Episode description
T E Lawrence and the Ghostly Motorcycle of Clouds Hill
Colonel Thomas Edward Lawrence CB DSO was a British archaeologist, army officer, diplomat, and writer, who became renowned for his role in the Arab Revolt and the Sinai and Palestine Campaign against the Ottoman Empire during the First World War.
Lawrence lived (for a time) and died in Dorset. Tales have been told of his ghostly motorcycle haunting the road where he died. There’s a conspiracy theory about his death, did he die? Or was he taken somewhere else? His ghost has also been seen in several places nearby.
We visited Lawrence's home: Clouds Hill, the site of his grave: St Nicholas' Church, Moreton, and the site of his effigy: St Martin On The Walls Church, Wareham.
