British Museum

Overview

Fiona Bruce and the team set up camp for another busy day as thousands of visitors bring their own treasures to the forecourt of the British Museum in London. It's a timely visit, as Fiona reflects on the A History of the World project. Meanwhile, the experts are kept busy with an intriguing array of objects including a pair of wooden pillars from HMS Victory that are thought to have witnessed the Battle of Trafalgar, and a dandy's outfit from the early 18th century. Plus the team meet an 8-year-old boy whose personal collection includes an MBE.
