"Nazi War Digging" in the Mail


Katherine Rushton and Guy Walters, 'Channel 5 accused of disrespecting war dead after showing TV series Nazi War Diggers that was already scrapped by other stations for being ‘tasteless and ghoulish’ Mail  8 January 2016.
"The series follows two metal-detecting enthusiasts, a Polish relic hunter and an American military antiques dealer as they excavate battlegrounds across Eastern Europe".
No, the third guy is not "Polish". The comments underneath show how far we have to go to inform the British public (that's the ones that can read) about what archaeologists do.  David Connolly (he that in the past has vehemently defended artefact hunters and artefact hunting) making a brave effort there.
