The world-famous Body Worlds exhibition will be making its return to the capital London at the O2 Arena from Friday October 24th 2008.

Gunther Von Hagen’s Body Worlds and the Mirror of Time exhibition has already been seen by more than 25 million people worldwide.

Real human specimens that have been preserved in a process called Plastination will form part of the display, which is intended to be as educational as it is fascinating.

More than 200 real human specimens are featured in the exhibition, which will have a special focus on health, ageing and well being.

It will also feature details of what happens to the body when it experiences disease and succumbs to the ageing process.

Those making a day of their visit could be tempted to book a coach or hire car to the O2 to ensure they make the most of their visit.
