Professor Alice Roberts and archaeologist Matt Williams present this year's most outstanding archaeology from the North of Britain. Sitting in the heart of the Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site-the Ness of Brodgar houses a 5000-year-old temple, at the heart of a sacred landscape, built out of stone over hundreds of years. Then, we catch the unearthing of a Roman altar dedicated to Jupiter that was originally carved in the second century, when Maryport was part of the coastal defenses linked to Hadrian's Wall. This episode also features a 5000-year-old cemetery with an intact Viking boat burial and a Tudor-era aristocrat's feasting hall.
