Seeing Stewart and John walking a field and figuring out its story touches my heart. Legends, both of them. So gratified to see the team working together again on something so important. Pretty sure Dr. Mick, Robin, Victoria and the rest are out there with them making sure they go right.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. John was in the first episode already and Steward showed up in... the third, I think. It is just a shame Phil is busy in Avesbury, him and John's arguments was always a high-point too. I did like to see the team doing a more traditional dig since most archaeologists don't work in 3 days (yeah, they did 4 days in the Byzantine bucket episode and 6 days in Nevis and I might be missing something but 4 weeks is unheard of). Let's hope they get back next year and try to find John's ship and possible grave.
Helen Geake is just such an all round pleasant lady. I love watching her interactions. Never snarky, never annoyed. Or good at not showing being annoyed. Im so pleased that she got this dig.
Gosh I love this show. I am in Chicago and I remember watching the old episodes with Mick, Tony, Phil and the gang years ago. I have learned so much and enjoyed so much. Because of some medical conditions I will never realize my life's dream and visit England but Time Team has shown me places I would never have seen otherwise. Thanks to all 😃
I still find myself looking for Mick in the background. Him. Tony, Phil and Stewart had great chemistry. I'm grateful.to be able to watch the older shows. Rest easy Mick. Thanks for all the wonderful teachings.
Season 3 of Professor Alice Robert's show Digging for Britain features Matt sharing the presenting duties along with Alice. Very short season, only 3 episodes, and Matt is in every one of them.
Look, I haven't even finished the episode -- but watching John and Stuart walking around together through the fields, checking John's phone, is such a brilliant development in their working relationship. Those who don't know their history on Time Team (they weren't arch-rivals, but disagreed a lot, and even argued against each other's discipline) won't get how beautiful a moment this is to behold. It starts around 9 minutes in. What a great sight to behold!
I wanna see the clip where Stuart says to John, "Lemme take you for a walk, John." "Ok, but I'm bringing my phone." "Deal. And something to write with."
So great to see the original time team back on a dig ! It must be so nice for you all to still get to work together after so many years and on such an amazing site
Just been transported back to my younger days, brilliant to see so many new and old faces bringing Time Team back. Amazing how the technology has changed so much in such a relatively short period. Walking around with a real time geophysical map on a smart phone compared to those old dot matrix printouts! Always loved how Stewart could just eyeball a landscape and glean so much information backed up by Johns data (or not)!
With all of the absolutely astounding (constant & interactive) coverage we had on Patreon, I'm amazed that such a monumental job of editing was accomplished so quickly in preparation for this Live Show. A HUGE thank you to everyone who burned the midnight oil getting this together, and to everyone involved in front of and behind the cameras. Time Team is growing bigger & better... a TT Patreon in Canada, I couldn't be more proud watching this unfold... and there's more post-ex goodness on the way. 🥳
Yes, I'm always amazed at the production values of what they release quickly! Not being a polished final programme it could reasonably be just 'rough and ready' but we get such high quality coverage some people have wondered why these 'episodes' are so different from classic TT 😄 (the same happened even with Dig Watch!)
@@musical3lottie I saw a comment or two and thought if they just considered the logistical constraints they'd realize how impressive the productions truly are.
As an American with a long British heritage, I am thrilled to be a Patreon for years now and seeing how much is learned of and the amazing finds is overwhelmingly exciting!
Congratulations to the 36 Patreons who were lucky enough to be selected & represent each and every one of us Patreons who did not get selected. Good luck for future "Applicants" for future sites!! Gotta love a LIVE transmission, no big deal with the minor "glitches". I think this is going to become a real "Annual Event" for Time Team & Sutton Hoo as long as the "discoveries" warrant the intrusions. So good to get this "Behind the Scenes" look at what promises to be an incredible finished Special Episode next year. Tony, we missed ya!, Love Gus for the new 3 Day Digs, but glad you decided to come back! Will be a Patreon for as long as I can, what a legacy that is being created with the help of the Fans!! TIME TEAM is BACK spread the word. Great to see so many of the old gang and all the new members.
