S14E02 There's No Place Like Rome - Blacklands, near Frome, Somerset
Episode Overview
The team heads to Somerset to explore the remnants of a small Roman villa from shortly after the Roman invasion in 43 AD. However, earlier digs indicate it may have been inhabited by locals instead of Roman settlers. Could this site have been established on the grounds of an earlier Iron Age community? Joining the team are Roman experts John Creighton and Tom Moore, while Claire Ryley creates a genuine period garden. To everyone's surprise, members of the Stranglers also make an unexpected visit.
