In 1801, Thomas Bruce , the Seventh Earl of Elgin and British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, removed antiquities from Turkish-occupied Athens. Huge debts later forced him to sell his collection to the British government, and sections of the Parthenon Frieze were put on display at London's British Museum - where they have remained ever since, despite Greece's repeated requests that they be returned.
In this dramatised documentary, critic Andrew Graham -
Dixon explores the convoluted history of the sculptures, artefacts whose ownership has been the biggest bone of contention in art for over 200 years, while experts consider the arguments for and against the relics' return to Greece.
