Secrets of the Bayeux Tapestry: Inside the Museum

Across 70 metres of exquisitely embroidered scenes, the Bayeux Tapestry tells the story of one of the most seismic events in British history - the Norman Invasion of 1066.

Michael Palin narrates as historians and experts unravel its secrets, following the painstaking efforts to bring this priceless work of art back to the UK, where experts believe it was made, for a once-in-a-millennium exhibition at the British Museum
