Time Team

You're invited to a special meet-up at the pub where the whole Time Team gang gathered to celebrate five years of the show's return. We say thank you to the fans who brought us back with an episode recorded at The George Inn, London.
Helen Geake and Martyn Williams chat to Sir Tony Robinson, John Gater, Gus Casely-Hayford, Jackie McKinley, Derek Pitman, Lawrence Shaw and many more. They reminisce on the last five years of adventures and answer questions sent in by Time Team members.

Archaeologist Dr Helen Geake and co-host Martyn Williams explore the world of archaeology.
In this episode Richard Osgood, from Operation Nightingale, reveals what it was really like to excavate at Time Team's latest dig; the princely burial at Cherington. You'll also meet the conservator tasked with bringing an Anglo-Saxon sword back to life.
Time Team's environmental archaeologist, Naomi Sewpaul, takes you on a tour of the lab where she analyses wood and charcoal samples and Helen answers your questions.
There's also Time Team News where we discuss the amazing discoveries at Sizewell C, the site that will eventually be home to a new nuclear power station for the UK. You can read about that and the other stories we mention in the links below:

Archaeologist Helen Geake and co-host Martyn Williams speak to Richard Osgood ahead of Time Team's return to the village of Cherington, where excavation of an Anglo-Saxon cemetery continues. You'll also meet some of the military veterans working on the site who are part of Operation Nightingale, an organisation which uses archaeology to help former and serving military personnel recover from psychological injuries. The brand new Time Team film, 'Return To The Princely Burial: The Sword In The Stones?' is released on YouTube this Saturday.
There's also the remarkable story of how Time Team's logo came to be. You'll meet Jamie Wiggins, who designed it at just 18 years old. The show's current graphic artist, Neil Emmanuel, talks about how the design has evolved.
Helen's also answering questions from Time Team members.
