Where to watch "Bonekickers"
6. Follow the Gleam
No release date yet
The team is called in to help with a dig run by a self-styled Indiana Jones figure, but their apparent discovery of King Arthur’s Round Table could be hiding an even greater treasure. The vain and conceited Michael Gift is a man more interested in being like Indiana Jones than making real archaeological finds. Once Gillian and her team get involved, they make what could be a significant discovery when they find the fabled King Arthur’s Round Table. Inevitably Gift steals the credit, but just as Gillian is about to confront him, she realises that their find has to be a fake. So just who has set them up and what are they really after? It soon becomes apparent the real treasure is King Arthur’s legendary sword Excalibur, and with the kidnap of Vivian it seems dangerous forces are at work to prevent Gillian, Ben and Gregory making a discovery.
5. The lines of war
No release date yet
The team travels to western France to get to the bottom of a mystery that originally seems to date back to the First World War, but actually has its roots even further back in history. When a British tank inscribed with the name Joan is discovered underground, it looks like its occupants were murdered in a horrific war crime. But as the Bonekickers delve further into their research they find that, although the tank is British, the dead soldiers are both British and German. Gillian gets news that her mother is seriously ill, and despite the best efforts of Vivian and the rest of the team, refuses to leave the dig. The team uncovers a daring conspiracy involving two sets of enemy soldiers whose shared passion for the past which lead them to try and work together for peace in the midst of major conflict, a plan that could have changed the course of European history.
4. The Cradle of Civilization
No release date yet
A discovery in war-torn Iraq is the catalyst for the reunion of old friends. The rest of the team get a few clues to Gillian's own past with the appearance of Kahmil Hammadi, who studied alongside both Gillian and Ben many years earlier. Artefact dealer Max Garris has shown Kahmil a unique serpent necklace found by a photographer working in Iraq, and wants the Bonekickers team’s opinion on it. But when Max is found dead and Kahmil is the one to find him, the team start to believe that their "old friend" has many things to hide. They discover that the artefacts found by the photographer hold prophecies to various great wars throughout the centuries and Kahmil believes that if he possesses them he could unite the divisions in Iraq.
3. The Eternal Fire
No release date yet
The team explores a mystery close to home as a cave linked to Warrior Queen Boudica is discovered near their UK base and Gillian and Ben find themselves in a race against time to escape dangerous gases when they're trapped underground. When a dig at the famous Roman Baths unearths a beautiful and ornate cave, it soon becomes clear that it was used to hold two prisoners. Team leader Gillian is convinced that Boudica wasn't killed in battle as believed, but was actually held captive for many years – could this be the place where she was hidden away? But who was the other one and what was their connection to the Warrior Queen? Unbeknown to the rest of the team, Gillian and Ben go back inside but are trapped as a tunnel collapses, and have to dodge centuries-old booby traps and toxic gases in their desperate bid to escape.
2. Warriors
No release date yet
The team is caught up in a dangerous political storm when they uncover the bones of 18th century slaves on the banks of a major river crossing. The team uncover what appear to be the remains of slaves being transported from England to America, and their media-hungry boss Daniel Mastiff decides that the discovery could lead to another television venture for him. The publicity prompts the involvement of leading figures in the black community, including Doctor Sarpong who demands that the bones are taken back to Africa. When Doctor Sarpong is found murdered, the Bonekickers realise they are up against a powerful society who will do anything to cover up the truth.
1. Army of God
No release date yet
The archaeologists find themselves fighting for their lives when an apparent miracle makes them the target of dangerous religious zealots. Gillian doesn't give new recruit Vivian the warmest of welcomes, but leaves the eager young intern alone at their latest dig while the rest of the team has to attend an important function. The inexperienced Vivian allows a young hospice nurse to get too close and she hurts her hand on a chunk of wood at the site. The nurse later tells the press that a dying patient made a miraculous recovery when she touched him with the same hand, and to Gillian's fury, hundreds of people descend on the dig as speculation mounts that the wood was part of the True Cross that Jesus was crucified on. Radical religious leader Edward Laygass wants to find the Cross to strengthen his plan to drive out other faiths.
