of this Tutankhamun.

If I'm right, that would mean
that he is buried here.

Yes, wonderful things.

My God! There's more.

This is the burial chamber.

Yes, we did.

that to favour one newspaper

be so incompetent?!

will remain to oversee progress.

that some items from the tomb

176
00:11:52,093 --> 00:11:54,867
Carter, go and see the man.
177
00:12:00,173 --> 00:12:01,867
Mr Carter?
178
00:12:01,892 --> 00:12:03,867
It was so good of you to come.
179
00:12:05,983 --> 00:12:07,917
He's been asking for you.
180
00:12:10,173 --> 00:12:12,148
Will you talk to him?
181
00:12:12,173 --> 00:12:13,428
Of course.
182

183
00:12:15,383 --> 00:12:17,638

00:12:20,423 --> 00:12:22,318

Good day, sir.

186

Mace says that...
187
00:12:31,423 --> 00:12:37,917
...moisture may be damaging items
in the burial chamber.
188
00:12:37,942 --> 00:12:40,508
Well, I haven't been
back to the tomb,
189
00:12:40,533 --> 00:12:42,358
but yes, I should think.
190
00:12:42,383 --> 00:12:45,838
What can be done about it?
Well, the first thing
191
00:12:45,863 --> 00:12:49,328
would be to get them clear
of the confined space.
192
00:12:50,533 --> 00:12:52,508
Out into the dry air.
193
00:12:52,533 --> 00:12:54,588
Yes, yes.
194
00:13:02,743 --> 00:13:05,508
Do you love her?
Yes.
195
00:13:06,822 --> 00:13:08,997
Yes, I do.
196
00:13:13,433 --> 00:13:17,278
Life can seem very short suddenly.
197
00:13:19,822 --> 00:13:22,718
And a chap ends up wondering
what might have been.
198
00:13:26,822 --> 00:13:29,808
I've been a fool, Carter.
199
00:13:29,833 --> 00:13:33,323
I really am... (COUGHING)
..very sorry.
200
00:13:33,348 --> 00:13:36,193
But you forgive me?
201
00:13:36,218 --> 00:13:38,433
There's nothing to forgive.
202

He's strong.
203
00:14:06,309 --> 00:14:08,563
He'll fight this off.
204
00:14:12,699 --> 00:14:14,643
What can I do?
205
00:14:16,949 --> 00:14:19,284
Go back to the dig.
206
00:14:19,309 --> 00:14:21,313
He loves to hear about the work.
207
00:14:21,338 --> 00:14:23,393

Oh.

With doors, as you see.
234

There are four gilded shrines,
nested one inside another.
235
00:16:53,768 --> 00:16:57,910
And once we'd removed the shrines,
we found the sarcophagus.
236

And those paintings,
237
00:17:01,966 --> 00:17:04,312
they're the funeral rites
and the procession.

Ah, that is the sarcophagus.
240

On each corner there is a goddess,
241
00:17:14,106 --> 00:17:18,544
and that is the goddess Isis with
her wings outstretched, you see?

Then we'll get ropes underneath
the lid.

