The Team goes in search of a possible Anglo-Saxon settlement at Knave Hill in Leicestershire. Only eight such sites have been fully excavated in the whole of Britain. Can Time Team claim to have found the ninth? Tony is skeptical, but almost immediately Phil uncovers some exciting evidence. They are joined by medievalist Helena Hamerow and geneticist Bryan Sykes. Stewart investigates the surrounding locality with Anglo-Saxon historian Sam Newton. Phil's DNA is tested to find his ancestry.
