The fourth of eight programmes Yankees at the Court of King Wiglaf
In August 1980 a party of 15 American volunteers arrived at Repton, Derbyshire, to join an archaeological excavation. They included businessmen, housewives, students and retired professors, most of whom had never done any archaeology before. All had paid for the privilege of working hard in a muddy trench in a wet English summer.
Chronicle follows their three-week progress. Do the rain, the Repton mud and the school dormitories get them down? How is a site excavated from the cabbages downwards? Is the mound in the vicar's garden just a Victorian garden feature or a Viking burial?

The fourth of eight programmes Barney Pityana
For an intelligent black man in South Africa, confrontation with authority is unavoidable. After a lifetime of banning orders, prison sentences and frustration, BARNEY PITYANA helped Steve Biko to found the Black Consciousness Movement. When Biko was killed in prison, Pityana was in solitary confinement. When he was released he decided that the only way to help gain freedom for his fellow blacks was to leave behind family, friends and country and flee into exile.
