Bayeux Tapestry Exhibit Gives Clues About the UK's Future

Not since the treasures of the boy pharaoh Tutankhamun arrived in London over 50 years ago has there been such excitement over a blockbuster exhibition. The Bayeux Tapestry commemorating Duke William of Normandy’s victory over King Harold’s Anglo-Saxons at Hastings in 1066 will go on show at the British Museum this week. Around 100,000 tickets were snapped up in minutes. The Times of London calls it “the loan of the millennium.”
