Antiques Roadshow lovers who caught the summer stop in Madison could see themselves on television this spring.

The Madison-area Roadshow is tentatively set to run on Feb. 15, 22 and March 1, 2010 on Wisconsin Public Television (Channel 21), Monday nights at 7 p.m. NOTE: An update from WPT said these dates may be moved because they conflict with the winter Olympics.

The television show started in the United Kingdom and has aired on PBS since 1997. It's popular with antique lovers all over the country because it allows people to bring in old items, from samovars and kettles to toys and quilts, and have them evaluated from a historical and monetary perspective.

The Antiques Roadshow filmed at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison on July 11. The current plan is to show them over three episodes in February and March.
