5. The Dark Ages (2002)

After the Romans left Britain early in the fifth century, waves of other invaders moved in. Jutes, Angles, Saxon, Vikings and Norsemen, all left their mark during a turbulent period of British history. There's all the more fascinating for being so difficult to unpick. Without archaeology, we'd have precious little idea of what was going on during this period at all.
