Digging Up Britain's Past

Henry VIII's Lost Palace (1x2)

Data di messa in onda: Gen 12, 2019

Helen Skelton and Alex Langlands join a new dig at Elsyng Palace, one of nearly 60 royal residences owned by Henry Vlll and one of his favourite homes during his last decade. The dig unearths more clues to the palace's architecture and splendour, and of Henry's life and times, with finds including the remnants of a working oven and a 16th-century groat - worth about four pence in Tudor times - featuring a portrait of Henry's face.
