A team consisting of history professor Lucy Preston, soldier Wyatt Logan and engineer Rufus Carlin is sent back in time using a prototype machine to capture him.

Hot on his trail, the Time Team need to be bolder than ever and call upon one of history's unsung heroes if they're going to have a shot at setting things right.
