Renowned historian and Wanderlust contributing editor Bettany Hughes is back on our screens with Seven Wonders of The Ancient World – and the series will make use of augmented reality (AR), allowing viewers to explore the lost sites.
Bettany begins with The Great Pyramid of Giza: the eternal resting place of King Khufu. Next is the Pharos Lighthouse: its beam guiding seafarers to safety and said to be visible over 30 miles away.
Bettany embarks on an extraordinary journey through Greece, exploring the tales of two ancient wonders: the Colossus of Rhodes and the Statue of Zeus
On a breathtaking journey along Turkey's west coast, Bettany reimagines the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and Temple of Artemis
