"Does anybody else have an underpants situation...?"

Well, ok, Bonekickers didn't entirely win me over - but a line like that is enough to persuade me that I should probably watch next week's episode anyway. :)

I'm not quite sure what it's trying to be. Time Team-ish. Yep. But then mix in some right-wing religious crazies, a touch of Tomb Raider and a few extras from Highlander. Hmm.

Now, I'm not an archaeologist - and I'm not going to fuss too much over procedural errors if the show is generally fun. But if people are going to wind up dead (and some of them do) then I'm curious as to how the characters explain this away. Based on this episode, it seems that they go to the pub.

Well, ok, fair enough. But this isn't Doctor Who and it isn't Life on Mars. They aren't police and they don't have psychic paper. If they're going to end up getting people killed - in self-defence, of course - shouldn't someone be asking questions...? Are they reporting it or concealing it? I can accept that the 'regulars' might have had similar situations before the show started... but the new recruit? Shouldn't she be a little... concerned... about this?

Lara Croft never has these problems. Normally that's because she's hundreds of miles from civilisation, not messing about in the hidden chambers under somebody's outhouse, though...

At least they record stuff before they yank it out of the ground.
