Hadrians Wall

[Kegluneq]

Being able to look closely at an item is as important as any video display that works half the time and has a lowest common denominator sort of presentation.

Okay, this I can definitely agree with. Why some museums/galleries insist on using touch screens, I do not know - any more than a few years old rarely work. I'm pretty sure even Tullie House had a few defunct displays and that gallery only opened last year.

Appealing to the 'lowest common denominator' is still a pretty important task for any museum though, and museums along Hadrian's Wall should be applauded for the care and consideration they have put into providing good context for their displays.
