At the Prehistoric Autopsy HQ in Glasgow, anatomist professor Alice Roberts and biologist Dr George McGavin go on an extraordinary evolutionary journey to meet three of our ancient ancestors. They travel the globe to gather evidence from leading scientists and work with model makers to reconstruct our predecessors-revealing how they lived and comparing them genetically to modern humans. Episode 1 covers the latest research on Neanderthals, and brings us face to face with our 70,000 year old relative