Its been an absolute pleasure working alongside you guys, special thanks to Dani, Matt and Naomi for taking the time to chat and share their expertise. The highlight for me was processing and recording all the small finds including the tool Helen has shown Tony. Ill definitely be there again next year
This was beautiful and it makes me impatient for the full story on the finds. It is always a pleasure to see the original Time Team people working together again, teaching me things I never knew I didn't know.
I want to say Thanks you to the Time Team crew for making my visit to Sutton Hoo such a wonderful experience. Seeing it all really made an Old dream come true. You were all so wonderful and including during my visit. I asked a few of the original members why they answered Tim's call and I got the same answer "The people". And having met so many of you now I totally agree, you are a lovely bunch of people! 😊😊❤❤❤ I can't wait for next year to make a second visit. Will John get his wish come tru? Well, he's got my vote. I hope to see you all agin soon. Best wishes, Mikael from Sweden
Banger. Absolutely fantastic reprise of Tony Robinsons brilliant "can I come in your trench" with Baldric. This brings me and I'm certain so many others the happy nostalgia of late night syndicated BBC in the states. Wonderful dig!
31:48 to 33:40 Week 2 - Another possible boat burial on geo-phys!!! How awesome! Something to look at next year if you can deal with the water table Wonderful work and great to see the team together.
@@classicambo9781 Indeed, there is a good chance it is in excellent condition but I am not so certain it is a burial. It's placement makes it more likely to be a sunk ship or one that was abandoned on the beach then a burial, those are usually higher up. But anything is possible (including the ship being a Roman ship or a viking Knarr), with just the size to go on, dating the ship and figure out why it is there will require some rather muddy excavation.
Brilliant to see this summary of the dig rushed to us on the final day of actual digging. Some fascinating glimpses of things to whet our appetites for the finished release next year! Eagerly awaited... Well done Time Team from a Patreon supporter 👏👏👏
I can't wait until you guys do your magic on the new way of digging, and on the raw cut of this special right off the press video of the TT doing their work!!! Three cheers! I felt it, too! You folks are all so special. If you get permission to go back next year, I want to volunteer! Love it! THANK YOU! (It was so good to see everyone again.)♥
The fact that Tony and Time Team are still going strong does my soul good 😭😭 Ive watched these for over twenty years, I remember when they were on channel 4. I would watch them after school with my dinner lol
ah matt. the continued evolution of your career brings me such inordinate joy. whether it was as an inmate in lincoln jail, or a lay brother at a monastery you always had a positive impact. you never met me and you likely never will, but youve had a truly awesome impact on me. thank you for it :)
Wow, to be one of those Patreons selected had to be a phenomenal experience! I've really grown to really love everything Time Team over the past year or so. And I hope that's a boat and not a septic tank lol
I’m an avid fan….always have been from day one. I remember when it first came on the tv and I was hooked. I’ve watched every single show. Oh, I do wish it was still on the tv but it’s lovely having some shows on here 😃💚🧡🇬🇧
Love time team . Thank you all. Great watch , please some back and revisited this site. Thanks tony , stew, John, Helen, carenza etc all. Maybe one day you can drag Phil out of the pub to do some digging ;)
This is a real testament to the work and dedication of the original Time Team, who when they started so many years ago were a joke in the archaeological world and were not allowed anywhere near a 'real' site. Initially a lot of the digs were where people had to have a dig done as part of the planning process. Yet bit by bit they achieved professional recognition to now where they are running digs at Sutton Hoo of all places! Congrats to all who helped to achieve this over the years, not to mention the general raising interest, awareness of archaeology and the processes involved.
In Canada here. I've watched Time Team well, since Tony had hair! Always a great show with great personalities and, lots of learning. I believe it to be the best "reality show" ever.
