  • Seen in close-up, we see the keys of a Steinway grand piano. The esteemed manufacturer’s logo Steinway & Sons is written above the words Patent Grand and New York & Hamburg. This piano was part of an auction held by Bonhams of the contents of Stokesay House, a Victorian mansion that was locked up for decades but being sold off after the last member of the rich industrialist family of John Derby-Allcroft whose ancestors could no longer afford the property’s upkeep. Its contents of almost pristine collection of Victoriana personal effects and furniture, clothing, and memorabilia that was largely stored away from the fading and deteriorating qualities of daylight, went under the hammer and the house is now a hotel. The piano was in almost perfect working order apart from the yellowing ivory keys having been covered under cloth.

  • London's Theatre Royal in the capital's Haymarket, currently showing Shakespeare's The Tempest starring Ralph Fiennes. The Theatre Royal Haymarket (also known as Haymarket Theatre or the Little Theatre) is a West End theatre in the Haymarket in the City of Westminster that dates back to 1720, making it the third-oldest London playhouse still in use. Samuel Foote acquired the lease in 1747, and in 1766 he gained a royal patent to play legitimate drama (meaning spoken drama, as opposed to opera, concerts or plays with music) in the summer months. The original building was a little further north in the same street. It has been at its current location since 1821, when John Nash redesigned it. It is a Grade I listed building, with a seating capacity of 888.

  • Visitors enter the Coca-Cola corporate museum in the company's Atlanta headquarters. Beneath a giant corporate sign encased in a spherical design, the family of parents and young children enter the building near the 1996 Olympic stadium. Small square windows allow small amounts of light into this museum, a tribute and celebration to this American fizzy drink known around the world. Originally intended as a patent medicine when Atlanta and Fulton County passed prohibition legislation in 1886, John Pemberton responded by developing Coca-Cola, essentially a non-alcoholic version of French Wine Coca. The first sales were at Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886.
