ITV Home Entertainment Bonekickers - Season One
Description
Powerful secrets from the past are brought roaring into the 21st century in this thrilling prime time series from the creators of Life On Mars. Packed with historical mystery and contemporary action adventure, this witty and fast-paced series centres on a team of talented archaeologists working at the front line of history. They are led by the feisty and passionate Dr Gillian Magwilde (Julie Graham – William And Mary), who is following in the footsteps of her brilliant mother both professionally, and in her obsession with finding the greatest relic in history. Each spine-tingling episode is a window through to an exciting period of history, including the excavation of murdered 18th century slaves, the possible discovery of the True Cross, the looting of Babylonian relics from the Iraq War and the exploration of secret chambers underneath famous Roman baths. Using state of the art techniques and old-fashioned digger’s instinct, Gillian and her team – forensic expert and her former lover Dr Ben Ergha (Adrian Lester – Primary Colors; Hustle), the brilliant but lecherous Professor Gregory Dolly Parton (Hugh Bonneville – Notting Hill) and eager young intern Viv Davis (Gugu-Mbatha Raw – Doctor Who) – piece together incredible stories and conspiracy theories from the past that resonate strongly in the present, thrusting the ‘bonekickers’ into thrilling, deathdefying adventures. Behind-the-scenes footage also available.
