- Filming begins at heritage sites for new BBC show
Historian Dan Snow has been filming at Housesteads Roman Fort in Northumberland this week in preparation for National Treasures Live, a new programme that will give BBC viewers unique access to some of Britain’s most exciting venues, including restorations, digs and heritage sites.

Dan said: “Housesteads Roman Fort is arguably one of the most interesting and picturesque sites along Hadrian’s Wall and as a World Heritage site steeped in Roman history, it made perfect sense for us to include it within the episode dedicated to Romans.“We look forward to the show being broadcast and hopefully viewers at home will be able to take away as much from the series as both Michael and myself have and visit Housesteads Roman Fort for themselves.â€
