I have watched this program over the life of its showing and as a saturday morning archaeologist I was challenged to dig deeper (pun intended) by reading more into the theory and practice of archaeology. I love Time Team and regularly binge watch have seen many episodes several times. BRING BACK TIME TEAM PLEASE!!!! Who is Matt Williams married to?Erika Monroe Williamsm. Image: Wessex Archaeology. Like Concorde, should be rescued by someone BBC and revamped ASAP. Time Team is a British television programme that originally aired on Channel 4 from 16 January 1994 to 7 September 2014. And this program had run its course several years ago. It excited the viewers, gave a good history of The United Kingdom, and made one waiting for the next episode, all due to the enthusiasm and clever programming of the show. why change what works well and T T did work well . Phil's appointment follows an extensive search and interviews with a very strong field of candidates. Time Team return, Time Team is coming back, 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. Your email address will not be published. I loved watching Time Team in Australia, way better than the American version. I would just like to thank Tony Robinson, Mick Aston, Phil Harding and all of the crew at Time Team for many years of fascinating TV. The Team had a comradery like that of an elite military unit. 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. Ive learned that anything classed as experimental Is just filler as theyve found nothing. Perhaps the question should be not what went wrong with Time Team, but what went wrong with Channel 4. if you can i would a reply.also HELEN IS ALSO VERY GOOD. Maybe the TT should be recalled for a one off programme and instead of digging things up they could bury the CH 4 production managers and all forthcoming rubbish they plan to screen, My wife is very upset about the end of Time Team she adds its like losing and old friend Please Please channel 4 its not to late to change your mind. Best of all, the cameras were rolling to capture the archaeologists euphoria as the geophysical plot emerged from a bulky printer in the back of the survey vehicle. What is wrong with older viewers? Not any more. He has become a familiar face on the Channel 4 television series Time Team. http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/time-team-should-continue-on-tv.html I THINK THIS IS A SHOCKING DECISION AND CAN ONLY HOPE THAT IT IS REVERSED!!! Without Mick Aston it will not be the same, but as such it will be a fitting tribute to a great forward thinking man. There were live episodes and an American spin-off for PBS. Fond regards to everyone from the past on TT. Please, please would someone bring the show back, This is just another example of Managements old adage: Its perfect; lets New and Improve it There is definitly an opportunity for BBC2 together with The Open University to take over when Time Team ceases. I have always enjoyed TT but the latest series seems to have lost its spark! thank god for the repeats. I will miss Mick and Phil and Tony. Slower paced, Timesigns has Mick talking directly to the camera in a style more akin to a history documentary or Open University broadcast. Is this why some of the Adverts are much better than most of the currant programmes. irritating but he was a part of a recipe that worked for a long time. Were not archaeologists but were not stupid either it really did feel like they had decided the audience was unintelligent. You can never run out of history in Britain. I live in Minnesota and am anxious to explore sites of the indigenous people who lived and continue to live here.

What lies under the ground of the countrys past. Thank you to all of Time Team for 20 wonderful years. Time Team brought archaeology to the publics attention (including mine) and will be sorely missed. Just did the same as Leigh trying to find out when the next series is due to start. I have enjoyed Time Team from day one. Yes, really hope so! So sad. very sad day that channel 4 are taking time team off the air.when time team started my husband and watch the show and we were hooked from then on. I was digging my veg patch yesterday and I found a napped piece of flint. I will be saddened to see Time Team go, but I agree that the production costs could realistically be reduced. All I can say is thank you to all at Time Team. It would be remiss of me not to mention that I was so sorry to read of the passing of Mick Aston. I wonder how Tony felt with this introduction, as he had been doing the job for so long, and never once boring. It needed to get back to its roots look at the early episodes to see why it was successful. Big Bang (repeat), Simpsons (repeat), Simpsons (another repeat), Maid in Manhattan (good grief!). In addition, people