So nice to see Tony and the classic Crew together again, i must have watched the 20 seasons of time team dozens of times during my own time at university studying Archeologie. And also kudos of seeing the Diggers and Archeologists barefoot around the Bones, i know its to prevent them from smahing some bones by accident, but i personly find it gives the whole thing a little bit more dignety then steppeing on another mans Grave and Bones in Wellies or Combat Boots. cnt wait for next Years Streams :), is it a boat, it has to be...
Could be another boat !!??….. then …. Silence ??…. Guys you’re killing me ! Love the show..great work, but the waiting is torture arrrgh ! Just have to be patient I spose. Carry on Gang ! XO
Even if not another burial but of the time would be amazing... Speaking of silence, the first live streams were a bit challenging. The results in this compilation are even better than DigWatch. TimeTeam, you are much appreciated!
@@sushirules I don't think it is a burial since it is so close to the water and seems to be close or in a lost deep channel. It is more likely a sunk or abandoned ship. The problem is that digging it is that it is deep under the water level so it would be far too time consuming this summer. Next year with a focus on it, things would be different because since it is under the water level, chances are high that it is well preserved. That is, if it is a ship of course. But if it would be a well preserved ship it would be another amazing Sutton hoo find. It doesn't have to be a Saxon ship though, it could be Roman or viking as well. It is a bit wide for a viking warship but it could be a larger knarr or it could be Norman as well. You have to dig it to really date it after all.
@@elisabeth6108 If it is well preserved and Saxon (there are Roman and viking finds in the area too and if we go just by size the boat doesn't have to be Saxon just because there are ship burials nearby) we could learn a lot from it. Is it similar to Scandinavian ships of the same time? I don't think it is since once the vikings arrived in the late 8th century they had a technological advantage with their ships but it is a bit hard to say since we basically have marks and nails left of ships like the Sutton Hoo ship and while that tells us some things, there is a lot of unknown factors). We don't know when the Saxon started using sails either. The Swedes started to use the in the 7th century and the Saxons did use them in late Saxon period but they could have started a couple of centuries earlier or later then the Swedes (for some reason are there more Swedish ships from that period preserved while Norway and Denmark have more from the late viking period). So yeah, it is exciting. :)
I love the whole gang and I love time team and their gentle ribbing but I have to say l adore Sir Tony. He is such an amazing , rounded person. Even though he is very humble and self deprecating, he truly is a stand out in so many areas. His love of history, his acting, his charity work and his kindness make him very special. It doesn’t hurt he looks amazingly like my late father( also an amazing, kind, funny man) 😉☺️
My thoughts exactly. Though my mobility isn't limited, I don't want to travel to the UK and support it at this time, with Gaza going on. But eventually, hopefully things will get better. The archaeology is waiting for us ;-)
@@margaretrowlands8162 I am assuming they will have volunteers again, as they did in this video. As a patron, they let us know they were accepting some volunteers to work with the team. They had an application for you to fill out and that didn't mean you would be chosen. You also had to be able to get there on your own and pay for your own arrangements, if chosen. I didn't even try to fill it out because I knew I couldn't afford to fly into England let alone pay for transportation to the site and finding a place to stay. It would be a dream of mine to help on a dig! It would be a dream of mine to see England. There was no mention of having volunteers again. That was my hope only.
@@theresacrubaugh2095 I hope that they will have volunteers again. Of course, it's a way to reward fans of TT. But I felt that it added an element of interest.
@@elizabethneill3825 I think it adds towards the interest of becoming a patron, as well as, to keep being a patron. But offered, or not, I will remain a patron as long as I can.
It was nice to see all the weekly snippets put together. It gives a much better understanding of the process. Will we be sharing in the post-excavation processes as well? We've seen the first steps, the digging. I'd love to see what follows.
