The criticism Marc Fennell always gets for Stuff the British Stole

Marc Fennell has returned with the third season of his popular historical documentary series that examines artifacts held in Western institutions and their origins in colonized regions. The Walkley Award-winning journalist spent two years developing this latest installment, which continues his investigation into cultural heritage and repatriation questions. Fennell is approaching the season with particular intensity, treating it as though it may be his final opportunity to tell these stories.

The series addresses significant questions about cultural ownership, colonial legacies, and the responsibility of museums to return artifacts to their countries of origin—issues that remain contentious in global cultural institutions.
