BBC - Digging for Britain Series 3 (2015) Part 3 North

Digging for Britain: Series 3

Professor Alice Roberts and archaeologist Matt Williams present 2014's most outstanding archaeology. In the summer, archaeologists have been unearthing our history in hundreds of digs across Britain. They have gone to extraordinary lengths to uncover long lost treasures - retelling our story in a way only archaeology can. With unique access to some of the country's best digs, our teams have been self-shooting their excavations to make sure the audience is there for every moment of discovery.

Part 3: North

Alice Roberts and Matt Williams explore finds from archaeological digs across the north of Britain, and begin at the Ness of Brodgar in the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site, where they view a 5,000-year-old temple. The presenters witness the unearthing of a Roman altar in Maryport, Cumbria, examine discoveries from Flixton in North Yorkshire that are around 11,000 years old, and travel to a cemetery in Ardnamurchan in the Highlands. Plus, a Tudor-era feasting hall, and a hoard of Pictish treasures.
