Time Team Special
During World War II, the Blitz destroyed countless homes, factories and civil defences. Dorchester Street in Shoreditch was one of thousands of streets in London that were bombed constantly, and was finally hit by a V2 long-range rocket bomb. Archaeologists from the Museum of London enlisted the aid of dozens of volunteers to excavate the street, now lying under grassland in Shoreditch Park. Time Team illuminates the finds with real memories as former residents are brought back to relive their experiences of the dark days of the 1940s. When is Time Team Special next on TV?
