River Hunters - Season 3

Season 3

The new series once again pairs river detectorist and US YouTube sensation Beau Ouimette with TV presenter Rick Edwards, as they delve into the depths of Britain's watery past. As in previous series, Rick and Beau will be joined by diving archaeologist Gary Bankhead as well as a team of local detectorists and historians in each episode, who – in some cases – have waited years for the opportunity to search these historic sites. 

Using state-of-the-art underwater technology, live drone footage and accounts from the period, Beau and Rick perform the first underwater archaeological surveys in some of the most exciting and iconic historical sites in Britain, often in dangerous and fast-flowing water.

The new series will see the River Hunters travel across Scotland, England and Wales in their bid to uncover items of historical significance in the rivers which bore witness to some of the most iconic moments in British history, including the Roman occupation, the Welsh uprisings of the thirteenth century, the Wars of the Roses and the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745.

An investigation into the last pitched battle to have taken place on British soil, the Battle of Culloden in 1746, on the outskirts of Inverness. Rick Edwards and river detectorist Beau Ouimette search for clues as to where Bonnie Prince Charlie, crossed the River Nairn as he fled the battlefield pursued by government forces. The battle was to have an impact for decades to follow on those on the losing side, the Jacobites who wanted to restore the Stuart lineage to the British throne. The Jacobite forces were shot down as they carried out their famous Highland Charge across the moorland, and some of those who survived escaped and crossed the River Nairn in an attempt to return to the relative safety of their homelands.

The Welsh Rebellion

Rick Edwards and Beau Ouimette head to north Wales to investigate waterways that may contain signs of the medieval Welsh Rebellion. Conwy Castle was constructed by Edward I between 1283-1287 after the Welsh Rebellion of 1282-3. The castle was part of a chain of fortifications known as the `Iron Ring of Castles" and was both a material and symbolic sign of English power and dominance. Edward I selected its site on a high rock perched above the estuary of the River Conwy so that the castle could be supplied by the river in times of siege. Day two finds the pair at Ruthin Castle, a medieval fortress overlooking the River Clwyd.