but he is dead.
355
00:26:17,218 --> 00:26:21,113
This site is the responsibility
of my department.
356
00:26:23,377 --> 00:26:26,553
Is there anyone else down there?
No. What's going on?
357
00:26:26,578 --> 00:26:28,913
Get out my bloody way.
358
00:26:28,938 --> 00:26:30,913
Carter?
359
00:26:37,778 --> 00:26:39,303
What are you doing?
360
00:26:43,377 --> 00:26:45,303
Give me that key.
361
00:26:45,888 --> 00:26:47,993
No.
362
00:26:50,098 --> 00:26:52,073
Very well, sir.
363
00:26:52,098 --> 00:26:54,073
If you wish it.
364
00:26:56,578 --> 00:26:59,142
By order of
the Antiquities Service,
365
00:26:59,167 --> 00:27:02,022
I am revoking your permission
to dig here.
366
00:27:02,047 --> 00:27:06,193
Leave at once or I will have you
escorted from the area by the police!
367
00:27:14,617 --> 00:27:17,522
LACAU: I do take your points.
368
00:27:17,547 --> 00:27:21,233
But I cannot countenance any further
involvement from Mr Carter.
369
00:27:24,617 --> 00:27:26,983
As I understand it, Mr Lacau,
370
00:27:27,008 --> 00:27:30,063
while we speak,
the coffin remains open to the air.
371
00:27:30,088 --> 00:27:33,342
The contents are inevitably
deteriorating.
372
00:27:33,367 --> 00:27:35,342
It is the discovery of our age
373
00:27:35,367 --> 00:27:38,142
and you are allowing it
to fall the pieces.
374
00:27:38,167 --> 00:27:40,033
It is not matter of my allowing -
375
00:27:40,058 --> 00:27:44,423
My father's expenditure, time and
funds has furnished your department
376
00:27:44,448 --> 00:27:47,883
with the greatest archaeological
discovery the world has seen.
377
00:27:47,908 --> 00:27:50,833
And neither you nor this department
378
00:27:50,858 --> 00:27:54,313
has had to lift one finger or paid
one penny for this to happen!
379
00:27:54,338 --> 00:27:56,243
Lady Evelyn, if you please...
380
00:27:57,218 --> 00:28:00,423
...I'm sure that matter will be
settled in time.
381
00:28:00,448 --> 00:28:03,783
Your father's estate is seeking
compensation.
382
00:28:03,808 --> 00:28:06,913
And all it took was the threat
of legal action (!)
383
00:28:11,698 --> 00:28:13,713
Every minute we waste here,
384
00:28:13,738 --> 00:28:16,472
the contents of the tomb
are rotting away.
385
00:28:19,778 --> 00:28:22,392
I have no argument with you,
Lady Evelyn.
386
00:28:23,627 --> 00:28:26,963
I am more than happy for you
to finish what your father started.
387
00:28:27,808 --> 00:28:30,472
As soon as you wish.
Thank you.
388
00:28:32,528 --> 00:28:36,113
And who shall I engage to oversee
this work, Mr Lacau?
389
00:28:36,138 --> 00:28:40,113
In your opinion, who do you feel
is the best qualified Egyptologist?
390
00:28:40,138 --> 00:28:43,323
Obviously we need someone
with first-hand experience
391
00:28:43,348 --> 00:28:46,863
of excavating and preserving
3,000-year-old funerary goods.
392
00:28:48,018 --> 00:28:51,633
Perhaps you could give me a list
of suitable experts?
393
00:28:53,177 --> 00:28:57,113
I think we both know
there's really only one man.
394
00:29:05,268 --> 00:29:07,222
What's all this?
395
00:29:07,247 --> 00:29:10,073
This is the world turning, old boy.
396
00:29:10,098 --> 00:29:12,553
The latest edict from on high.
397
00:29:13,658 --> 00:29:16,073
From now on,
anything found in the valley
398
00:29:16,098 --> 00:29:18,833
is the property
of the Antiquities Service.
399
00:29:18,858 --> 00:29:21,482
Not just royal tombs
- anything at all.
400
00:29:21,507 --> 00:29:23,993
A scrap of faience,
a copper thimble,
401
00:29:24,018 --> 00:29:27,323
it goes straight to Cairo.
You don't get a cent.
402
00:29:27,348 --> 00:29:29,763
You must be joking?
I wish I were.
403
00:29:29,788 --> 00:29:34,123
The man can't justify digging
under those conditions. No-one can.
404
00:29:34,148 --> 00:29:36,073
Everyone's going home.
405
00:29:39,018 --> 00:29:41,482
Everyone except you.
406
00:29:44,507 --> 00:29:47,323
You'll have to swallow your pride,
