Series 18 Episode 2: Saxon Death, Saxon Gold

Tony Robinson takes his merry band of archaeologists to Leicestershire to investigate life and death in Anglo Saxon Britain. The team are intrigued by metal detecting finds and pottery scattered across the fields, which suggest they're on the site of a high status Anglo Saxon burial ground. By the end of day one there's no sign of a cemetery, in spite of the evidence. However, all that changes the next morning.
