    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This series shows Howard Carter and Evelyn Herbert, the daughter of Lord Carnarvon in a possible romantic relationship. This is actually incorrect and the estate of Lord Carnarvon had to issue a statement that contradicted this claim.
    • Goofs
      Carter refers to Lord Carnarvon's daughter as Lady Evelyn Carnarvon. Whilst the title is Carnarvon the family name was Herbert. She was Lady Evelyn Herbert. Carter would have known of this.
    • Quotes

      Lord Carnarvon: [as Carter first peers into the tomb] Can you see anything? Carter, can you see anything?

      Howard Carter: Yes, wonderful things.

    7/10
    Thoroughly enjoyed
    Lots of the other reviews here are quite critical of this show for some of its liberties with the details to the point of one criticising the colour of the stone!!

    Not being someone who intimately knows about this subject I wont pretend to question their reasons for so much hate but I will say that I found it both interesting and entertaining as did my 10 year old son who is very excited to see the final episode when it airs.

    I found the acting acceptable, but not exceptional, I have certainly seen far worse in some other recent prime time shows. I think the show hit the balance between the history lesson and entertainment so that all ages could be drawn into the story and learn something in the process.

    Isn't that the sign of a good show? No hate here, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this.
