I loved watching time team I want it to come back on the tv I miss watching it on Sunday afternoon. To me that is a programme which went from being a programme presented by farmers and people who knew about the countryside to one in which there is only one farmer and is full of clich-ridden pap. There are only about a thousand signatures so far.Personally, although I have signed, I dont think it will do much good. It is always the same, if it works change it, No offense Lizbeth, I really like Tony, but I still think my observation is accurate. Its a wonder one isnt constantly tripping over roman floor tiles and Anglo-Saxon wine jugs every time one steps out of ones door. Who is Mary Ann & what does she bring to the table? Time Team was the product (exclusively) of Channel 4 a commercial TV-only company that was created in the early 80s. I really loved the show and learned so much. No, sadly when it comes to TV, viewers dont get what they want, they get what they are given Trouble is, the people who make these decisions can be misguided, and very stupid.

Matt has dressed up and lived the life of a Roman soldier, Medieval lay-brother and even home-guard infantry, to name a few. His zodiac sign is Aquarius. I enjoyed all the archaeologists and presenter Tony Robinson. The focus groups of today, the council chambers of yesteryear; all determined to make their mark, put their talent on show. 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. Im an Englishman, came to Australia as a 12yo in 1970. I am very sorry to see it go. He also keeps it especially sharp in order to better pierce into hard soil. 1999Tracie Duncanm. Its amazing. What a lot we learned. A number of archaeological old hands were sacrificed in favour of more youthful presenters. Also, the most recent posters may not have heard of Mick Astons premature death. They seem to have replaced alot of the original cast for more easy on the eye team members, the new historian was a prime example. And I really enjoy watching Toni Victoria australia. They almost succeeded in ruining it until this present series.Channel 4 have betrayed the cast, crew and viewers. I loved Time Team in its early format but over the years got fed up listening to the boffins suddenly announcing a high status (Favourite phrase of TT) building eg temple or palace had been found after unearthing a piece of stonework that would get lost in my rockery. In fact, since Tony had no input at all into what digs were scheduled, I dont see how that could even begin to be true. Look at Lee Bradys comment 23rd Jan. Theres a link for a petition hes got started. I will miss TT more than any other show I have ever watched and Im extremely disappointed that C4 have decided to axe a show that brought History into the hearts of so many people. I cannot think why! 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). Cancellation. Such mass-production was only possible with more rigorous processes guiding filming. Without any doubt whatsoever Time Team was the best show on TV and a giant amongst the crappy stuff we have to put up with these days such as reality TV shows. ** HELP US BRING TIME TEAM BACK!Support Time Team by becoming a patron and get access to exclusive behind-the-scenes content here: https://www.patreon.com/TimeTeamOfficialTeatime Session 16 - We revisit more classic footage of Phil Harding reviewing pubs during the filming of Time Team in 2011. Phil is fantastic as he has always been. Our family love TT and watch it together. Youve said it all, I totally agree! Am now in the process of buying the DVDs. Thanks Guys! I hope that someone has the sense to resorect TT even if it is repeated from the beginning. Thanks for the many years of wonderful, intelligent, entertainment Time Team, we will really miss you. 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. I have loved Time Team for years and wish that there were not so many bone heads in Channel 4. Harding was a regular on Time Team from the first series in 1994 until its cancellation in 2013. 20 years is a long time in television.

