Ep 1:
The Soldier in the Cellar Wall
In 1953, a terrified teenage plumber watched Roman soldiers march straight out of solid stone in a York cellar — then spent his life defending every "wrong" detail he saw.
Ep 2:
The Watchers Who Shared His Secret
Harry wasn't alone: a warden and a keeper had their own chilling encounters, while a 1960s excavation beneath York Minster began unearthing stunning proof of what he'd witnessed.
Ep 3:
Lives Behind the Legion's Mud
Behind the mud and ridicule lay real men — their brutal training, stolen bedding, dice games, love letters, and the hard-won citizenship waiting at service's end.
Ep 4:
Why the Soldiers Stopped Marching
Decades later, theories collide — Stone Tape recordings, time slips, fading apparitions — as the question remains why Harry never wavered from the truth of what he saw.
