Glad he isn't being depicted as a "racist, homophobic, evil White Male" - as so many in the past are.

I'd love to see the exhibit, especially this:

An original copy of Geoffrey Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales,” the first book printed in English, shows how Becket’s story quickly became rooted in public imagination.

Spent a day in The British National Museum in the 80’s.

Great place! Loved it.

Becket looked just like Richard Burton.
