Join Si and Matt as they search the Thames foreshore in search of relics from London's past. They make discoveries going back to the Roman Period and much more besides. Another episode of amazing 'Luck in the Muck'!

The oldest existing bottle of wine in the world was taken from a Roman era tomb in Germany and it is a rare Roman glass flagern but they didnt use corks or stoppers there was olive oil on top of the wine!
