Veronica Robertson's New Boyfriend - Will You Be the Face of This Thing?

In 1988, Veronica Robertson told the London Times that she hadn't known anything about the plan. The metal detector enthusiast claimed that Veronica Robertson joined them on at least one dig. She said it wasn't until after the hair was found that her boyfriend, John Gard, told her that the treasure hunt winner, the so-called Ken Thomas, was actually his colleague Doug old Thompson. Frank Branson later wrote that he thinks John Gard knew the general location, but it was only when he saw the holes dug by the two physics teachers that he was able to get closer.
