Bone Detectives: Britain's Buried Secrets

Utterly underwhelming historical / archaeological series. There is nothing new and it seems to be little more than an opportunity to promote a series presented almost wholly by women.

It's repetitive and not very interesting. The presenters exhibit little in the way of screen presence and the jumping from studio to location serves little purpose. I've watched parts of 2 or 3 of these and won't be bothering again.

I love this show please make more episodes pleasepleaseplease!!! I especially love the episodes about the really old skeletons but the ones about skeletons from the industrial revolution were cool too. I love how the information is presented in a crime documentary way (especially when there wasnt actually a "crime" involved in the persons death). Anyway i need there to be more episodes of this. Thank you.

This is so insulting to the viewer. It is so amateurly scripted and directed. You can see the presenters queueing up to say their lines, inane and risible as they are. This is something that I would have expected to see as a six year old on kids TV back in the 60s. The fact that this is being shown this on primetime evening TV now shows how much the media has "dumbed down"

I am a semi retired teacher who produced a book which Prof Sir Michael Rutter described as an interesting and informative guide. In all my years of teaching history I have never understood how who the Beaker People were until this series. The BBC is over rated and it is great to watch these off beat series on History eg Walking Roman Roads, which have a fresh outlook. Lead presenter excellent.

This was information overload and grew boring very quickly. Personally felt like i was reading a textbook rather than being entertained. Herridge was especially droning. I agree with others that it was repetitive and uninspired. Nohing more should be made like this again. Please spare us. The concept had a lot of promise but unfortunately they grossly missed the mark. Im sure these people are very educated and qualified but it doesnt mean they should be allowed to have an entire netflix show. Very basic and maybe could have been ok, but no. I would skip this if you are considering giving it a watch.
