Series 32: Museum Secrets (2010-2014)

This series was filmed with rare access to behind-the-scenes curatorial work and the collections of 22 of the greatest museums in the world during three seasons. It was a global hit, narrated by Colm Feore, distributed by BBC and broadcast in over 70 countries worldwide.

The History Channel commissioned a fourth season Museum Secrets, which was set to feature the British Museum, Rijksmuseum, Danish Museum and others. But the channel had just decided to pivot their brand into less history and more 'scripted reality' shows, and Museum Secrets was not renewed. This series includes research, development, and planning records for season four.

This series includes shoot tapes for all episodes on Professional Disk (XDCAM); rough and fine cuts, preview versions, and audio elements on DVD; and various broadcast versions of episodes on HDCAM and DVD.

Textual records include extensive research, location and appearance releases, correspondence with curators and historians, funding applications, tax credit applications, development documents, travel information, budgets and financial statements, cast & crew agreements, and scripts and transcripts.

Records related to the Museum Secrets interactive website and ROM iPhone app include development documents, marketing plans, correspondence and agreements with vendors, mock-ups, and web-exclusive content on DVD.
