Title: Secrets of the Staffordshire Hoard explored in TV show TONIGHT Post by: Kev on January 26, 2012, 05:47:15 PM BBC Two at 20:00 Since it was discovered by a metal detector enthusiast in 2009, the Staffordshire Hoard has captured peoples' imaginations. Over 3,500 pieces of Anglo-Saxon treasure were discovered in a farmer's field and the quest to try and work out the mystery of how and why it ended up there began. A new BBC TV programme, hosted by historian Dan Snow, tries to unravel the secrets of the hoard. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-16740667 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-16740667) Title: Re: Secrets of the Staffordshire Hoard explored in TV show TONIGHT Post by: anthonyjay on January 26, 2012, 07:19:15 PM I watched the first show last year and it is awesome.

So a tip for all us detectorists do not take no for the final answer until you have asked at least seven times. ;D ;D
