This is becoming some circus! Our Indiana Jones wanna be has started his fashion brand. I strongly recommend Zahi Hawass leaves our antiquities alone, and stick to his “eponymous menswear line.”

The thing about Zahi Hawass is that he IS such an over-the-top character – and if you made him up in fiction, you’d be accused of exaggeration or creating a caricature rather than a character. He is certainly arrogant, bullying and self-serving. But in some ways his brusque manner and inability to suffer fools gladly is part of his – dare I say it – “charm”.
The one area where he can’t be allowed to get off the hook is his hypocrisy. He swims with the tide – the Egyptian government when it was strong; the opposition when it weakened. I suppose that would make him a great civil servant in the “Sir Humphrey” mould.
