Ancient Egypt - Life and Death in the Valley of the Kings

Description: In the first of a two-part programme, Egyptologist Dr Joann Fletcher investigates what life was like for ordinary Egyptians 3,500 years ago. Fletcher discovers how Egyptians travelled to work, looks at how tombs were built and even gets an insight into Egyptian interior design. She also gains access to the rarely seen final resting place of Amenhotep III in the Valley of the Kings. The second part reveals the ancient Egyptian afterlife, as Fletcher clambers into rarely visited tombs, explores a treasure trove of long-buried objects and examines spectacular mummies to discover just why the Egyptians spent a fortune preparing for death - and what they hoped to find when they got there.
