37: John Preston: Beyond The Dig - Sutton Hoo

In this exclusive interview, critically acclaimed author of 'The Dig', John Preston chats to Time Team's creator and Series Producer, Tim Taylor, to discuss one of Britain's most incredible archaeological discoveries: Sutton Hoo. They consider the amazing discovery of the Anglo-Saxon burial by Basil Brown and Edith Pretty (as recently portrayed in the Netflix film adaptation), and the state-of-the-art survey techniques that Time Team is now deploying at the site to help us uncover more of its secrets. Copies of John's book 'The Dig' are available to order in our shop here. The original video interview is available to watch here.