Last month retired doctor Philip Harding and retired matron Margie Mickan tied the knot after a whirlwind romance. You have left us wanting more which of course is the best way to end a show. With its awkwardly embarassing reality programming and multitude of dream come true talent shows American television is NOTHING to emulate. 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! Shattered. An episode where a workplace expert was on stand by for structural shoring when common sense would have not wasted this kind of expense. What can replace the jovial banter of all the dedicated team that gave us an insight to what was going on thousands of years ago. If Channel Four thinks TT too expensive there is mileage in the Return To format for some digs showing some of the original programmes and then updating on subsequent research. Thank you all for giving us years of delight and thank God for DVDs. In 2003, I joined the amateur Biggar Archaeology Group which, among other achievements, discovered the oldest known archaeological site in Scotland. It was a perfunctory end for a television institution that, over two decades, made British archaeology more accessible and popular than ever. We didnt do much history at school and we have all learned so much from TT. I never saw any of these shows until a week ago when I stumbled over them on youtube. The changes proved too much, too fast, and viewing figures crashed to 700,000. 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. 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. Biggest mistake ever! Also it being on an increasingly miserable Channel (4) did it no favours whatsoever. That has gone now, so im going to just have to watch all the reruns on Discovery history ( and there are quite a few of them) and be happy. And anyone who does not like Tony Robinson probably doesnt like Rowan Atkinson either, probably has not a read book over 30 pages in decades, and probably believes the Big Bang was what happened in their bedroom last night.. It is that dull and droll science of Archeology, which when one attends a lecture on the subject, or a program on television normally results in boredom, numbness, squirming, or easy sleep. Shots of him in woodland seeking out raw materials for a reconstructed axe allowed the audience to witness the hands-on practical process. A thoroughly good bunch of people with a true PASSION for their subject ! C4, please bring back the previous and successful formatting of Time Team. My parents watch it. I watch time team on more 4 If there had been a mission statement for the show during those early days, it would have been the democratisation of archaeology. I found it much preferable to the Planet Earth shows of David Attenbrough. Born 1957. i never knew this show was available as the colonies never mentioned it. It was so pathetic, TT definitely doesnt need to have its memory sullied by association with the puerile crassness of the modern C4. TT is very fun to watch after nearly 30 years from the first episodes; watching the GeoPhysics change from season to season (week to week for me as I binge) is great for this engineer. I had no idea it was finishing until yesterday and I missed the last viewing as I have flu and have been sleeping a lot.. OH DEAR ! I have enjoyed Time Team from day one. 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. Changing all the staff behind Time Team was a big mistake, but ending it is even bigger. Surely, the way forward would have been to dig deeper into the technical aspects of the archaeology and to speak to the intelligent audience that made the program in the first place whether the sites themselves or the techniques being employed. Yeah. Episode # Series # Episode Title Location Historical Period Coordinates Original airdate 93: 1 "Garden Secrets" Raunds, Northamptonshire: Anglo-Saxon, Bronze Age: 5 January 2003 (): Time Team investigates a back garden in Raunds, where a skeleton - aptly named "Henry" by his discoverer - has been found along with his Anglo-Saxon grave goods.The burial probably fits in with a number of . 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.

If you had to justify the value of television as a medium that can inform as well as entertain, Time Team would be the perfect example. I am incredibly disappointed at CH4 for axing a fine British programme. In a nutshell, that is the most relevant comment I have read on here. I met Phil Harding a few years ago at old sarum castle, Salisbury, we had a lovely chat, hes a fab bloke. One only has to consider the creative arc of Channel Four itself, to have noticed that its a shadow of what it set out to be and frankly, those who run it now should be ashamed of themselves, relieved from duty, and prevented from working in TV ever again. axed is their a petition running ????? Whilst not filming Phil still works as a field archaeologist with Wessex Archaeology, and has been involved in a project listing all known Palaeolithic sites in Britain. VALE Time Team, a wonderful Viking/ Roman pyre is burning and we are drinking ourselves to oblivion. This comment by Peter Thomas is an excellent precis of all that has been said. He appeared in an episode of BBC's Digging for Britain in December 2016. Mick Aston is a damn good archaeologist and his departure was a serious loss to the programme. TT had a great following here in Canada. Yes, Phil can still shift the muck but check out his work on lithics studies and you might change your opinion. Tony used the rest of the Teams expertise to bring to life what was often regarded as a crusty subject before Time Teams arrival. Rather than targeting the palaces and castles of the rich and famous, individual episodes modestly sought to solve simple, local questions. 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. Your contribution to TV and Archeology is now history itself! How will I live? Closed minds achieve nothing in life. Sadly,she passed away 2 years ago but before she went, she told me not to forget to watch TT. Therefore, Phil Harding's lucky days are Sundays and Saturdays and lucky numbers are: 4, 8, 13, 17, 22 and 26 . The huge plus for archaeology in general has been the raising of the profile of a branch of science that prior to this program was the province of a fairly small group of people. 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. What am I going to do now knowing there isnt an unending stream of new TTs to feed my addiction? I recommend Current Archaeology to young and old as a way of covering all eras and defining ones particular interests in the subject. How many people can look back on a twenty years span of such a masterful contribution to human culture? Its our favoite show. An audience study in 2006 indicated that 20 million people watched at least one show that year. The team also included the likes of surveyors Stewart Ainsworth and Henry Chapman, illustrator Victor Ambrus, and fellow archaeologists Helen Geake and Phil Harding, and gradually the show began to grow its following, introducing a whole new audience to archaeology. Archeology isnt aloof anymoreTT built a bridge between laymen and pros! The comment by Peter Thomas is excellent and is a very eloquent summation. Loved Time Team and will miss it [endless repeats are not the same but I still find myself watching them anyway]. I was surfing the internet to obtain correct titles for some episodes that I recorded earlier. I think Phil is a genius at being able to read the ground he is digging up. This series is in my opinion (and hubbys) a satisfying end. I love time team. Well it seems the bean counters got their way. I hope more episodes are made available on video!