are re-discovering the magic and history of their local areas and the wellbeing that can be derived from activities like archaeology. TT changed how history programmes are made for UK TV for ever. The Isle of Mull episode in season 17 is a great example of what could be discovered. Promotion of family values good natured banter and above all a love of the past which TT has shared with us over the years is disposed of Shame, Shame, Shame. Re-assemble the team ! It was season 19 that changed everything. I learn so much. I feel really, really angry about it, he told British Archeology magazine. I have loved it from the first episode and who cares if Tony is a little OTT sometimes, he keeps it entertaining and all together. This is a disaster in t.v programming where currently all you get is the banal reality of the likes of Toddlers in Tiaras .The Time Team over the years became like welcome friends into your home and you wished you could join them in the pub at the end for a beer. Placing viewers at the heart of the action would become a Time Team hallmark. I assume it will be more imported American rubbish or so called comedy. 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! Now, instead of honest archeology, we are going to be swamped with American hystorical programming, in which they assume we all have a 1 second attention span, need constant recaps (at least 4 per 10 minute part) and need it all (badly) acted out by ridiculous, cheap, and hugely inaccurate costumes, backgrounds and language. And, unlike Phil and Mick, one didnt long to give her a haircut!! I have just realised that time team is to be axed by c4. You know they say the difference between Americans and the British is that the British think 250 miles is a long distance and Americans believe 250 years is a lot of history. Not all of us want mindless reality TV that costs a few bob to present. We may not see its like again. I am thrilled that TT is returning in 2022, but saddened that Phil, Raksha and Tony will not be participating. Perhaps in gthe future we may have a project for a future Time Team, Channel 4 where did it all go wrong? The new series is getting nearer to the original format, I think, except for the one featuring the soldiers, which, dare I say it and risk castigation (?) Which terminal does Virgin Atlantic fly from at Heathrow? How amazing to see the history of England being unearthed. Philip 'Phil' Harding DL FSA (born 25 January 1950) is a British field archaeologist. It must have been amazingly hard to pull together the locations, permits, and logistics, add the art, historical research, music and local involvement, let alone process the dig sites. [emailprotected]. It enabled a local group to secure Historic Lottery Fund money to dig the site. Sadly, this was not the case. It has made the subject of archaeology interesting and accessible for everyone and if they were still activetheres an interesting mound that desperately needs investigating at the end of our road. Thank you time team, one and all, I constantly watch the reruns on the history channel here is oz. Tony was constantly disagreeing with the archaeologists, and for some unexplained reason there was loud ballet music all but obliterating the commentary. Time Team you have inspired so many people .THANK YOU. In 1966, while still at school, he attended a training excavation by Bristol University Extra Mural Department in Fyfield and West Overton. As others have said, lets hope that the B.B.C. Ive got to say I think he handled the shows well. or anyone with an IQ of 50 and below, or the attention span a bit longer than a small herring. You were apparently watching a different show than we were. Filmed at Athelney, site of Alfred the Greats apocraphal burnt cakes, the site was scheduled, precluding excavation. VALE Time Team, a wonderful Viking/ Roman pyre is burning and we are drinking ourselves to oblivion. Perhaps one of the other channels will see the folly of C4s ways and pick up the program before its too late? will take time, i was successfull on a Campaign on another show before so i know what i have to do, The Campaign is to have a new lease of life on another tv channel. One of our students is well into his 70s, hes been in the field with us both on our formal field school and in a volunteering capacity. Thank you channel 4 Thank you very very much . It was responsible for me going on a dig and having a great time. We didnt do much history at school and we have all learned so much from TT. 