The People at Horniman - Peter Springall, Beekeeper

Peter Springall first visited the Horniman Museum as a child and became entranced by the bees and the clocktower. After the second World War, he decided to become a beekeeper himself and this sprightly nonagenarian is still keeping an eye on the bees at Horniman and entertaining youngsters with bee tales.

Ever wondered why a bee dies after stinging you? Did you know that a bee can sting other insects without coming to harm though? The secrets of the honey bees are reveealed in the Horniman Museum's very own Bee Movie
