Bone Detectives: Britain's Buried Secrets

Five Bronze Age bodies have been found in a deep pit in Kent. One of them, an old woman, has been manipulated into a position where she is pointing at something. But at what? And why?

Tori Herridge and a team of scientists attempt to piece together the lives behind discovered bones, and find out what happened to these people and how they died.

This episode comes from Andover, Hampshire, where the construction of a proposed car park outside the city has been held up by the discovery of remains from over 100 young men. The bones are discovered to date back to Anglo-Saxon times, but appear to have been left in a mass grave rather than granted the Christian burial that was normal for their era.