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. Our investigation of the villa and the landscape it occupies will aim to preserve and enrich our understanding of the past and the people who inhabited it. UK engineer, producer, songwriter, musician and author. I found TR irritating at times but accepted him as part of the show. The roman barge in Utrect was particularly interesting and my son in Holland wished to see it. But Channel 4 has dumb it down, the last episode i watched was at Henham Park down the road from me, They found out nothing that wasnt local knowledge already. People came and went, such as my favourite Robin Bush, but those two remained, as did their stamina and zeal for the show. I would be very happy, if it was revived. It brought the money and expertise to investigate sites that would otherwise never have been touched. Time Team did a superb job and has an excellent track record of quality archaeology, bringing the subject to millions via TV and publishing the results! Lytham St Annes. 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! Bringing in that awful woman for the last series was the straw that broke the camels back. now I rely on repeats. Good job I have the internet to log onto. The writing was on the wall though poor scheduling . Who made the decision to axe time team but it is a mistake they will regret. An audience study in 2006 indicated that 20 million people watched at least one show that year. Please bring Time Team back. archaeology..is what my 11 year old gran daughter is looking into training for..shows like these are needed more. I do not think that the British tourism board and channel 4 realize how much interest world wide their is in British history. Great memories sadly missed. if thereis any justice in the world they shoud change there minds.TONY MICK PHIL STEWART JOHN MAT RAKSHA BRIGID CARENZA TO MENTION a few. Also it being on an increasingly miserable Channel (4) did it no favours whatsoever. and use my iPad to follow through my own enquirers. document.getElementById("comment").setAttribute( "id", "aef75bd6fa7bfa0cebb4e51d4d2b7451" );document.getElementById("ac59ec51d8").setAttribute( "id", "comment" ); Latest news from our sister site, the-past.com. Wasnt TT the only reason to watch Channel 4 ? Since 2015, Harding has been an archaeological supervisor for the veteran support charity Waterloo Uncovered, which conducts archaeology on the battlefield of Waterloo alongside veterans and serving personnel. There was a youthful energy to them back them, which was part of the attraction. Hope it returns anne from Ontario Canada. Time Teams legacy leaves much to celebrate. Requested by a commissioning editor to wear more colourful clothing Mick turned up in the most garish garment he could find as a joke, only to be told it was perfect. I agree with the above sentiments, get the brilliant crew back. On December 17, 2021, Williams was hired by the San Diego Padres to serve as the teams third base coach for the 2022 season. Channel 4 manages to produce some really rubbish reality programmes to titivate the youthful masses it hopes to attract. It makes me want to poke nyy head in and see the Geophys, operate the diggers to open a trench and pick up a trowel and start digging! Surely this cant really be the end?? I was surfing the internet to obtain correct titles for some episodes that I recorded earlier. Channel 4s loss their gain :) I will miss it desperately and want to say thank you to them all.. What a fantastic 20 years Bye bye Tme TeamI will care for Phils hat .. Mon 24 Jun 2013 19.12 EDT Archaeologist and broadcaster Mick Aston, who found fame with TV programme Time Team, has died aged 66. Perhaps if TT had included a Big Brother style segment of drunken, debauched university students or only dug up the gardens of minor celebrity reality tv show contestants theyd still be on the air. For those too grief stricken to cope right now, subscribe to the youtube video blog of Dig Village. As well as an arresting demonstration of the power of teamwork, Athelney showed how geophysics could be the heart of the programme. 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. In addition, he has appeared in episodes of Meet the Ancestors (2003) and Chris Moyles' Quiz Night (2009).[9]. I could have watched it for another 20 years. Click and Collect from your local Waterstones or get FREE UK delivery on orders over 25. We totally agree with Nick Robinson, we too will be enjoying repeats and cursing Channel 4!. Raphael, you cant have the old cast back. Its the best show! My own favourite was Stuart, to see him on his bike or wandering around looking at the landscape with his ability to fit any site into its landscape. 