Poor journalism. The Bayeux Tapestry has nothing to do with "British" or "UK" history. These names and concepts didn't exist until 1606 and 1801 respectively. It's the story of the 1066 Norman invasion of England, not Britain and not the UK.
Correction - first time in England. It is permanently on display in Bayeux, France.
The BBC need to BBC Verify their own Headline title. The Bayeux Tapestry has been available to view in Bayeux right up until the museum housing was closed foe renovation and the tapestry crated up to deliver to London. FFS, BBC. Get it right. Bayeux is only on the other side of La Manche. You can get a ferry from Portsmouth to Ouistreham and then it's just a short drive to Bayeux. I saw it there 6 years ago.
Dr Musgrove needs a drug test.

My $20k tech gold, ETFs, turned into $80k 🚀 2026, which is officially the year of total freedom for all investors. it has been an amazing journey. I'm feeling more motivated, confident, and blessed than ever as I head into 2026.
Irks me that the french claim this as there's when we made it and the Norman's weren't french they were northmen literally the same bloodline as the Anglo Saxons who were already here . Suprised it didn't arrive shrouded in white flags, on boat like De Gaul or the boaties arriving daily now
Are you telling me Norman women wore head coverings?
Shared History 🇫🇷🇬🇧
It’s probably made in Iran or china 1000 years ago 😂😂😂
Satan is the force pulling us apart. All racists side with the devil.
Saw it in France when I was a child. It's just a giant tea towel. Don't bother. 😁
The British stole that from its rightful owners.<br><br>You are entitled to your opinion but not the FACTS.
