Who made the decision to axe time team but it is a mistake they will regret. I am still quite happy to watch repeats on Sky. Keep the show going its fantastic Ive been watching it as long as I can remember too, although not often. We may not see its like again. Please bring it back with all the original cast the new ones where good but I preferred the old cast and format. ! My parents watch it. Its an opportunity to find new voices and should help launch a new generation of archaeologists, under the guidance and watchful eye of Mr Taylor! The more who sign it the better, I have and so have my family. Why cant these so-called clever people just leave things alone. Such a fantastic guide, love it. Quod erat demonstrandum. I have missed Time Team SO much.. Ive loved Time Team since day one, but recently Ive found it becoming a little too cozy. Thank you all at Time Team for a wonderful 20 years. There was a early chemistry here of personalities, as well as expertise. of Tonys and Phils hair. Sounds like a bargain to me, how much do the BBC spend on the series presented by David Attenborough? I was especially interested in the programme on Looe Island chapel as my grandparents once owned Looe Island and I had been there and walked over the chapel remains. I would echo it completely. Despite his sore loss, he did the right thing to walk out. Although I partly agree with Geoff Stelling regarding both the departure of Mick and sidelining Phil somewhat, I do think that the young archaeologists in this the last series show a great deal of promise (Jimmy, Tracey, Susannah, for example) and we are being unfair to their input to be so critical. but our family loves Phil. 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. INCREDIBLE ! It will be interesting to see how the new Village Dig series comes across on TV. Channel 4 is a crude simulacrum of its original self and I agree that BBC 4 would be TTs natural home.Id love to see the old Time Team reunited Ill live in hope! I have loved Time Team for years and wish that there were not so many bone heads in Channel 4. Six years after the last 'three days dig' was aired, the series is unstoppably popular on youtube. Inever felt patronised and loved the interation beteen Tony, Phil and Mick. Phil annoys me at times, by always stealing the limelight when lesser mortals had done the hard graft,but, the highlights were when lesser mortals (IE Raksha, Matt or Ian) had exciting finds and were allowed to show.Victors drawings were more lively and thought provoking than the boring computer graphics.I will start to miss the programme in two years time, when we finally complete seies 20. We always joke about that, but I think its indicative of how people understand archaeology is a process. I had to think about it before I realized what he meant. In this months Science Notes, we will explore the evidence for this hypothesis, and examine how violence-related injuries are distinguished in archaeological human remains. Miss Ochota, 30, holds a masters degree in archaeology and anthropology from Cambridge University. No, I didnt ever notice that, was I watching the right show? I have not been watching the show for very long because it was not aired in the US as far as I know. yes, I too have treasured every episode, and it has been the one programme of all channels that I never wanted to miss, even asking family to record it if I went on holiday, in the early years before I had a dvd m/c. Without Mick Aston it will not be the same, but as such it will be a fitting tribute to a great forward thinking man. Executive producer Philip Clarke said the current series had introduced Miss Ochota and archaeologist Alex Langlands. but they wont last forever and young blood is always needed. Following the successful launch of a fan-led Patreon campaign in December, Time Team has now confirmed what could be the first of many digs. (3 different history channels, Discovery channel, Travel channel, Military channel, National Geographic channel the list goes on and on. I first came across it a few years back while channel surfing Hey I know him thats Baldrick. Channel 4 manages to produce some really rubbish reality programmes to titivate the youthful masses it hopes to attract. The roman barge in Utrect was particularly interesting and my son in Holland wished to see it. I have always wondered what happens to all the dirt that the Time Team dig out of their sites after the 3 days of digging? But the professor, 65, said that changes to the programme which have led to the introduction of co-presenter Mary-Ann Ochota and the dropping of some archaeologists had left him really angry. The ABC in Australia invariably saw fit to show very, very few episodes of Time Team, although numerous repeats were televised, and like a good book, they were enjoyed by a public that is hungry for family value in TV productions. Telly Tubbies. does anybody really care what those idiots say surely it is what the public want that matters but no channel 4 has a foolllll running it.. heavan forbid we should have a great program T T ware we