Lois & Tara, Australia Time team came back as a clear favourite, so for one of the national conferences we decided to contact Time Team so that Tony or one of the team could come along and give a talk. The format changed and little was really seen of the dig. All the members of the team are keen to promote archaeology, I once witnessed Phil Harding rushing from trench to trench when TT were in York, stopping, turning off his radio and spending time talking to some enthusiastic kids about what he was doing, how he was doing it and why, the kids were transfixed by his enthusiasm, his ability to communicate his subject at many different levels being an inspiring sight. This did happen in fact, but the show kept going with Mick Aston and (Sir) Tony Robinson always at the helm. Rest in peace, Mick, you added more to peoples lives than you probably ever realised.

Hes the archaeological consultant, he might have an opinion about that (see CA 271). The onscreen introduction of team members and their specialist skills was a hangover from a time when participants would have varied from week to week, rather than coalescing into a core group. The site, discovered by historian and metal detectorist Keith Westcott after years of research, could be one of the biggest villas uncovered in recent times. From Phils glee over Stone Age flints, Tonys wisely playful and challenging banter, Micks sage hand on the digs tiller, Johns gentle determination to get the best cartography the technology can provide, Franciss round house fireside mussing on an Iron Age mans joys in life and Stuart goes walk about so we can get the lay of the land and know our place in it was amazing, every bit of it.

This program has opened up so much of Great Britain to me and I am in love with suach a picturesque landscape and such a rich history. Channel Four seem to be missing a trick that gthe BBC would have undoubtedly have profited from by issuing DVDs of the most important digs over the years. why isn't phil harding in the new time teambt whole home disc keeps disconnecting. and spoke about his decision to adopt a vegan diet. Certainly the revamp for the 2012 programmes didnt do the programme any favours but another reason for the loss of viewers even before that must have been the lack of a fixed time in the schedules.

Philip Harding DL FSA (born 25 January 1950) is a British field archaeologist. Mick, and Phil, and even Tony all made a significant contribution to our understanding archaeology and they way in which it can inform us of our past. Oh well, TV is doomed. Eat umble pie you are having a laff. My wife was unwell for many years but TT was one of the few TV Shows that she got pleasure from. But it just goes to show how Time Team in ingrained in our family! To anyone who loves the Sunday afternoon history fix as much as I do PLEASE sign! Yes as convicts and bloody proud of it. The programmes were sometimes slight and of course a three day dig is only a sketch rather than a full canvass, but Time Team enriched my life. I WONDER what rubbish they will put on instead. I will have to content myself with watching the 4OD repeats for ever now. Its a shame we didnt see you and the team doing more international locations. Just recently I saw a show about Egypt using satellite infra red survey archaeology that could reveal all the subsurface features accross a whole landscape. You clearly have no idea what youve done. Which terminal does Virgin Atlantic fly from at Heathrow? I thought the programmes inspiring and my grief was genuine at its loss of experts like Mick Aston and the programmes ending.The occasional sighting of a long lost member like Carenza Lewis in a published Report makes me wish for the experience as it unfolded once again. well done on ending one of the best programs on tele. We are headed to the UK in May from the US to see some of the TT sites. Prof Mick, great bloke and always so calm, Carensa made a lot of episodes more entertaining and TR a god of comedy and history.

They were like a 70s open university program with their hairstyles and clothes. You were apparently watching a different show than we were. Apparently, there was plenty of dirt being dug off camera, thanks largely to the people up top. Also, a Presenter is not supposed to insult the experts he is reporting on. A 15-year-old boy has today been convicted of the murder of Ian Kirwan, 53. but our family loves Phil. Whichever fool(s) cut it, perhaps they are now also, goneso please bring Time Team back it was a great staple! Partly, we all feel we are losing old friends after all this time but theres so much trash on TV that its no surprise that its loss is so keenly felt. I am a mega fan of the show. I am one of the over 40s over 60 in fact. I too wonder why they stopped it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I always made sure be there watching when it was on. I was just looking for where any dig sites would be this year and discovered the program was being axed! Its prototype was Timesigns, a four-part series that aired in 1991. A viewers petition is probably the most difficult to achieve. I got fed up with running and prancing, daring to contradict real aercheologists. I and my husband have learned so much over the years (and are still learning): not only about archeaology itself, but about interpreting architecture, landscapes and social history, to name but three. She completely ruined it, and led to Mick Aston walking out on the show. Hated that they axed Mick Aston and brought in other new people!!! I would be very happy, if it was revived. I started looking to find more information about the history of Henham park & was so sad to see the show has been axed. Piss-up and brewery certainly spring to mind. I love time team. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVRe_gMtXNo, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Time_Team_episodes, I Have Fallen In Love With Land Rover Freelander! How about a petition to Channel 4 demanding its continuation? I ask other time team regulars get writing and see if time team can be saved either by another tv station or a rethink by channel 4. I have several friends who are serious archaeologists who have been dismissive of this program over the years, some of their comments about the lack of time for each dig are valid. WHY? The technology now at our disposal, and a new generation of archaeologists joining the team, is a fantastic prospect. The medal is awarded once in every three years for work on the Prehistory of Man. Phil Harding and family at Buckingham Palace, 12 December 2006. I agree with Brian, a petition might make Ch4 sit up and realise that we, the viewers, have got brains and like to watch programs with interesting and informative content. Much as I still love watching them (though, annoyingly, More 4 often shows the same programme a week later), I can hardly bear to think there will be no more new ones. May be he could be a Lord? There is definitly an opportunity for BBC2 together with The Open University to take over when Time Team ceases. All the repeats are still amazing, I also watch ime team every day without fail.

It is located on the Broughton Estate in Oxfordshire, belonging to the Fiennes family. Obliged to cut evaluation trenches to meet the deadlines of multi-million pound construction projects, the 1990s saw a surge in short-term excavation projects.

