From the Real Downton Abbey to the discovery of Tutankhamun. Join us for a tour of Highclere Castle, with the opportunity to explore the Egyptian Exhibition in the Castle cellars. There is the earl’s best friend, Prince Victor Duleep Singh, the pleasure-loving eldest son of Maharaja Duleep Singh, last emperor of the Sikh empire. (The author steers clear of the theory recently aired in a Channel 4 documentary that Prince Victor was also best friends with Almina, and that Henry, the Carnarvons’ eldest son and heir, was the result.) I didn't get a feel of how The Earl came to go there in his early years, just 2 mentions 'oh and he went to Egypt'....lots of horse racing, golf, general travel....