Let's hope more people join patreon so there can be more digs. I discovered Time Team last year and I think I have watched every bit out there. Good luck on future episodes. I also like watching what I can on the ship building. The US doesn't have good programs. Looking forward to something more on Poverty Point also. Thanks
Such a great series. The package of actors, staff and flow were just so good. I’m so happy to be in the age to appreciate everything. Thank you everyone
This is all so exciting! Thank you for sharing this “raw edit?” It’s wonderful to see so many of the original gang back together. I was hoping they would mention Phil when they found the flints. I would love to see him make a visit to the site. To me he wasn’t always given the serious respect he deserved; often being the target of teasing. I think he was loved by his teammates, but perhaps not as esteemed, possibly because he didn’t come across as the well heeled professor, with his regional accent, and he wasn’t as reserved. It shouldn’t be that way, but I think there is still a remnant of the class system alive and well in the UK. Nevertheless, I love Time Team, and I’m particularly pleased that Tony is back presenting.
What another wonderful video! Thank you so much for being able to share it with us all. Your work & knowledge is amazing and Sutton Hoo is a remarkable place with a very special atmosphere. Amazing! ❤️xx
I've watched over the years, Time Team's discoveries. We lived just east of Sutton Hoo at RAF Woodbridge from 1984-87. My kids had the opportunity to see some excavations during that time.
the absolute and utter joy this place of death brings your lives, and the genuine thrill and joy of discovery you all feel, is quite infectious. no matter how much my life sucks you guys always cheer me up. or make me even happier when im not sad. i really appreciate you all, and im so glad you all got to dig there. thanks for sharing your adventures.
Absolutely and totally amazing looking forward to watching the full episode of the dig absolutely love time team have done since it was on TV on a Sunday and always a must watch never miss show big thanks too all the Time Team for this fascinating look at Sutton Hoo and everything yet to be discovered ❤
loving the difference 30 years has made.. now John and Stewart are grey haired elders looking at an Iphone screen, 30 years ago we were astounded by a black and white dot matrix print out at Alfreds stronghold
Fascinating, I remember boring my two kids years ago insisting on watching Time Team on a Sunday afternoon/evening and the importance of learning about our past. Dragged them around Okehampton, Lydford and Compton Castles etc. Not sure if those are their happiest memories but they were mine!!
Please explain the metallic artifact found at the end. Tony was so excited but it was not clear what we were looking at! Flat surface with something etched into it? A head/ face?
7 หลายเดือนก่อน +8
It could be the missing pieces of the metal bucket that they had found in a much earlier dig - its on show in the Exhibition Centre
Really interesting stuff. Just been to visit the Longshed at Woodbridge and the volunteers are still chiselling (axeing) away at the planks. Lovely days visit.
I live in Canada now, but I remember watching this show in the 90s as a kid after my Sunday roast before getting ready for school the next day... classic
The phenomenon tuduu tududu brings me back to a course during a minor in automotive design, which had one lecture of 4 hours straight of a highly ranked professor just going on and on and on about phenomenon. At the break around 2.5 hours I shared that every time he said phenomenon my head would go tuduu tududu. This ofc sparked this phenomenon in the heads of the other students and at a certain point you could see us all mentally go tuduu tududu until on of my classmates started laughing and we all ended up in a laughing fit and the teacher and professor thought we went crazy. We sorta did as I have remembered nothing of that lecture. But that was a fun moment.
Phil Harding would have loved all those flint microliths! Personally, I'm excited to know about the boat-like feature John found. I'm thinking it may well be later than Saxon but would still be an exceptional find if it is a boat.
Seeing Stewart and John walking a field and figuring out its story touches my heart. Legends, both of them. So gratified to see the team working together again on something so important. Pretty sure Dr. Mick, Robin, Victoria and the rest are out there with them making sure they go right.
That's exactly what touched me as well! 🙂
Yeah, still not sure why i got choked up at that part. I think it’s just…beautiful.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. John was in the first episode already and Steward showed up in... the third, I think.
