Lindow Man: Druids & Human Sacrifice

Our last episode of season one takes us to Cheshire where, in the 1980s, two workmen stumbled upon a corpse, 2000 years old, marked with many baffling wounds. Theories and rumour swirled as to the cause of these injuries. 35 years later, Lindow Man still prompts debate amongst archaeologists: was he murdered, executed... sacrificed?

This episode focuses on human sacrifice and the role of druids in Late Iron Age Britain.

Next episode: Season One: An Epilogue
