The Beefeaters Return

For the first time in 70 years, a new Monarch is about to be crowned, and It’s all hands to the pump as the fortress prepares to mark this historic event. Ravenmaster Chris Skaife welcomes a new Raven to the tower, and Chief Curator Tracy Borman experiences a career highlight as she attempts to track down the owner of a rare gold ring with possible historical significance. And there’s sadness too at the Tower as they prepare to bid a fond farewell to a much-loved member of the Beefeater family.

New series of Inside the Tower of London, starts Thursday 2nd November at 8pm on Channel 5.
