Netflix drama film The Dig about the Sutton Hoo excavation has proven to be quite the lockdown hit. Carey Mulligan stars as the widowed Edith Pretty opposite Ralph Fiennes’ self-taught archaeologist, who she hires for a dig on her land in 1939. One of the fellow archaeologists who joins the team is Lily James’ Peggy Piggott, portrayed as something of a bumbling and inexperienced sidekick who accidentally puts her foot through the top of an Anglo-Saxon burial chamber.