I'm afraid.
407
00:29:47,348 --> 00:29:49,633
Apologise to Lacau.
408
00:29:49,658 --> 00:29:52,116
Not in person.
A note of hand would do it.
409
00:29:52,911 --> 00:29:55,633
And then you can go on as before.
See it through.
410
00:30:06,718 --> 00:30:10,183
Well, I can be as humble
as the next man.
411
00:30:10,208 --> 00:30:12,903
Really?
You know, if I didn't apologise...
412
00:30:14,407 --> 00:30:17,663
...if we didn't get access
to that tomb again...
413
00:30:17,688 --> 00:30:20,303
I was thinking,
would it be so very bad?
414
00:30:22,648 --> 00:30:25,462
Well, then nothing would have
to come to an end.
415
00:30:25,487 --> 00:30:27,462
For how long?
416
00:30:32,598 --> 00:30:34,413
A lifetime, maybe.
417
00:30:34,438 --> 00:30:37,212
So long as it remains unfinished...
418
00:30:39,688 --> 00:30:41,903
...we're here.
419
00:30:41,928 --> 00:30:44,342
Aren't we?
420
00:30:44,367 --> 00:30:46,983
And out here...
421
00:30:48,287 --> 00:30:50,462
...anything is possible.
Carter -
422
00:30:50,487 --> 00:30:52,853
I have been searching
my entire life.
423
00:30:52,878 --> 00:30:56,212
And for years now,
I thought it was the tomb.
424
00:30:56,237 --> 00:31:00,212
The tomb. When I find the tomb
I will feel complete.
425
00:31:01,648 --> 00:31:03,573
I will be Howard Carter.
426
00:31:06,928 --> 00:31:08,853
But I've found it.
427
00:31:09,728 --> 00:31:12,063
Standing there that first night...
428
00:31:12,728 --> 00:31:14,933
Surrounded by treasure...
429
00:31:16,128 --> 00:31:18,063
So much beauty.
430
00:31:20,318 --> 00:31:22,743
The only thing I wanted
to look at was you.
431
00:31:28,487 --> 00:31:30,623
I thought...
432
00:31:30,648 --> 00:31:32,743
I was hoping you could have this.
433
00:31:33,928 --> 00:31:35,853
Do you remember? You...
434
00:31:36,037 --> 00:31:38,342
picked it up because it -
Carter, stop it.
435
00:31:38,367 --> 00:31:40,142
I'm getting married.
436
00:31:47,648 --> 00:31:49,903
You...you came back. You're here -
437
00:31:49,928 --> 00:31:52,183
I had to get you your dig back.
438
00:31:52,208 --> 00:31:54,142
That's why I came.
439
00:31:59,678 --> 00:32:01,701
And...who is he?
440
00:32:07,378 --> 00:32:09,372
His name's Beecham.
441
00:32:09,397 --> 00:32:11,633
He's a baronet. (CHUCKLES)
442
00:32:11,658 --> 00:32:13,322
Ah.
443
00:32:13,347 --> 00:32:16,093
Right thing to do.
Family and the estate.
444
00:32:16,118 --> 00:32:19,122
And for you?
The right thing to do for you?
445
00:32:21,758 --> 00:32:23,843
Yes, and what's he like? ls he...
446
00:32:25,147 --> 00:32:27,683
Hm? What's he like?
447
00:32:27,708 --> 00:32:30,122
He's nothing like you.
448
00:32:42,147 --> 00:32:44,093
Good bye, Evelyn.
449
00:32:47,118 --> 00:32:50,043
Don't be silly.
There's no goodbye between us.
450
00:32:50,068 --> 00:32:52,923
Yes, well, there is, though,
isn't there?
451
00:32:52,948 --> 00:32:54,923
Really.
452
00:33:05,708 --> 00:33:07,643
Good bye, Carter.
453
00:33:24,198 --> 00:33:25,763
Well?
454
00:33:25,788 --> 00:33:28,363
(swans)
Well, we'll get the dig back.
455
00:33:29,838 --> 00:33:32,283
Good boy. It's worth it, you know?
456
00:33:33,198 --> 00:33:35,122
Yes, indeed.
457
00:33:35,748 --> 00:33:37,723
What is it?
458
00:33:37,748 --> 00:33:39,723
It's nothing.
459
00:33:41,198 --> 00:33:43,533
Would you tell the chaps?
460
00:33:43,558 --> 00:33:45,533
Of course.
461
00:33:58,388 --> 00:34:00,283
Roll up, roll up!
462
00:34:00,308 --> 00:34:03,202
The greatest show on Earth
is back in town.
463
00:34:03,227 --> 00:34:06,763
Last chance to see
the wonders of the age.
464
00:34:24,198 --> 00:34:26,563
(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)
465
00:34:42,948 --> 00:34:44,893
Mind your step.
466
00:34:46,107 --> 00:34:48,413
Looks much the same.
467
00:34:51,668 --> 00:34:53,643
Can we have the lights, please?
468
00:35:07,948 --> 00:35:09,893
Oh, my word!
469
00:35:12,638 --> 00:35:15,923
