Dame Judi Dench as museum exhibits is very fitting for such a national treasure
You’ve got to love museum Twitter. We’ve seen them compete to find the best bum or the creepiest object and – of course – which one had the best duck.
Now, the York Museums Trust have shown one of our most precious national treasures, Dame Judi Dench, as …some other national treasures – and it’s everything you could hope for.

If this comment from the Mary Rose Museum is anything to go by, we know what space to watch.
This is amazing, we love it! 👏 👏
Any ideas as to who we could compare our collection to? 🤔 https://t.co/3GImF52vga
