Professor Alice Roberts with the very best in British archaeology 2016 - filmed by the archaeologists themselves, straight from the trenches, so you can see each exciting discovery as it happens. The teams then bring their best finds - from skeletons to treasure - back to the Digging for Britain lab, to examine them with Alice and reveal how they are changing the story of Britain. Finds include: new revelations from 'Britain's Pompeii' - the 3,000-year-old perfectly preserved village in Cambridgeshire - including how our Bronze Age ancestor's designed their homes; the theatre where Shakespeare premiered Romeo and Juliet and Henry V, complete with sound effect props and evidence that the original audience was much rowdier than you might expect; evidence that we may have finally found the location of the Battle of Barnet, the Wars of the Roses site where Edward IV defeated Warwick the Kingmaker in a battle that would eventually bring the Tudor dynasty to England's throne.
