An initial ground scan took place on October 14.
A film company which covered the discovery of the remains of Richard III has confirmed it will be airing the documentary following the search for King Harold next year.
Oval Films worked alongside Stratascan to carry out an initial ground scan in Abbey Gardens in Waltham Abbey on October 14.
It has today confirmed that the documentary following the hunt will be aired on television between April and May 2015.
Author Peter Burke, who is sponsoring the search, said: "I will not be looking at the results until I am with the film company so we can film reaction.
"I'm feeling confident."
