- 4. Coventry, West Midlands - Watchmaking Sector1998-12-12Coventry is known for car manufacturing and the bombing of its cathedral, but did you know that, in the 18th and 19th centuries, it had a thriving watchmaking sector? This week, three teams of history hunters investigate the few remaining factory premises, the archives and the beautiful products of Coventry craftsmen to shed light on a little known corner of this city's history.
- 5. Liddesdale, Scottish Borders - Scottish Border and Related Ballads1998-12-19In the 15th and 16th centuries, the Scottish border was as lawless as the American Wild West, with raiders known as reivers robbing, pillaging and murdering with surprising frequency. At the same time, their feats were celebrated in a series of romantic ballads. This Saturday, three teams of history hunters investigate some of those ballads to find out the truth behind them by perusing ancient documents, examining maps and trekking through the undergrowth to uncover the meagre remains of this exciting period of Anglo-Scottish history.
- 6. Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire - Middle Age Abbey1999-01-02Burton upon Trent is renowned for the beer made there, but back in the Middle Ages, it was the site of a very important abbey. This week, three teams of history hunters try to find out as much as they can about this once-tremendous monument. Is there anything remaining? What happened to it? And what connection did it have with a magnificent house on a hillside some three miles away?
- 7. Marshfield, Gloucestershire - Malting1999-01-09The Gloucestershire village of Marshfield is now an up-market dormitory for the cities of the West Country, but in the past, it was a focus of brewing.

This Saturday, three teams of history hunters try to discover the physical remains of malting in Marshfield, how one particular family was involved in the trade and how the needs of malting shaped the surrounding agricultural landscape.
