Synopsis

Two Bohemians set out to find Roman era remains in the British countryside. When the amateur archaeologists unearth a skeleton they proudly display it as evidence of their theories. However, Mrs Bradley is unconvinced and the tests she has made reveal the skeleton is much more recent, likely a murder victim of the past decade.
