I seem to remember that Tutankhamun exhibition at the O2 (Millennium Dome still, back then?) being alright? The one back in '07-'08? I'm not sure they had the main golden casket, but the artefacts they found in the tomb were fascinating.

I know I was astounded by some of the techniques they used and the expertise and craft with which they were made all the way back when.

You are largely right, but they had advertised it visually very differently - on what people could expect to see - and for the price it really wasn’t better value than a special exhibition at the BM. I’m clearly still sore about it almost twenty years later!
