The River Hunters are back for a third series on Sky History, due to premiere in November.
DURHAM underwater archaeologist Gary Bankhead has spoken of his excitement after a third series of River Hunters was announced.
The new series, due to air on the Sky History channel in November, once again pairs river detectorist and US YouTube sensation Beau Ouimette with TV presenter Rick Edwards, as they delve into the depths of Britain’s watery past.
As in previous series, Rick and Beau will be joined by diving archaeologist and the series’ resident expert Gary.
Using state-of-the-art underwater technology, live drone footage and accounts from the period, Gary, Beau and Rick perform the first underwater archaeological surveys in some of the most exciting and iconic historical sites in Britain, often in dangerous and fast-flowing water.
