Palaeontologists Discover The Largest Fossil Ever Found In Britain

This week on Digging for Britain we witness the dramatic recovery of the largest complete fossil ever found in Britain - a 10.5 meter Ichthyosaur, also know as the 'sea dragon'. Then, we excavate a fortified Knights Hospitaller manor, a rare glimpse into the Crusaders' support network in the medieval English landscape; and unearth an Anglo-Saxon cemetery in Cambridge, revealing a complex transition from Roman rule and challenging our understanding of the Dark Ages.