Thank you to everyone who made this such a wonderful programme. Channel 4 subsequently announced that the final Time Team series would be broadcast in 2013. Ive loved Time Team since day one, but recently Ive found it becoming a little too cozy. They tried an American version but it didnt have the natural chemistry that the original had. It was a formula that worked for the target audience and trying to attract a different audience by dumbing down the content was like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. Incidentally, to my British friends & fellow TT fans I have to say that I agree with the comments in this thread that the American shows that BBC chooses to air in the UK are garbage, but what a shame the excellent documentaries and history-related productions are not offered in your part of the world. Born 1957. The fun gone out of Sunday teatime! Yes TR can be intensely irritating at times, but as the years have gone by I think his appreciation of the experts has increased and they have learned skills from him about presentation. BRING BACK TIME TEAM PLEASE!!!! Thanks for the many years of wonderful, intelligent, entertainment Time Team, we will really miss you. Lewis, who holds the. Us all. Interesting, in these days where we (oldies) are not responding to adverts as much as the supposed young and affluent to think of alternative crowd-sourcing models for financing programs that we like. The cast and crew were pretty obviously seriously digging their roles, (bad pun semi-intended sorry about that sort of). If Tim Taylor or anyone at Channel 4 ever got the itch in their pants to dig it all up again (pun intended) it would be so awesome. I have watched Time Team from day one, and now my 11 and 9 year old daughters love to watch it, in fact my youngest commented she would like to be an archaeologist when she grows up, and this is from watching Time Team, I cannot believe Time Team has been axed, its a national institution. Show creator Tim Taylor has since confirmed they will begin work on two new YouTube episodes, with two more in the pipeline, last month. For how many years were John Gater and Stuart Ainsworths technical expertise presented as a pat cliche when the work of either could have been expanded? What a bunch of idiots. The programs were never the same when Mick wasnt on. I could have watched it for another 20 years. A monumental row and walk out, one would guess. TV & life not the same as early 1990s but I think the format is still sound (just dont turn it into on old OU prog). I have always enjoyed TT but the latest series seems to have lost its spark! Maybe the resulting reruns and you tube videos will be a template for all group endeavors. In the immediate aftermath of a programmes cancellation it is traditional to attempt a post-mortem of what went wrong. Agree 100%, they should have left it well alone. Tapped into the national zeitgeist, its stars were household names and at its zenith Time Team was pulling in audiences of 3 3.5 million viewers. The writing was on the wall when it regularly began featuring cleavage shots of diggers and the dreaded re-enactments. Hi. Harding trained on various excavations with the Bristol University Extra Mural Department and other bodies from 1966; he has been a professional archaeologist since 1971. There was a youthful energy to them back them, which was part of the attraction. And lets be honest, it doesnt get any better than watching absolutely great British television presented by the all time best supporting TV character, Baldrick. Matt will be based at our new premises in Welshpool where he will take up the post of Business Manager, Wales. TT had a great following here in Canada. What screwed up Time Time was poor scheduling two years ago and an attempt to sex up the show and this failed miserably. Some of the regulars have retired, some have moved on to other things, a few have departed for Tr nan g or the Field of Reeds. Channel 4s loss their gain :) I have told so many people about Time Team & my grand daughter has been trying to decide should she be an archaeologist or a geologist because of it. The ground-breaking history series presented by Tony Robinson helped to popularise the field of archaeology and has since been watched in over 40 countries worldwide! Shows that actually ADD something GOOD to the mix. my point in this is, why try to fix it if it aint broke change is not always as good as a rest. Trained on excavations with the Bristol University Extra Mural Department and other bodies from 1966 he has been a professional archaeologist since 1971. . if you can i would a reply.also HELEN IS ALSO VERY GOOD. Later, in a blazing take down of the shows changes in the Western Daily Press, he wrote: There is a lot less archaeological content and a lot more pratting about. I have been binge watching on YouTube whilst laid up with a medical issue. I wonder how Tony felt with this introduction, as he had been doing the job for so long, and never once boring. Having said that, I hope this means Time Team DVDs will now be more available to those of us in the US who adore the show. Phew! GOOD LUCK TO THEM ALL. As it was said at the start, they had to change it and then when it all went wrong blame someone else. How right Mick Aston was. I wonder whether the viewing figures took in the worldwide audience I know lots of people watched and enjoyed it here in Australia. Their presentation skills are very good indeed and could develop even more if the programme continued (not with Channel 4 please); eg Tracey, Jimmy, Susannah, not to mention Raksha, Matt, Paul, Helen, John and Stuart, all of whom are young enough to take over from the elder statesmen who could still guest if they do choose to retire one day! In 2003, I joined the amateur Biggar Archaeology Group which, among other achievements, discovered the oldest known archaeological site in Scotland. Poor. The breathtaking 3D model it produced of the buried structures persuaded English Heritage to commission a complete survey on the spot. Maybe it will work with time team too. I regularly tape the programmes as it is shown on a variety of stations, history,yesterday, and channel 4 being some. Thanks Julia and Lizbeth. I have watched most episodes many times and it is a joy to come across one I have never seen before. Good job I have the internet to log onto. It was an intelligent, thought provoking, and entertaining program. Such mass-production was only possible with more rigorous processes guiding filming. On December 17, 2021, Williams was hired by the San Diego Padres to serve as the teams third base coach for the 2022 season. Very sad that all great things have to come to an end one day. Your contribution to TV and Archeology is now history itself! I am looking forward to the Village Dig series, when it eventually comes to the small screen. We live in USA. Phil Harding is a highly accomplished archaeologist, working in the field since 1971, and inspired a whole new generation of archaeologists and historians through his work on Time Team.
