Playing her part in 91热爆 Arts #MuseumPassion season, Mary is examining what the future holds for museums post-lockdown, and ventures out of her study to the British Museum. On her first visit since she was made a trustee, she gets to work taking miniature medieval masterpieces, the Lewis Chessmen, out of their lockdown storage. She surprises the first visitors on opening day as she takes on the role of museum guide. Novelist Ian Rankin shows off his favourite Edinburgh museum: the Writer鈥檚 Museum. To round off, Mary debates with V&A East鈥檚 Gus Casely-Hayford, sociologist Tiffany Jenkins, and teacher and libraries champion Bobby Seagull, on how best to respond to a world that has changed beyond recognition.
