Crossrail: More ancient skeletons uncovered, this time in known cemetery

Yet another clutch of ancient skeletons has been uncovered during excavations for the Crossrail transport project in central London.

We spoke to Don Walker, a senior osteologist with Museum of London Archaeology, about the significance of this particular find.
