Episode 6. X Marks the Pot II.

The Empire Strikes Pot.

The Temple of Pot.

Back to the Future Pot II

(Sorry, this is too much fun...)


For metal detectorists, the plough is a miracle worker, bringing well-worked sites back to life - something George knows well from his Helmingham Hoard site where the plough helped unearth hundreds of gold and silver coins. So, when Paul discovers that their 'X Marks the Pot' Roman site has been ploughed for the first time in decades it means only one thing - there’s way more to be found.


Back they go for two days of serious digging, with detectors, finds bags, massive amounts of optimism and tons of questions in toe.

Like, what can the artefacts they’re desperate to find tell us about the ancients who lived there? Can Paul find the rest of his pot? And the big one - who will win ‘best find’?


To answer that, they call in an expert - trained archaeologist Ruby, who just happens to be George's girlfriend...

This... is X Mark the Pot II: Judgement Day.
