In this fascinating BBC TV series, made in 2011, historian and archaeologist Neil Oliver travels the British Isles to tell the story of the very beginnings of our land and its people. Series Two sees Neil Oliver focus on Britain before and during the Roman occupation, and covers a period from 1000 BC to 400 AD. It shows how a thriving Iron Age Britain became part of the Roman Empire, heralding an era of luxury for some and harsh subjugation for many; it reveals how Celtic communities survived north of Hadrian’s Wall and around the fringes of the island and examines how a new Romano-British culture emerged from the bitter struggle for Britannia.