think and enjoy it plus it is great family veiwing and may i say also very interresting. Karenza Lewis archaeological sex on legs. Screening 13 episodes a year, as well as live digs and specials the programme was ubiquitous. There can be little doubt that part of the shows early success stems from the audience warming to the groups genuine passion for teasing out the past. i believe everything has a lifespan, and that must include television shows. The main loss will be the delight we have got shouting bullshit-ware at the screen as Paul Blinkhorn announces a small lump of stone is in reality early Anglo Saxon teaset. Its a wonder one isnt constantly tripping over roman floor tiles and Anglo-Saxon wine jugs every time one steps out of ones door. I am team Ainsworth, so he would have to be brought back. Geophysics gives you that instant picture you can then evaluate. Mick, Tony Phil, Carenza Lewis, etc bring it back as there are no current programs that come close. I agree entirely. Special thanks also to the fantastic people behind the research, graphics, computer animation that added so much to each episode. Working with the Fiennes family brought home the connection with Sutton Hoo and Ralph Fiennes character, Basil Brown in the recent Netflix film, The Dig. Not a surprise really when you consider the presence of the suits through all the times that Time Team and others have explored and documented. 2012 was a very low point and i half expected it to end right then. It is practically unheard of for a factual, specialist programme to spend two decades as the public face of its subject and become a national institution along the way. Sad Time Team series being finished. Always will be in my heart! BRING BACK TIME TEAM PLEASE!!!! And key graphic purporting to show the significant shift in building alignments between two phases did not actually do that but simply repeated the original layout! The meeting was followed by an email to archaeologists last year from Wildfire Television, which makes the programme. Miss TT so much. He should have stuck to presenting instead of trying to take command. I dont understand what purpose that serves, but there you have it. To an incredible all round team we thank you and to Phil damn we will miss you! The programme certainly triggered my interest and my wifes interest in Archaeology. Hello from the US. Jim summed up their approach as messing with something perfectly fine, and when it wasnt a success, blaming the people trying to make it work., Time Teams cost also made it vulnerable. I used to go into a hole with a size 9 shovel and spent nearly 33 years digging around obstacles like gas, electric, sewers, to name a few and I can assure you that I did not have the patience of some of this team. The pair bonded on the idyllic Greek island, where Micks aptitude for breathing life into the past convinced Tony that archaeology had untapped television potential. Mick Aston is a damn good archaeologist and his departure was a serious loss to the programme. Meet the Ancestors was also a good programme we need more Archaelogy programmes on TV. My own thoughts are this, why should we allow channel 4 to take this away from us, are the Team ready to call it a day or do they feel like me that there are another thousand potential sites out there to dig. youtu.be/rlKmrT. I saw the same program, Justin, and I agree entirely! But would be top stuff if BBC 4 could pick it up and get things back on track. I am an ex water board worker and I still don t know where they obtained the patience to go into a hole in the ground and dig with a trowel. My eldest son is now 19 and guess what he is studying at University (say no more) thank you Time Team. Were currently watching the series (2012?) They cant bring it back. The fun gone out of Sunday teatime! My wife Ida & I never missed a program for years. Also, the most recent posters may not have heard of Mick Astons premature death. On the other hand, all good things come to an end. 20+ years is a remarkable feat for a television program, and this isnt Dr. Who either. Congratulations to all concerned on a great program. x. Condolences to Micks family, his friends and his colleagues. By the way I am 52, so I guess I am too old for channel 4, but tell my kids that. With Phil Harding also on board, three members of the future Time Team core were in place. PLEASE bring it back. Have a look again at the programme where Phils DNA results come in and watch Tonys reaction. He has worked on a number of archaeological sites in Britain and abroad. Just been reading all the comments, and a lot of sensible thinhs have been said, and a few stupid ignorant ones as well. As it was said at the start, they had to change it and then when it all went wrong blame someone else. I have watched Time Team from the beginning and love the earlier episodes and although its sad that its going it has changed considerably.Not the same without Mick his enthusiasm makes for great watching. Stewart Ainsworth FSA (born 26 June 1951) is a British archaeological investigator who is regularly seen