Netflix s The Dig has been slammed as sexist for reducing an experienced archaeologist to a bumbling, deferential, sidekick to her husband .
The film depicts the unearthing of the famous Anglo-Saxon ship burial at Sutton Hoo in Suffolk and stars Ralph Fiennes as self-taught local archaeologist Basil Brown and Lily James as 27-year-old excavator Peggy Piggott.
Mrs Piggott was the wife of archaeologist Stuart Piggott - played by Ben Chaplin - who arrived at the Suffolk site with imperious academic Charles Phillips (Ken Stott).
During the dig at the burial mounds, Mrs Piggott - who was two years younger than her husband - unearthed with her trowel a small gold and garnet pyramid, the first exciting glimpse of bejewelled treasure.
