Who presented the UK version of Antiques Roadshow before Hugh Scully

Thank you for your question. Previous presenters on the UK Antiques
Roadshow include Arthur Negus and Bruce Parker. According to the BBC:

“Bruce began presenting South Today in 1967 and is now the longest
serving presenter in the BBC regional broadcasting. He was also the
first presenter of the Antiques Roadshow with Arthur Negus”

Hugh Scully joined the show in 1981 and fronted the show alone after
Arthur Negus’s retiral in 1983:
