  • In this Episode, we hear from conservator Barbara Wills how she went about making the repairs that were needed to restore the Sherborne cartonnage to it's former glory.
    It's also a big moment for Verena and the whole team when they finally flip both the base and the lid and see what's happening on the flipside.
    The conservation and the making of this film was generously sponsored by the John S Cohen Foundation.

    I love this whole series, but this episode showing the detailed technical side of conservation is my favourite so far. The knowledge, passion, care, practical know-how and inventive problem-solving genius of the conservators really shines through, and it's a joy to watch. Thank you, and I can't wait for the next episode!

    I REALLY believe you on this channel, and the BM are on to something, showing this conservation and restoration project. How about the other conservation areas of the BM? Stone, metal, fabric, ceramic, paper, velum, even human remains! I certainly believe that such episodes as you have so expertly filmed of the behind the scenes work of the BM, SHOULD continue. BRAVO to everyone involved 👏

      You do know, dude, that you don’t actually have to watch the series if you hate it so much?
      I mean, is someone there with you forcing you to watch it? Are you in danger? Write something nice if you need someone to come rescue you.
      Otherwise, Sven, just walk away, man. just walk away.
