I have to say, NM is very persuasive when it comes to the idea of the universalist museum - I'm so easily lead! ;)<BR/><BR/>I missed last night's episode of The Museum as well (it was about human bodies and repatriation).

But there was a longer review and a gushing portrait of Neil MacGregor in last week's Sunday Times: http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/visual_arts/article1738468.eceUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15557536653424218415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33352276.post-38108671145220368592007-05-13T15:27:00.000+01:002007-05-13T15:27:00.000+01:00And I really do think you should pitch that idea f...And I really do think you should pitch that idea for a fly-on-the-wall documentary about a department of Museum Studies to the BBC, btw. ;)The Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15418156698058196228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33352276.post-91647697010870783652007-05-13T11:46:00.000+01:002007-05-13T11:46:00.000+01:00Well, the ten mins or so I saw wasn't as dull as t...Well, the ten mins or so I saw wasn't as dull as the reviewer makes it sound. Though that could just be because I have an invested interest in museums, as it were! I'm particularly looking forward to the third episode, 'The BM Goes East' and the final instalment 'Beyond Bloomsbury', which sounds like it's going to cover social inclusion, outreach, accessibility issues.The Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15418156698058196228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33352276.post-51625092107162561932007-05-11T16:55:00.000+01:002007-05-11T16:55:00.000+01:00Sadly I missed it because ...
