Digging for Britain: East 1

Professor Alice Roberts and archaeologist Matt Williams present 2014's most outstanding archaeology. In the summer, archaeologists have been unearthing the nation's history in hundreds of digs across Britain. They have gone to extraordinary lengths to uncover long-lost treasures - retelling the UK's story in a way only archaeology can. With unique access to some of the country's best digs, the teams have been self-shooting their excavations to make sure the audience is there for every moment of discovery. In this episode, the programme is in the east of Britain, and the archaeologists join us back in the Norwich Castle Museum to look at the new finds and what they mean. Sites include: Must Farm, Colchester, Oakington, Lyminge, Basing House and Silchester.
