  • Hey everyone! A very special episode this week... We have met up with the man, the myth, the legend: Mr Richard Hemery!... For those who don't know, he is a Thames mudlark with over 15 years experience on the foreshore and an absolute pottery expert. Watch as we take him on a muddy adventure to the site of Roman kilns where he helps us identify amazing fragments of the Romans past! And some stunning Victorian pieces along the way...
    We really hope you enjoy the video, we certainly had a fun time out there in the mud and we loved hanging out with you Richard!

    Oioi squelch squad!
    We really hope you enjoy this longer episode featuring some very juicy finds with pottery expert and Thames mudlarking legend: Richard Hemery! It’s our first ever collab and we had such a great time messing around together in the mud, picking up amazing pieces of history and learning from Richard.
    Big Apologies about some of the audio in the video, it was just suchhhh a windy day but we have done our best with overdubbing etc. Smash that like button if you enjoyed it and let us know what you thought!
    We will be meeting up with Richard again soon for a Mudlark on the Thames so stay tuned for that too!
    Thanks again everyone and thanks Richard for an awesome adventure. Make sure you check out Richard’s Instagram and RUclips site!

      Don't worry about the audio... Those winds and lumps of mud make it hard for any kind of mic... The voice overs are well done and just watching you guys do your thing with so much joy makes you forget all about a few seconds of less audio. Great videos all the way and curious for the next one

    Richard is amazing - a walking encyclopedia, and such a nice guy! And he coped SO well with becoming very much an honorary Mudpie!

The shade of blue on that glass bottle is so pretty and so unusual. You really do have the coolest finds, always! Brilliant episode and looking forward to the next collab with Richard!

I love that you took Richard out to the Roman kiln area. He so deserves to have that chance and the three of you looked like you had so much fun. Plus the shared learning that you’ve now shared with us was very cool. Then the finds!!! Amazing, my favourite is the high end decorated piece that Josie found although there’s lots of great finds to choose from. Your channel is getting better and better. Did Richard have anything to say about the Roman pot you found in the last episode as yo what it would have been used for? My wish for you next is to find a Samian kiln area - ahh the drool 🤤
