Secrets of the Druids :: National Geographic Channel

Secrets of the Druids | National Geographic Channel

Secrets of the Druids next airs Sunday, March 29th, at 3 p.m. ET/PT on the National Geographic Channel. Details >>





As we see from the clip, this programme looks at the times and circumstances that are believed to have been the reason why Lindow Man was apparently sacrificed in the first century A.D., in what is believed to have been an attempt to stop the Roman invasion of Iron Age Britain in its tracks.

As far as I can tell, this airs only in the US, but I imagine this will be aired this side of the Atlantic in due course.

This sounds like the hypothesis of Anne Ross and Don Robins that they presented in 1989 as The Life and Death of a Druid Prince. There was a lot wrong with that book but I'll wait for the NatGeo show to comment further. (In 1989, Ross was a consultant for the National Geographic Society).
