Timeshift: Sir Mortimer Wheeler - A Life in Ruins

SADRžAJ

Profile of Mortimer Wheeler, who became the public face of archaelogy for almost 40 years. With the arrival of television in the 1950s, the energetic and charismatic Wheeler became a celebrity and was the first to bring the subject to a mass audience. From Dorset to the Himalayas, from Television Centre to Zimbabwe, a vast array of archive footage shows how Wheeler informed and entertained the viewing public.
