This time the lads conclude their long awaited Dig themed duology with Netflix's 2021 film "The Dig".
Quiet English excavator Basil Brown (Ralph Fiennes) is hired by wealthy Edith Pretty (Carey Mulligan) to excavate some burial mounds on her land as WW2 looms. As the mounds bear fruit the establishment of the historical community wrestle with Pretty for the finds and the fame. As Basil bonds with Pretty and her family and the lives of the other archaeologists including Peggy (Lily James) come to bear this dig will impact all their lives.
A beautiful and grounded period drama centred on Fiennes and Mulligan but stuffed with competing sub plots how does this dig hold up?
