    That fanfic ending of the Bayeux Tapestry in Reading is an obvious Victorian fabrication. The original depicts the c-base space station crashing on earth. It can be viewed in Berlin:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;bergie&#x2F;46619220061&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;photos&#x2F;bergie&#x2F;46619220061&#x2F;</a>

    As an aside, I see that this blog has been around from early 2000s, and has been regularly updated, almost every day. Quite fascinating...

    I saw this. It was done by Victorian embroiderers, and was amazing, but the part I remember is one of the incidental characters. In the original, he was quite conspicuously nude; in the reproduction he was given a pair of shorts.

      Yup, the article has images behind hyperlinks if you want to see him naked. Just Ctrl+f: &quot;the original design with everything hanging out. &quot;

    What&#x27;s up with the internet&#x27;s sudden obsession with the Bayeux Tapestry? I&#x27;ve seen so many posts lately here and on reddit and other places.

    Someone should do a graphic novel version of the Bayeux tapestry based heavily on the original.
