I'm really looking forward to seeing @lucyworsley.bsky.social 's new programme about #MaryI to which I contributed in a small way. I've never seen myself on TV and I have a feeling I'll be so self-conscious I'll be hiding behind the sofa...It airs on 24 January.

Today's top pick is all about signage & wayfinding! In a previous life, I looked after S&W for a huge museum & so I probably pay a weird amount of attention to it when we're out & about.

This year, I particularly loved this floor signage in the lift at the #Waterford Treasures: Medieval Museum!

Now, onto my top #ruins of the year! Popped to #Pontefract a few weeks ago and stumbled across the beautiful All Saints Church, a 1960s church snuggled in the ruins of a 14th/15th century church destroyed during the civil wars. Absolutely beautiful 😍

#PontefractCastle #Yorkshire

It allowed visitors to make informed choices around viewing mummified people and openly addressed current debates clearly and displayed some truly stunning pieces of ancient Egyptian art.

Our best surprise visit of the year was undoubtedly seeing the "Displaced: From the Nile to the Derwent" exhibition at #Derby Museum & Art Gallery just before it closed. The interpretation was honest, respectful, and thought-provoking.

And this is why we have costumes for both littles and bigs. 😁
