Britain at Low Tide (also known as Shoreline Detectives) is an archaeology and social history television programme that debuted on Channel 4 in 2016,[1] with further series in 2018 and 2019.
It was originally co-hosted by former Time Team and Victorian Farm contributor, archaeologist and historian Dr. Alex Langlands and Natural History Museum palaeobiologist Dr. Tori Herridge.
The premise of the programme was that the presenters, Alex Langlands and Tori Herridge visit parts of Britain's coast along with coastal archaeologists showing their finds and the history behind them.