on Time Team the Channel 4 archaeological television series he joined in 1995. I have watched Time Team over the years. Season 1, aired in 1994, had four episodes, while season 2 followed with five, and season 3 boasted six. Stranger things have happened! Real shame its leaving our screens but it did give us so many hours of pleasure along with the odd glimpse of a young Alice Roberts and the occasional grumpiness of Mick. It is just so sad to read all of these comments, like a requiem for a friend. However, as a viewer I hugely enjoyed the opportunity to share in the Teams excitement. What screwed up Time Time was poor scheduling two years ago and an attempt to sex up the show and this failed miserably. Unfortunately my DVD recording did not work. The site is of national importance and we couldnt hope for a better team to help uncover its secrets., Time Teams return has had the backing of many celebrity fans, from Sir Michael Morpurgo and Bernard Cornwell to Philippa Gregory, Kate Mosse and Ken Follett. Reason: we hardly spoke to each other and what we were watching on tv was hardly worthwhile. Please BBC take this show under your wings ! Finding it was to completely end, not, as Id hoped, to revert to its more successful format I was quite heart broken. And they have taken it off and broken up a brilliant team. With a fantastic team backed by Keith Westcott and Martin Fiennes, local community support, the possibility of an ongoing legacy, and the guarantee of great archaeology, Broughton Castle ticks all the boxes!, Taylor continues: The Broughton villa promises to be one of the finest examples in Britain. YOU HAVE JUST NOT THOUGHT THIS THROUGH! I love time team because it is filled with such enthusiasm and love for its subject. Time Team repeats on You Tube are helping to keep me sane during the Covid19 lockdown. His Uncle, my brother, has to dig up a dig with him when he comes on holiday and he is in there like a professional. I have watched and enjoyed Time Team for many years I am one of the oldies watching but my children grandchildren and great grandchildren are all avid viewers I feel the makers of this program had no perception of its impact on different generations when they set out to close the program down. Fabulous, thank you. Her role, as a foil to Sir Tony, was complimentary, and never as an expert. Time Team was the best program I have ever seen or hope to see. I continue to be in awe of the fantastic skill and enthusiasm of the presenters.May TT be always available to us. All the repeats are still amazing, I also watch ime team every day without fail. Wouldnt it be lovely if all teams could be like the Time Team? Jim describes this miscalculation as a death blow, which cost the show almost all of its behind the scenes staff. there was total outrage and ABC picked it up with the two oldies . The marvelous experts have described items, historical facts and what could have been, may have been and what was likely to have been and possibly how the ancestors [residents and visitors alike] changed the landscape. The Mick Aston informative, involving wide range of age and expertise-or students out in the field working version, not the americanised teenybopper version as touted by c4 accountants. This photograph was taken at a recent catch-up with some of the Team: John Gater, Helen Geake, Carenza Lewis, Tim Taylor, Dani Wootton, Jim Mower, and Stewart Ainsworth, all of whom are . . Its disadvantage was that it had no scope to include z-list celebrities to manufacture controversy around, and so it was killed. I know we have no Roman history, but there are thousands of of places that date back thousands of years. Were back thanks to the overwhelming support of our fans!. As for the rest of the Team, hats off to you for the great fun and excellent archaeology looking forward to a few TT specials. I am sooooo sorry the series is over. With only some strange earthworks exciting the curiosity of local amateur archaeologists to go on, the programme was flexible enough to be able to take a gamble. The cast will be sorely missed. What a great detective. I will have to content myself with watching the 4OD repeats for ever now. It was responsible for me going on a dig and having a great time. Its the best show! Their ethos has been propagated through the educational system and I feel that its still there (though fading) Hopefully it will be picked up by another channel. It remains my all time favourite reality TV show and I really miss it. Lee, viewer outrage worked in Australia with The Movie Show. We NEED Time Team. There are DVDs, some available on Amazon uk. [] One of best, very passionate three part on geology of Great Britain was filmed with Mr Tony Robinson who is/was excellent presenter. I think Tony is a good fit for this program. Pity arise Sir Phil???? But, as always with Time Team, the adventure is in the discovery of the secrets of the past, whatever they are!, Landowner Martin Fiennes a cousin of actors Ralph and Joseph Fiennes, and explorer Sir Ranulph says: Were delighted to welcome Time Team to Broughton.

