Secrets of the Imperial War Museum: Episode 4
In Sheffield, cameras follow Dean who discovered a chest full of lost First World War letters and artifacts under a bed when he was clearing out his stepfather’s house. For head of First World War Alan Wakefield, it’s just the collection he’s been looking for, and he helps Dean understand more about the history of the objects he’s discovered.
For the first time, the Imperial War Museum has allowed cameras behind the scenes. This series uncovers rarely heard first-hand accounts, and reveals the pressure faced by hundreds of IWM experts and volunteers as they work to preserve the most important objects and stories from our wartime past.
