Treasure Over the Water
The series
This three-part BBC adventure series for children told of two boys – Adam and David– who became involved in an unusual treasure hunt. The treasure itself was traditional enough – family jewels lost during the time of the Spanish Armada. While searching for it, however, the boys did not meet traditional enemies but faced all the frustrations of trying to unearth history.
