Episode One: Army Of God
Μύ
The excavation of 14th-century medieval soldiers alongside Saracen coinage in Somerset leads to the hunt for the True Cross.
Μύ
Brilliant archaeologist Dr Gillian Magwilde has a passion for history and a hunger for the truth. She's aided by her loyal team, forensic expert Dr Ben Ergha, eager new intern Viv Davis and the erudite but disreputable Professor Gregory Parton.
Μύ
Using their archaeological skills the team discover that the medieval soldiers were Knights Templar. Analysis of a small piece of cedar wood from the dig indicates that it's 2,000 years old – and from the Holy Land. Could it be part of the True Cross?
Μύ
Gillian needs to buy some time to survey the site, but right wing religious extremist Edward Laygass, who believes that the country is at war for its Christian soul, acquires the land and declares it Holy Ground.
Laygass calls on a cell of violent modern day crusaders to aid him in his quest, and the team find themselves in mortal danger.
Μύ
An enigmatic symbol carved on the back of a crucifix could give them the clue they need to find the True Cross...