It is just a shame Phil is busy in Avesbury, him and John's arguments was always a high-point too.
I did like to see the team doing a more traditional dig since most archaeologists don't work in 3 days (yeah, they did 4 days in the Byzantine bucket episode and 6 days in Nevis and I might be missing something but 4 weeks is unheard of). Let's hope they get back next year and try to find John's ship and possible grave.
Agree Stewart and John are awesome
And now they carry all the technology in a mobile phone!
Sir Tony. 77 years old and just as sharp and charming as ever.
Helen Geake is just such an all round pleasant lady. I love watching her interactions. Never snarky, never annoyed. Or good at not showing being annoyed. Im so pleased that she got this dig.
Me, too! And I am fascinated by Anglo-Saxon archaeology, so I'm very pleased for myself as well.
Perhaps she shows annoyance but no, nor snark.
I think Helen is such a lovely person, and so knowledgeable !
Gosh I love this show. I am in Chicago and I remember watching the old episodes with Mick, Tony, Phil and the gang years ago. I have learned so much and enjoyed so much. Because of some medical conditions I will never realize my life's dream and visit England but Time Team has shown me places I would never have seen otherwise. Thanks to all 😃
Hopefully one day you'll be well enough🙏🏼
Me too. Ill not make it there, this is a miracle blessing.
I used to watch them after school in the nineties 😭 lol They were on channel 4 here in England every Thursday I think 🤔 lol
I still find myself looking for Mick in the background. Him. Tony, Phil and Stewart had great chemistry. I'm grateful.to be able to watch the older shows. Rest easy Mick. Thanks for all the wonderful teachings.
Matt is a brilliant presenter. He is such a natural. Hope we see him more up front in future. Just love Time Team!
Matt is a great communicator.
Season 3 of Professor Alice Robert's show Digging for Britain features Matt sharing the presenting duties along with Alice. Very short season, only 3 episodes, and Matt is in every one of them.
Absolutely. Having an archeologist present makes is so much more relevent
What a privilege to be involved again. I was involved in the 80's dig and have had the pleasure to dig again at Sutton Hoo. What a great June xx
congratulations! That's absolutely splendid.
It was lovely to meet you Katrina. Keep up the good job with the t-shirts 😃 Penny
Yes; lovely to meet you and I hope our paths cross again soon! 🥰
My God, you have a dream come true!!

can hardly wait for more.
@@eleidalshe's appears to be a confident no nonsense type. I wouldn't want to cross her though I like she loves Anglo-Saxon.
Wonderful to see :)
Every time they mention flint, I hear Phil Harding go "OOOoooh!"! ^^
Oh Helen, all these years on and still you excite me with your mind and enthusiasm 😍
Thank you for doing this, seeing everyone come back for a dig of this significance means a lot to so many of us ❤️
Alright. I have decided that this is worth some money. I'll do what I can. It's worth it. Thanks for the new content.
100% 👍😁 I pay yearly as a birthday present to myself... it's the gift that gives back, all year long.
So great to see the original time team back on a dig !
It must be so nice for you all to still get to work together after so many years and on such an amazing site
That whole MY GOD IT'S A BOAT moment was amazing ... I can't wait until this is really all excavated!

I love the whole gang and I love time team and their gentle ribbing but I have to say l adore Sir Tony. He is such an amazing , rounded person.
Even though he is very humble and self deprecating, he truly is a stand out in so many areas. His love of history, his acting, his charity work and his kindness make him very special.
It doesn’t hurt he looks amazingly like my late father( also an amazing, kind, funny man) 😉☺️
Very cool having Patreon volunteers too. That’s on my bucket if there’s peace on earth again.❤
My thoughts exactly. Though my mobility isn't limited, I don't want to travel to the UK and support it at this time, with Gaza going on. But eventually, hopefully things will get better. The archaeology is waiting for us ;-)
@@eleidalwhy would Gaza going on stop you from going to Britain!?
