The Museum S01E09 - Things Aren't What They Seem

Mike Neilson is an artist and specialist replica-maker who is responsible for making copies of some of the Museum's most important treasures. He is currently casting an exact copy of a colossal Egyptian statue of pharaoh Amenhotep III. Down in the basement curator John Taylor examines a collection of what seem to be mummified Egyptian animals, but x-rays reveal an entirely different story. Meanwhile, curators from the Museum's Middle Eastern department are called on by customs to help sort out a possible case of smuggling.
