Hugh Dennis and the team take on their first prehistoric dig as they try to unearth ancient roundhouses in the village of Stretton in Staffordshire. Their mission is to work out just how far back in time the settlement dates - is it Bronze Age, Iron Age or from the early Romano British period? Nobody has ever excavated the site before, and for the first time the team dig up a school playing field