I wonder how much is wasted on their wages. age is no barrier in archaeology and many of us dont start until our 40s and 50s. Enjoyed Tony and the whole crew, felt like u were part of the dig and part of the crew, they were all like family. I have just realised that time team is to be axed by c4. I was thinking, isnt it about time Time Team was on? Many of my friends would love to travel to the UK because of shows like Time Team and Escape to the country. i have seen every episode of time team and ive never seen him mention anything like that other than one time, so you are a complete moron and need to look up what the word patronize means since i am now patronizing you. 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! It makes me chief superfan and supporter all armoury in our shared desire to inspire and stimulate interest in archaeology at all levels., Its great to be back! says Taylor. Nothing lasts forever, including Time Team. All I can say is thank you to all at Time Team. 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.

Started watching British TV while on exchange with the RAF. The UK is lucky that it has such a long history. Crazy. How outrageous to think that the 45s are not a worthy audience.

It was not the first time that a chance conversation with Mick had got someone thinking about television archaeology. To all the people who wrote nasty comments on this forum about it, I leave you with this question why are you on this site at all if you didnt love it like the rest of us? I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the digs and finds discovered by the crew. I have offten mention to my husband, I wonder what the site look like after the the TT have left. Time Team turned this particular builder into a complete archaeological anorak and made one increasingly curmudgeonly old fart in a sweat stain hat the one person in the world Id most love to meet, hang out on a dig with and sink real ales with thereafter! I thought Channel Four was supposed to be a cultural channel appealing to grown ups, yet the dire Big Brother has been inflicted on us for over ten years along with other ephemeral rubbish. Tony was constantly disagreeing with the archaeologists, and for some unexplained reason there was loud ballet music all but obliterating the commentary. I have loved Time Team since episode 1, and have never, not once, missed an episode. 2003Michelle Johnsonm. If an episode costs 200,000 and average 1.5 million viewers, would 1 million be willing to pay 20p via mobile phone or subscription towards making it, or 400,000 willing to pay 50p per episode?

The team also included the likes of surveyors Stewart Ainsworth and Henry Chapman, illustrator Victor Ambrus, and fellow archaeologists Helen Geake and Phil Harding, and gradually the show.

The 2006 audience survey also identified that Time Teams core audience consisted of families and people aged over 45 / 50. We do have money too you know. They tried to make it edgy and the thing I loved about time team was its lack of edginess? Perhaps the BBC could take over where Channel 4 has failed and get back to grass roots like in series 4-6. Thank goodness for DVDs of past episodes. And the journey is not quite over yet. What lies under the ground of the countrys past. I have no idea which series I am watching, I think it must be a mixture as Tonys beer belly ebbs and falls and Phils hair waxes and wains, though Mick never seems to have changed.
