Templar's Tunnels, HMS Victory and Troy: The World's Best Historic Sites with Dan Jones

We explore the stories behind some of the world's best historical sites.

The two great Dans of history - Dan Snow and Dan Jones - team up to explore the stories behind some of the world's best historical sites. Dan Jones explains the mysteries of the Templars' Tunnels in the Old City of Acre and Dan Snow tells the story of Nelson's last moments on HMS Victory (now in Portsmouth's historic dockyard). They explore the myths and reality of Harselik - believed to be the site of Troy- as well as Easter Island and Runnymede where the Magna Carta was signed.

Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore.
