PastPorte helps museums, heritage & cultural attractions immerse their visitors in their stories - so they see, feel, smell and hear them as if they were real.

What is immersive storytelling (and why should museums and heritage attractions do it?) https://t.co/GIGVPmlxyR #museums #heritage

It's been a privilege to work with the excellent team at @HRP_Palaces and our friends at @LCIProductions to deliver the Halloween Trails at Hampton Court Palace and the Tower of London.

@SSGreatBritain @SallyBarn @BristolOldVic Yes, a scuttling rat! It's not in the @andyserkis-league but it's a start...

I'm missing the physical shopping experience as I fruitlessly search for a #PS5 online for my son. You know where you can see a product on the shelf, it doesn't suddenly disappear when you put it in your basket and it doesn't mysteriously vanish when you reach the till!

He had the extraordinary gift of making the complex simple, the everyday fascinating and everything hilarious. Happy retirement, Bill Bryson - you've earnt it (but you'll be missed!)

You’ve vowed to help firms in UK regions forced into lockdown @rishisunak. The travel industry has effectively been locked down since March – where is the dedicated support for this industry? 90k jobs are at risk/already been lost! #SaveTravel #SaveFutureTravel #Test4Travel

Some (still rather) sage advice from 1918...

@museumgirlldn Thanks for the mention, Katherine, that's really thoughtful. Just glad it's being used!

[Ben at PastPorte @PastPorte]

@museumgirlldn @sacha_coward Ahhh. People interacting with objects by touching them (and not needing to sanitize them before someone else touches them.) Seems like a lifetime ago...

@MonsoonHelp Having trouble placing an order online. Tried 2 credit cards and, although it appears the payment has been processed I've been returned to the order page (no confirmation.) Tried PayPal - they've acknowledged the payment they say it hasn't been processed by you.

On same date, 2m reduced to '1m plus' where 2m is not possible. This only applies to England. Scotland is reviewing but 2m rule will remain in place until at least 2nd July. No news from Wales yet.

Full guidance published later today.

Museums, galleries, theme parks and libraries can open from 4th July (as expected).

However, indoor play areas and waterparks need to remain closed.

@TalkTalk Hi. Don't worry. Sorted itself out. Thanks.

@TalkTalk I'm having problems with my WiFi (Cheltenham). Getting about 3Mbps rather than the usual 60.

We can transport you into the heart of a medieval battle, pitch you into a WW1 trench as you're about to go over the top or whisk you into the heart of Shackleton's Endurance as the sea ice crushes it - all from the QE2 Centre! #immersion #VAC2019

[Ben at PastPorte @PastPorte]

All set up and ready for #VAC2019 with a selection of immersive experiences to try.