I hope we make it back next year! And maybe I can save enough money to apply to be a volunteer. That would be a dream!
Woah! I didn't know you could do this. How do you do it?
@@margaretrowlands8162 I am assuming they will have volunteers again, as they did in this video. As a patron, they let us know they were accepting some volunteers to work with the team. They had an application for you to fill out and that didn't mean you would be chosen.
You also had to be able to get there on your own and pay for your own arrangements, if chosen.
I didn't even try to fill it out because I knew I couldn't afford to fly into England let alone pay for transportation to the site and finding a place to stay. It would be a dream of mine to help on a dig! It would be a dream of mine to see England.
There was no mention of having volunteers again. That was my hope only.
@@theresacrubaugh2095 I hope that they will have volunteers again. Of course, it's a way to reward fans of TT. But I felt that it added an element of interest.
Not that it wasn't interesting enough.
@@elizabethneill3825 I think it adds towards the interest of becoming a patron, as well as, to keep being a patron. But offered, or not, I will remain a patron as long as I can.
This was wonderful! Thankyou to everyone who made it happen, I very much enjoyed it!
HELEN the boss time teamer.,,,level headed and all information delivered without fanfare.the real deal.
It was nice to see all the weekly snippets put together. It gives a much better understanding of the process. Will we be sharing in the post-excavation processes as well? We've seen the first steps, the digging. I'd love to see what follows.
And I'd love to learn if the site has been continuously occupied, or not.
Let's hope more people join patreon so there can be more digs. I discovered Time Team last year and I think I have watched every bit out there. Good luck on future episodes. I also like watching what I can on the ship building. The US doesn't have good programs. Looking forward to something more on Poverty Point also. Thanks
Such a great series. The package of actors, staff and flow were just so good. I’m so happy to be in the age to appreciate everything. Thank you everyone
You guys are such a treasure - thanks for uncovering history - and making your own history in the process
You folks are gems, we all know this! Hope you and yours are safe and healthy!🌏🌎🌍😁👍👍👍
Amazing thanks for sharing.
I have been WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!!! ... can't believe I missed the post! So, so cool.❤
This is all so exciting! Thank you for sharing this “raw edit?” It’s wonderful to see so many of the original gang back together. I was hoping they would mention Phil when they found the flints. I would love to see him make a visit to the site. To me he wasn’t always given the serious respect he deserved; often being the target of teasing. I think he was loved by his teammates, but perhaps not as esteemed, possibly because he didn’t come across as the well heeled professor, with his regional accent, and he wasn’t as reserved. It shouldn’t be that way, but I think there is still a remnant of the class system alive and well in the UK. Nevertheless, I love Time Team, and I’m particularly pleased that Tony is back presenting.
Great program. Thank you! Looking forward to future reports and the final program.
What another wonderful video! Thank you so much for being able to share it with us all. Your work & knowledge is amazing and Sutton Hoo is a remarkable place with a very special atmosphere. Amazing! ❤️xx
Thank you. How exciting! Looking forward to the full film and next year.
Thank you and see you next year! Love Time Team!
Thank you for a brilliant 4 weeks. My heart is full.
I love Helen's passion on display at 29:06.
Feels like I'm hearing a bit of Mick Aston in there..
My favorite part of the show is getting the locals involved, dressed in garb, cooking, crafting, and dressing up the Time Team crew!!!
Real Time Team ;-)
That dress Hilde modeled was gorgeous. And, of course, it made it more real.
Those lovely locals are there every Wednesday and Saturday and make the clothes themselves. We are a lovely bunch at Sutton Hoo, come and visit x
The sound does come after a few minutes in and they repeat that early segment at the end. You won't miss anything significant.
Prof mick Astin would have enjoyed this dig. A great legacy on his part.
Dani is a fabulous presenter, she has the time team vibes down to a t!
