- We're thrilled that Kerry Ely - long running team member, prankster and all-round Mr Logistics - will be returning to the fold for this year's Roman villa dig!
Kerry first joined the show as a digging archaeologist on the suggestion of his close friend, Mick Aston. He later moved into the production side and was key to organising everything on site, from helicopters to porta-loos. Kerry played an integral role in keeping everything running smoothly, both on and off screen.
In our exclusive Teatime interview, Tim Taylor catches up with Kerry to look back at his favourite moments and find out what he's up to now.

Kerry’s presence will definitely contribute immensely to reproducing Time Team’s unique character.
I'm so glad to see this as I always felt Kerry was undervalued.👍🏻
I always thought same thing, but a lot were under rated like Tracey and others that I would have liked to see more of..
Dear Mr. Kerry Ely, You Sir are a National TREASURE!
I am so enjoying these interviews. There is always a surprise, like seeing Kerry in uniform.
So good to see Kerry again. Definitely tuning in and looking forward to hearing from him. Addendum: As I suspected, Kerry's interview was wonderful. I, too, love the military sites. To listen to him talk about D-Day and the Dorset man from the program was worth it a listen for sure.
I am so grateful Time Team is coming back to us. I grew up finding arrowheads on my grandparents farm here in Massachusetts and the excitement of the find is what its all about. Look at the expression on Phil's face when he comes up with a find, Priceless! Thanks Farmer Rich.
I grew up looking for arrowheads here in the Western USA (very far from Mass.) and that experience of finding things is still with me as an adult.
@@maxb4074 Thank you so much for the reply, you made my day!
@@deereating9267 I passed my farm to my son who wanted it. He is doing a great job but farmers today seldom actually put thier feet on the ground. Mostly on the tractor. He has not found any yet . But I am hopefull. Nice talking to you.
You can see some amazing detail from Google earth.
Try it.
@@TermiteUSA Thanks for the tip,I will try it.
Still as handsome as ever, Kerry. That boyish grin , sweet smile & mischievous glint in your eyes.
I'm in the USA, & I thank every service member I can identify. Thankyou for your service to your country and the rest of the world. Thankyou for working with kids who may not have any guidance in life. You give them the confidence they need and the ability to make life's decisions correctly.
I am more than happy to see that Kerry Ely is gonna be coming back for the New Time Team!! Awesome! Love these interviews and some of their personal thoughts and experiences:-)
I love the idea of including jokes pulled by the guys.
I liked the one they pulled on Geophys with the fake resistivity rig .... and ran it over with a land rover John Gater almost messed his pants on that one ...
@@0623kaboom Is there a video of that?
Smashing to see Kerry again. Always good to have Mr Dependable on site!
I was just thinking of the Salisbury Plain soldiers. They all had PTSD, There was one man in particular who suffered severe PTSD. It was watching Time Team that helped him, for some reason watching the team dig and so forth, helped him with all the stress. He was actually going to take courses at college for archeology the show helped him so much. I often wonder how they are all doing. One young guy walked out dressed like Phil with straw hair, haha it was funny.
I love that one on so many levels
Am pleased to say that those guys are still going. They have been digging, and I have the joy of working with the guys (and gals) building a Bronze Age house at Butser Ancient Farm.
Them you will be glad to know operation nightingale mentioned in the show has evolved into a permanent office in mod dedicated to giving as many members of British forces with ptsd help as they can.
Oh yes, Operation Nightingale does more than just those with PTSD. As with the Barrow Clump dig we saw on Time Team they also work with those with life changing injuries. One of the Barrow Clump vets now leads Op Nightingale's sister body Breaking Ground Heritage while others are professional archaeologists. The University of Winchester's archaeological department has a project called Heritage for Heroes which a) is, with University of Portsmouth, doing academic research into the mental health benefits of Operation Nightingale, and b) gives a number of free places to Service veterans to do a degree in archaeology.
Speaking of the wonderful subject of pranks and humor … any Time Team bloopers?
I’m glad Kerry will be included, all will be in order, and nothing lifts the spirits like a pre-prank belly laugh, and a good prank well done!
Kerry had a distinctive appealing semi-introverted personality. I really enjoyed his contributions to the program.
God bless Kerry Ely! Time Teams "Guardian Angel!/ Safety Expert/Big Brother Figure/ Body Guard/ Archaeologist's BEST MATE! Mr. NOBODY GET HURT ON MY WATCH! Flippin HERO!!!!!!!!!! 💪☂🔐✅🍀🏆🥇🏅‼
Would love to participate and/or learn with Kerry and the team when I visit the UK is Spring 2022! At the very least, I'll be visiting some of the sites! So excited!
Good stuff to see who was not in the front row but was on the team.
i love all these and really enjoyed this one. thanks TT
Good to see. x
Tony’s number plate when they did his car up like the police “TUR N1P” 😂😂
He didn’t put that bit in his book! 👍
Can’t wait!
A military man who shares a name with a cathedral started as a digger and ended up logistics chief for the whole show. Positively poetic.
Great interview and so glad he is joining the team.
One of the best jokes is on the "Best of Time Team" dvd. Kerry and Jimmy mocked up a mag sus machine and got Ian P drive over it in a digger. John G's reaction was wonderful, I just want to know if John got his promised revenge?
i am bouncing up and down in my seat! 😀🖖
My 7yo boy Kerry is excited to see you, as well. (He's named after a great-uncle)
Say what? Teaching values and respect to young people! What an extraordinary good idea!
More's the pity no one thought of it sooner!!! !:-) 💜👍🙏🖖
what a shame that paper files are being thrown out! i can only hope they have been digitized.
Is he in the army?
In the video it says he's ex-forces & now p/t as a Colour Sergeant in the Wiltshire Army Cadet Force.
He talks about that starting around 5:00. He says he's a leader in the Army Cadet Force, which I gather is something like the JROTC in the USA. He's part-time there, so it's like being in the Reserves in the USA.
@@expatpiskie From the Cap Badge etc; former Colour Sergeant in the Rifles.
@@jefflanam Army Cadets isn't part of the Reserves but, basically, an almost exact yes. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_Cadet_Force Kerry is a Cadet Force Adult Volunteer, a civilian permitted to use his former regular rank as a courtesy. As he refers to himself as a Colour Sergeant (NATO OR-7, US Equiv: E-7, Sergeant First Class), that was his rank in the Regulars (as I say above, from the Cap Badge, he was in The Rifles)
Tim - the old time team is getting a large amount of play on youtube and you probably are not getting your residuals. may i suggest, putting all old episodes on here and then have youtube stop all others who make $ from your show.
People went to the time and effort to provide those episodes over so many years. Without that service, we would have missed so much enjoyment. They deserve to be thanked.
@@archeanna1425 so its ok for me to copy tim's work and make profit when Tim gets nothing. And those people did not put those videos on out of the goodness of their hearts, they make money.
I can't vouch for that 100%, but I'm pretty sure Tim does not own the copyright to any of the episodes - Channel 4 does, or did if they sold it to somebody, and Tim is just an ex-employee of theirs. Those owning the episodes are providing them to a bunch of different companies running channels like Absolute History, Timeline and Odyssey - for money or for free - and this channel is no exception.
We currently have 40 episodes (with more to follow) from Series 12 to 16 officially available worldwide on TH-cam (with the exclusion of Australia, due to existing licensing agreements) on our sister channel, Time Team Classics: th-cam.com/users/TimeTeamClassics
Availability of other series on various platforms will vary locally due to existing licensing arrangements.
