Anthropologist, author and broadcaster Professor Alice Roberts will be at The Courtyard in January with her new tour, Digging into Britain’s Past.

Alice Roberts has been delving into the history of Britain, and making archaeology programmes, for nearly 20 years. Alice joined Time Team as a bone expert before going on to present anthropology and archaeology stories on BBC Two’s immensely popular Coast series and co-presenting The Celts in 2015.

In this exclusive event, Alice will share insights, anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stories from her personal journey to explore Britain’s past, with footage from her programmes and excerpts from her books. The show will finish with a 20 minute Q&A.

Alice has presented seven series of Digging for Britain, sharing new archaeological discoveries from across the UK on BBC Four, and she has explored the history of our towns and cities in Britain’s Most Historic Towns on Channel 4. She has written eight popular science and archaeology books, including The Celts and Tamed: Ten species that changed our world.

Alice Roberts: Digging into Britain’s past will be at The Courtyard on Thursday, January 17 at 7.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit www.courtyard.org.uk.
