Another chance to see the five Chronicle films that follow archaeologist Howard Carter's quest for the richest treasure trove ever found.

The richness of the treasures found in the tomb of Tutankhamun created a bitter conflict between the Egyptian authorities and archaeologist Howard Carter. With the death of Lord Carnarvon, Carter was left alone, without his sponsor, to deal with an increasingly tense political situation as Egyptian nationalists struggled to free themselves from British colonial rule. It took Carter and his team ten years to clear the fantastic funerary objects from the tomb and to reveal the mortal remains of the king. Written and presented by Christopher Frayling.