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 didnt always like the reenactments but it was interesting when they dealt with diet and medical issues. Who Can Benefit From Diaphragmatic Breathing? Such speed was certainly not ideally suited to showcase all of the techniques available to modern archaeologists. What happened to the Time Team crew? The late Robin Bush brought a degree of historical expertise that would be missed almost as much as the man himself following his departure in 2003. And thank you Mick, R.I.P. Take up the mantel!! Why is it that when you get a winning format, which TT clearly is, you get the morons in suits, who obviously havent a clue what the audience want, having to justify their existence by changing things. This little part of the world (so far from Australia) was the birthplace of my father in law. We are a large audience. He should have stuck to presenting instead of trying to take command. Condolences on your chronic issue with clever people. This once innovative and ground breaking channel has started to descent to almost ITV 1 depths of dumbing down in recent years, it certainly isnt the channel that Jeremy Isaccs created anymore. I have been fascinated by archaeology since reading Golden Books Lost Cities and Vanished Civilizations, at the age of nine, but only recently stumbled across TIME TEAM quite by accident one night. His sharp, charming wit and fresh-faced boyish looks made him the prime target for the historical re-enactment spots on the show. An absolute feast of mind, interest and the ever curiosity of young and old alike about What lie underneath that humble plot of soil?.TIme Team approached that humble plot we would all like to delve into.they bring that knowledge of how with them and together unveal little glimspes of anothers past which we back bring here, to today.as a reflection and connection.like a mirror between centuries and timesand sunrises and pleasant breezes of a long ago Sunday afternoon, I thought it was the Bi..o presenter the doomed it for sure, brought in because we are all suddenly dumb. I thought the 2013 series was an improvement on the 2012 series, but tonights episode was disappointing. Apparently, there was plenty of dirt being dug off camera, thanks largely to the people up top. Placing viewers at the heart of the action would become a Time Team hallmark. Ive binge watched Time Team on YouTube and up to S17. I suppose theres nothing wrong with her per se, but her presence is utterly unnecessary. The time team has brought history, archaeology, geophys and a devoted team of professionals into my life. I am still watching episodes on Yesterday that Id somehow missed. This was the best educational programme that I looked forward to every week and also all the repeats that were broadcast on more 4. We will miss Tony, Mick and Phil and the team. I was the archaeological consultant but they decided to get rid of half the archaeological team, without consulting me.. Its prototype was Timesigns, a four-part series that aired in 1991. TT would be ideal on BBC4, which is a very good channel, and it would be great to see a full hour. Channel 4 can go to where it rightly belongs confined to History. Very sad that all great things have to come to an end one day. Watched it since the beginning, some great episodes and fantastic digs. A terrible loss to the worlds of broadcasting and archaeology alike, with luck a pheonix will rise from the ashes. Crazy. Channel 4 has just axed the best show on tv wont be watching channel 4 again, There will always be someone who knows what we like we to watch. Many bad decisions for all the wrong reasons. I bought a couple of the DVD sets and have just ordered a Phil Harding coffee mug from Wessex Archaeology to keep the memories alive. I hope its not the end of Time Team. Rip, time team. Yes, the original core team with Carenza, and then Helen Geake, were great. A long-time member of Channel 4s Time Team, Raksha Dave is one of the countrys best loved archaeologists. A) Time Team's still going; B) Tony Robinson left; C) Tony Robinson's returning. I am! I am 81 & have watched & enjoyed TT for many years. Enjoyed Tony and the whole crew, felt like u were part of the dig and part of the crew, they were all like family. What proved to be the fateful conversation took place in a Little Chef on the Okehampton bypass. I want to salute everyone involved in this show! While the TV producers have obviously ruined a formula that entertained and educated millions of people worldwide for a couple of decades, I assume it is now beyond recall. It encouraged me to study the Neolithic, Bronze and Iron Ages. Not that I want to live there though am quite happy to be an Australian. I saw the same program, Justin, and I agree entirely! Now I have no reason what ever to watch ch 4 now or in the future . Ive loved Time Team since day one, but recently Ive found it becoming a little too cozy. Many of my friends would love to travel to the UK because of shows like Time Team and Escape to the country. I love time team because it is filled with such enthusiasm and love for its subject. Such a great programme. Rather than targeting the palaces and castles of