Oh dear oh dear, can you guess what this rant is going to be about? Yup, you guessed it, Bonekickers! Archaeologically wrong, historically wrong, Scientifically wrong, technically wrong, using out of date conspiracy theories, mixing incompatible belief systems, mixing incompatible myths even! Wrong doesn't even begin to come close!
Yes I know it's only "Drama" but given the sensitivity of the subject matter, and the passion of adherents to the various belief systems the writers are messing about with, not the most coherent thinking perhaps!
I know some pretty decent people who consider themselves Templars, don't think they'll be overly happy!
Rant not even begun (I haven't even mentioned that they are supposed to be Wessex archaeology....Phil Hardings lot! Bet he ain't pleased either!) But will rant privately for the rest of the programme!

It made me laugh at least it was like a slightly cheesier version of relic hunter. And do you mean to sat thats not what archaeologists do, i was thinking of a career change.

Oh dear! It was a "play", "drama" fiction, not real. Y'know, like Dr Who, Eastenders, Shaun the Sheep! ( Extra points for guessing which of the above is least realistic! ;D BTW, "Bonekickers wasn't very good either!

Do you have a mole on your butt? If you do then you might just be able to become one if not sorry but no. Did the BBC not think the story of a person in the past & not giving a plotline for today would be interesting enough the Medieval season was interesting with Christina the Life of a Medival Woman. If they had done something along those lines then it would have been better. I'm just hoping that they will bring Being Human back.
