Yes. Punters quite like it but I get annoyed by the huge video wall (a gimmick that wastes space and achieves little) and the video mithraeum, which is not a patch on the old Museum of Antiquities one. People also find it awkward having to hunt down techy translations for the inscriptions (whereas in the MoA they were right there, on the plinth). And don't get me started on the wolves or the ruddy Tyrannosaurus Rex...!