Well, we need to re-rig,
get the whole thing clear.
470
00:35:16,638 --> 00:35:19,523
What about the coffin?
Ah.
471
00:35:24,438 --> 00:35:27,853
There's some surface patination.
It's not bad.
472
00:35:27,878 --> 00:35:30,573
No, it's not bad. Thank God.
473
00:35:35,668 --> 00:35:38,252
(GREETS)
474
00:35:45,798 --> 00:35:46,723
(SCRATCHING)
475
00:35:56,078 --> 00:35:58,053
We missed you at dinner.
476
00:35:59,438 --> 00:36:01,573
I bring scraps from the feast.
477
00:36:01,598 --> 00:36:03,573
That's good of you.
478
00:36:03,598 --> 00:36:05,973
Erm, put them down there,
would you?
479
00:36:18,928 --> 00:36:22,053
They filled the outer coffin
with pitch, you see.
480
00:36:23,008 --> 00:36:25,733
Rather clever, really,
because everything inside
481
00:36:25,758 --> 00:36:27,903
would be perfectly preserved but...
482
00:36:27,928 --> 00:36:30,413
it's the very devil to remove.
483
00:36:31,758 --> 00:36:33,573
You can't heat it up, of course.
484
00:36:33,598 --> 00:36:35,703
You just have to take it off
bit by bit.
485
00:36:36,548 --> 00:36:39,653
Carter, it's the middle
of the night.
486
00:36:41,078 --> 00:36:45,092
Yes, well, it doesn't really
matter underground, does it?
487
00:36:45,117 --> 00:36:47,092
Any case, best to press on.
488
00:36:47,838 --> 00:36:49,773
Lot of work to be done here.
489
00:36:52,518 --> 00:36:54,453
Can I help?
490
00:36:58,678 --> 00:37:00,173
Thank you.
491
00:37:10,198 --> 00:37:12,132
(BLEATING)
492
00:37:35,367 --> 00:37:37,293
Winlock.
493
00:37:39,008 --> 00:37:40,933
What?
Wake up.
494
00:37:40,958 --> 00:37:42,933
Come and see this.
495
00:38:24,247 --> 00:38:27,613
(JOURNALISTS CLAMOURING) Excuse me?
Sir, turn this way. This way, sir.
496
00:38:27,638 --> 00:38:29,653
Just for a moment, sir.
One second...
497
00:38:29,678 --> 00:38:31,613
Over here, sir.
498
00:38:43,638 --> 00:38:46,863
Mr Merton? Yes.
Come through. Thank you.
499
00:38:55,088 --> 00:38:57,383
It's...
500
00:38:58,728 --> 00:39:00,663
..astonishing.
501
00:39:01,478 --> 00:39:03,663
I've never seen anything like it.
502
00:39:03,688 --> 00:39:06,383
Nobody has.
503
00:39:06,997 --> 00:39:12,663
3,000 years ago, a 12-year-old king
led his people away from their past.
504
00:39:13,968 --> 00:39:15,892
Away from their mistakes.
505
00:39:17,528 --> 00:39:19,453
Brought them here.
506
00:39:25,688 --> 00:39:29,102
These three coffins were
nested inside each other.
507
00:39:29,127 --> 00:39:31,102
Like Russian dolls.
508
00:39:35,448 --> 00:39:38,743
Somebody asked me once what
the Pharaohs were like.
509
00:39:40,448 --> 00:39:43,173
I said they weren't
that different from us.
510
00:39:44,167 --> 00:39:46,102
Some of them were kind or...
511
00:39:47,247 --> 00:39:51,142
...cruel, wise, foolish.
512
00:39:51,848 --> 00:39:54,142
They fell in love.
513
00:39:54,167 --> 00:39:56,433
They strove for immortality.
514
00:39:56,458 --> 00:39:58,433
Just like us.
515
00:40:04,768 --> 00:40:07,183
I think you have your story,
Mr Merton.
516
00:40:07,208 --> 00:40:09,793
(CHUCKLES) Yes.
517
00:40:12,328 --> 00:40:13,663
Excuse me.
518
00:40:18,688 --> 00:40:20,613
These past years...
519
00:40:22,458 --> 00:40:24,943
...have been an extraordinary
privilege.
520
00:40:25,927 --> 00:40:28,102
To be...
521
00:40:28,127 --> 00:40:31,053
so close to beauty...
522
00:40:33,688 --> 00:40:36,383
...l wish it could've lasted longer.
523
00:40:36,408 --> 00:40:38,972
And as for Tutankhamun himself...
524
00:40:40,568 --> 00:40:45,383
...it was Lord Carnarvon's wish -
and it is mine also -
525
00:40:45,408 --> 00:40:48,902
that his body remain where
it was laid to rest.
526
00:40:48,927 --> 00:40:52,022
We will seal the sarcophagus
over him.
527
00:40:53,127 --> 00:40:55,053
And leave him in peace.
528
00:40:59,718 --> 00:41:01,663
It has been an honour.
529
00:41:04,728 --> 00:41:06,703
That's all I have to say.
530
00:41:06,728 --> 00:41:08,703