I've watched over the years, Time Team's discoveries. We lived just east of Sutton Hoo at RAF Woodbridge from 1984-87. My kids had the opportunity to see some excavations during that time.
the absolute and utter joy this place of death brings your lives, and the genuine thrill and joy of discovery you all feel, is quite infectious. no matter how much my life sucks you guys always cheer me up. or make me even happier when im not sad. i really appreciate you all, and im so glad you all got to dig there. thanks for sharing your adventures.
Absolutely and totally amazing looking forward to watching the full episode of the dig absolutely love time team have done since it was on TV on a Sunday and always a must watch never miss show big thanks too all the Time Team for this fascinating look at Sutton Hoo and everything yet to be discovered ❤
Just brilliant, thank you Time Team.
loving the difference 30 years has made.. now John and Stewart are grey haired elders looking at an Iphone screen, 30 years ago we were astounded by a black and white dot matrix print out at Alfreds stronghold
Well, Helen Geake hasn't changed, has she? Marvellous as ever.
Awesome - can't wait for the movie to get more in depth with the finds
It has been great to see sp many facess, old and new. Long live Time team!
Derek and Laurence are like the Bert and Ernie of time time. I love their friendship 😂❤
Really exciting, ready to see the findings... and it seems eternal to wait until next year for the big excavation.
Helen is an outstanding personality. I believe she creates an environment where people want to work hard.
Fascinating, I remember boring my two kids years ago insisting on watching Time Team on a Sunday afternoon/evening and the importance of learning about our past. Dragged them around Okehampton, Lydford and Compton Castles etc. Not sure if those are their happiest memories but they were mine!!
Thanks Guys this was great👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌻🌺
awesome. love the history of the area.
Thanks Helen! Great stuff!
Was there when they filmed the lady saying about goosebumps at 1.10... on Tuesday 25th June. Such a lovely lady
They used that moment in the teaser but never told us what she found!
@@nb6175 hopefully they'll show more sometime
15:49.... There I am in the crowd!
Please explain the metallic artifact found at the end. Tony was so excited but it was not clear what we were looking at! Flat surface with something etched into it? A head/ face?
It could be the missing pieces of the metal bucket that they had found in a much earlier dig - its on show in the Exhibition Centre
Its the bottom half of the Bromeswell bucket. Top half was ploughed up by a farmer in the late 1980's.
@@nickbea3443 thank you!
Really interesting stuff. Just been to visit the Longshed at Woodbridge and the volunteers are still chiselling (axeing) away at the planks. Lovely days visit.
Amazing!!
I live in Canada now, but I remember watching this show in the 90s as a kid after my Sunday roast before getting ready for school the next day... classic
That was most enjoyable. I'm looking forward to the final film. Congratulations!
"We lost 3 guides" Wow that was one hell of a storm ..... Oh, 3 guide ropes :)
Wonderful show! And I loved the Muppet Show reference 🤣
It was good to see Angus on camera 👍
... so excited to watch this - feels like only last year that Matt was a young whipper snapper
Excellent 👍👍
I'd be happy to be there, even doing grunt work. Just to be there when the team makes discoveries.
Great show
The phenomenon tuduu tududu brings me back to a course during a minor in automotive design, which had one lecture of 4 hours straight of a highly ranked professor just going on and on and on about phenomenon. At the break around 2.5 hours I shared that every time he said phenomenon my head would go tuduu tududu. This ofc sparked this phenomenon in the heads of the other students and at a certain point you could see us all mentally go tuduu tududu until on of my classmates started laughing and we all ended up in a laughing fit and the teacher and professor thought we went crazy. We sorta did as I have remembered nothing of that lecture. But that was a fun moment.
Phil Harding would have loved all those flint microliths!
Personally, I'm excited to know about the boat-like feature John found. I'm thinking it may well be later than Saxon but would still be an exceptional find if it is a boat.
Matt’s just gotten better looking. 🥰
Can’t wait for the final film!
why oh why is there only one 'like' button?