That they were able to achieve what very few others were able to achieve and give a thirst to the man-in-the-street in what could be classed as a dry subject only adds weight to what they were able to achieve in such a fantastic way. Phil is fantastic as he has always been. if only someone could afford too get all thecast back and go on channel 2 or 5 any ware but not on 4 .. who ever made up there minds to get rid off TT I HOPE there bosses can see the error they are makeing.very sad to see it go.

(now part of English Heritage) in 1985, and is now head of its Landscape Investigation Team based in York, England. we dont want more programmes that is rubbish there is more than i could even say.

After university, he worked as Somerset's first County Archaeologist before returning to university as a lecturer. It may be in fifteen or so years a new Time Team will go digging in the archives of the defunct Channel 4 to explain how with the audience Channel 4 had for an entertaining and informative programme Which bright go ahead executive (IDIOT) came up with the Idea, if its not broken we must fix it. How about a petition to Channel 4 demanding its continuation? Such a shame a beautiful show as this is axed and they show such dribble as reality tv shows blah yuk. Was it one persons requirements that brought extras into the show, persons not wanted nor needed, also not as talented as a walnut. So thank you TT, you helped rekindle my interest in history and if Id been 40 years younger you would probably have been instrumental in a career change! The foregoing is an exhausting but entertaining read. This was highlighted by having a member of the public read out a letter of invitation at the beginning, posing the question they wanted answered.

Lois & Tara, Australia Raksha Dave from Time Team is part of it. Archaeology enthusiast from Europe and the United States have long discovered the series. there must be a law t What do other TT viewers think? I read a number of the same comments over and over here, and some are quite valid. There was a youthful energy to them back them, which was part of the attraction. I was thinking, isnt it about time Time Team was on? Team Team gang were so funny with their understanding of each other and professional approach to their subject, their knowledge of it all and portrayal to the audience was so entertaining, and Tony added an open view to a usually flat subject, with his level headed approach to academics and gave it life. I wonder if channel 4 realise how far T.Ts popularity stretches and how informative it is for all ages. Time Team brought so much into my life, being bed ridden, television being a large part of my life now. I learned so much, as many others have, and admired the way it brought archaeology to everyone. The thing that should be axed is the TV exec that made that decision. 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. Your sorrow will be eased by the sight of a few old, friendly faces. I have watched the episode from Barra several times. Hopefully some other channel will take up the format eventually.

CHANNEL 4 you just do not know what you have done ! A known anthropologist and archeologist ( Emmanuel College, Cambridge ), to describe and dismiss her as a former model is a bit unfair.

Its always sad when a long running and reputable series ends. time team has over the years discovered great things. The dig is important because the whole are is soon to be developed as a tourist complex with golf course. In my mind, one of the contributing factors to the programmes demise, were the increasing number of digs being done on behalf of professional bodies such as English Heritage, and local authorities. I am an American who did real dirt archeology thirty years ago.I dug at at three historic sites and one protohistoric site in East Central Illinois. . Now everyone knows the word geophys.
