    As a metal detectorist and river detector i found your video very informative. Very interesting to know which bits of pottery came from which era. Amazing to think that bits of history just wash in and out on a daily basis for centuries. Bet there has been a nice bit of gold, gold coins and other rare coinage cropped up that you have found. I will have a weekend in London and do some mudlarking myself at some point 100% very interesting

    What a fascinating thing that mudlarking is! I ran across your video during a search for Turner and the Thames. I was absolutely astounded at what you found along the river. Archaeology has been a casual hobby of mine since childhood, so this held great interest. That's for sharing your finds!

    Thanks Richard, even though I'm a bit of a mudlarking pottery nerd myself, at least used to be, I found your video is brilliantly informative, I can't quite believe how much you found in one session and you found what I have always hankered after, a face from a medieval jug - very jealous. Your video really captures the pleasures of mudlarking, it has made me quite nostalgic. I'll spread the word about your great videos via twitter. Thanks again Julia

    Hi - I have just started to get into metal detecting again and stumbled across your video by chance. Really interesting - I never realised that you can gain so much information from a few shards or pot. I used to mudlark on the foreshore at Battersea when I was at school over 40 years ago now and your video has brought back good memories for me. Excellent.

    Very informative video which gives a nice history lesson while retaining the thrill of the hunt. The post commentary going over each piece kept with images of completed examples brings the learning experience further.

    Very informative. Have wanted to do this for years. Found a small organised tour company online and I'll be down from the Midlands for my first foray in March.
