Just ran across another interesting BBC show, Bonekickers. Bonekickers is another creation from the mind that brought you "Life on Mars" and "Ashes to Ashes". The story line follows a group of archeologist who uncover artifacts and trace their history.
In the first episode the team uncovers some artifacts that shouldn't be in England, Syrian coins. This discovery leads to evidence of the Knights Templar and a race to find the true cross of Jesus.
I liked the first episode and it was interesting while at the same time offering a fun viewing of what could be in history. I'm sure most of the story lines will be mostly hyperbole but should stimulate your interest in history.
The only item that bothered me was this hint to something in the main actress's history and current obsession. Something about her late mother's obsession with some belief that she was ridiculed and discredited over. It seems her daughter has taken the torch on and is quietly working to prove her mother's belief. What was annoying is just generic hints and no real information on what this belief/obsession entails. Would have been nice to have more of a clue to what it is. Hopefully upcoming episodes will clear things up more and provide some more clues on this interesting back story line of interest.
Defiantly plan to keep watching, hopefully they will clue us in a little more on this mysterious history in the upcoming episodes.
