Tutankhamun: The Last ExhibitionNovember 18, 2022

Egypt. Valley of the Kings. It was November 26, 1922, when, after making a small hole in the plaster over an underground doorway, British archaeologist, and Egyptologist Howard Carter, first set eyes on the burial chamber in the tomb of the pharaoh Tutankhamun. The room, piled with objects, was still practically intact and would soon become legend. 'Can you see anything?' asked Lord Carnarvon, amateur archaeologist, and the financial backer of the expedition. 'Yes, wonderful things,’ said Carter. To mark the occasion of the Centenary of this revolutionary discovery, Tutankhamun: The Last Exhibition for the very first time offers viewers an amazing opportunity to meet the pharaoh, relive those unique moments, and have the exclusive chance to see how 150 objects from the treasures of Tutankhamun were moved to the biggest international exhibition ever dedicated to the Golden Boy.

Tutankhamun: The Last Exhibition was broadcast on SBS ONE at Friday 18 November 2022, 08:34.
