Following the most extensive archaeological excavation in Pompeii for a generation. Over the course of a year, an all-Italian team of archaeologists excavate an entire city block, Insula 10, in the north of the city. The team aims to unearth the buildings, their purpose, who lived there and what happened to them during the eruption.

The excavation begins with the discovery of a large brick-built oven. It begins as a mystery, as it is too big to be just for a private residence. But further investigations reveal it was part of a thriving commercial bakery, selling its bread wholesale to the people of Pompeii.