the rich and famous, individual episodes modestly sought to solve simple, local questions. Hi Serena, you can find a complete episode and series guide of all 230 programmes plus the specials on this website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Time_Team_episodes Plenty more to come for you yet, if only More 4 would stop repeating the same episodes over and over again and show some of the others they could keep you (and the rest of us) happy for years to come. We wish Phil, Mick, Helen, Sir Tony and the team well for the future and thank them for the pleasure they have brought us. I remember John Gater and his long beard. Perhaps if Chanel 4 had stuck to the old adage of if it aint broke, dont fix it we would still have had this gem of a program to look forward to enjoying for many years to come.. with shows like Strictly Come Dancing, X Factor, Dancing on Ice, Big Brother etc etc etc all being aired every week, Time Team was an oasis of entertainment and education in a vast desert of mundane TV programming. With Channel 4 keen to attract more supposedly affluent viewers in their 20s and 30s, season 19 also tinkered with the format. Just watched the first instalment of Time Team America (H2,Thursdays,9pm). I too have enjoyed Time Team and am amazed that it has been scrapped. CHANNEL 4 you just do not know what you have done ! Stranger things have happened! The utterly ridiculous Dig by Wire (S19E01) would have put me off permanently had it been the first episode I had seen (What, helicopters dont work on Gateholm?). The dig has only found old bits of pipe and 1950s china, but it really does not matter, what matters is the program has inspired my children. We, Yahoo, are part of the Yahoo family of brands. certainly helped to fill a lot of university places, even if many of those gaining degrees have gone on to other careers. We have watched it form the start and enjoyed it on various level hugely. ABC altered the format marginally and called it At the Movies. 20+ years is a remarkable feat for a television program, and this isnt Dr. Who either. The message was simple: this is local archaeology, it is your archaeology. His technique fostered a sense of immediacy for viewers, placing them on the trench edge when discoveries happened and making them privy to key discussions. I often wish you could all come to my back yard 1 acre) and help me find the many many pairs of secateurs buried therein. Think what we learned. The implementation of Planning Policy Guidance 16 in 1990 enshrined archaeology within the development process and paved the way for todays professional units. Unfortunately my DVD recording did not work. Only problem is the core members are getting on a bit, so no chance of it going another 20 years. Disgusted, Mick walked out, explaining later For some reason they didnt think oh, wed better run that past Mick. Hes the archaeological consultant, he might have an opinion about that (see CA 271). Regards, Paul Tressel [emailprotected], Time Team was a massive part of my life, Im still watching it even now on more 4 :O. TV is going downhill faster & faster. I love the show, and I have also fallen in love wit Faye Simpson. It remains my all time favourite reality TV show and I really miss 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! 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. My son in his early 20s always likes to watch it. Created by television producer Tim Taylor and presented by actor Tony Robinson, each episode featured a team of specialists carrying out an archaeological dig over a period of three days, with Robinson . They have been saying for some years that the viewing figures have been going down and thats partly why they engineered this. Created by television producer Tim Taylor and presented by actor Tony Robinson, each episode featured a team of specialists carrying out an archaeological dig over a period of three days, with Robinson explaining the process in lay terms. May be he could be a Lord? I used to tape the shows & send the tapes to my sister in Winnipeg who enjoyed them as much as as we did Phil & Tony were our Favourites . Indeed, Stuart Ainsworth and Helen Geake had become increasingly sidelined, as was illustrator Ambrus, in favour of spiffy computer graphics. Too bad for the changes they made, these new guys tried hard, but you cant replace what the old team had, the magic, the small things, Still, Im grateful for what they achieved and for what it has meant to me and still does. It may also be heresy to say so, but I think many people who were interested more in the archaeology than the banter, found the relationship between Phil and Tony, to be past its sell by date. devon east waraq, nasuwt cancel membership, Likes to watch it be great to see it end one day a terrible loss the.
