I haven't seen this episode yet (although I have been looking forward to it for a long time). Your enthusiasm is infectious! And, enthusiasm is what I love about Time Team -- professionals who love their work.

2023-07-01 06:09:44 +0000 UTCYes. Heartrending to see Helen vindicated.

2023-07-01 05:08:06 +0000 UTCI want to enthuse about this first installment of the new episodes. Hamerow, Blinkhorn, McKinley, Newton, plus our stalwarts. These are not only our favourite TT friends, but truly brilliant and engaging minds in their fields. I’ve read their books, some publications, and it’s a great thrill to see them in—though it’s only the first of three segments—my favourite thus far of the “new” episodes/sites. Hats off to Tim and the whole team for not only continuing the TT tradition, but elevating it! Cheers!

2023-07-01 05:06:17 +0000 UTCI love it! So glad to see Paul on the show!

2023-06-29 11:04:27 +0000 UTCSo pleased to see Mr Blinkhorn back. I know his lovely accent has changed somewhat, but I bet his sense of humour and amazing expertise is still present.

2023-06-27 23:55:36 +0000 UTCWaiting for the next two installments is going to kill me!
Matthew Hauck
2023-06-27 23:45:50 +0000 UTCThis was great. Can't wait for the next two installments. The pressure when nominating a site must feel intense when you consider Time Team is digging a couple rather than a dozen of sites a year, so was delighted for Helen that the buckle appeared. The format also allowed us longer to explore what had already been discovered. That brooch! Just amazing.
Richard Moss
2023-06-27 21:37:18 +0000 UTCWithout doubt very special this one Time Team . Great direction and super editing . Time Team are back and on form !! love the early Medieval period . Great to see Paul again . "Bally"!! great Job Guys and Gals.
PHILIP MAY
2023-06-27 19:50:46 +0000 UTCPlease hurry and clean the buckle! I can’t wait to see it in all its glory. So happy for Helen!
Irene Daly
2023-06-27 18:07:16 +0000 UTCGreat stuff...love the A/S period & all it entails. (Especially gold n garnets!) Good to see Mr Blinkhorn back too.
Mark Lund
2023-06-27 12:44:50 +0000 UTCVery exciting first day! What I saw of Helen's belt buckle find looked like it might have a stylised animal head on it. I'll be extremely interested to see what it looks like when cleaned up.
Kerry Hennigan
2023-06-27 10:15:42 +0000 UTCIt's so much fun to watch the excavation and discoveries. Glad TT is back doing this important work.
Kate Dillingham
2023-06-26 21:09:49 +0000 UTCFor some reason the color grading looks a bit different to me this time around. Perhaps a different camera? Or possibly the weather worked its lighting magic. Anyway, the production feels great! Loved all the maps showing us what is going on and where. One thing I hope to be included in the next 2 days is an "x marks the spot" comparison - which triangulation method was the most successful. :)
Jakub Jůzl
2023-06-26 20:23:35 +0000 UTCIncredibly exciting. Can't wait for the full set.

2023-06-26 19:46:10 +0000 UTCA very interesting episode and superbly produced, as ever.
Philip Stack
2023-06-26 18:10:37 +0000 UTCAaaw dear Helen! Love this so much! Great to see Paul and Sam too, always love their work.

Richard Wesson
2023-06-26 09:26:39 +0000 UTCAs a huge Helen Geake fan, I’m so thrilled this is her site. And I’m just so excited to see the next two days!
Katy Brown
2023-06-26 09:05:51 +0000 UTCIt's wonderful seeing them back with the team, isn't it? 🥰
Patricia Amero
2023-06-26 08:30:39 +0000 UTCYeah, right…
Mark Freestone

Frank Pellow
2023-06-26 05:42:01 +0000 UTCBravo Helen Geake
Pia Fredfeldt
2023-06-26 05:27:09 +0000 UTCOMG was Grerat to see Paul Blinkhorn there giving his expert views on the pottery that was coming in on some of the test pits. Jackies expertise on the remains of the woman was also very intersting. I have a good feeling that when it comes down to it, Stewart will find the exact spot, cause I have seen him do that exact same thing, form a photograph some yrs ago on the Time Team 1.0. Love the knowledge of Prof. Same Newton. he is walking history books..such a shame that there was so much plow damage to the graves, that are being found and that they were not buried all that deep. or if they were, then over time with the plow, over the years have made the soil around the graves so shallow. I sure pray they can find others that have NOT been so damaged by the plow, but I doubt it. Waiting for part 2 & 3..
Donna Oglesby
2023-06-26 05:02:54 +0000 UTCSO ready for the next 2 days!!
J. Andrew Lockhart
2023-06-26 03:33:43 +0000 UTCAnd John can buy Stew a beer🍺
Eggs Ackley
2023-06-26 03:20:49 +0000 UTCWonderful, I enjoyed that so much. Can't wait for the next part!
Kylie Willison
2023-06-26 02:38:43 +0000 UTCThanks for the episode. I'm looking forward to the last two days. I'm not a betting man, but I'd be willing to bet that Stewart's method of triangulating on trees from a photograph finds the grave of the Anglo-Saxon lady. Trees don't move around :-).
Andy Quick
2023-06-26 01:33:53 +0000 UTCThis was great! I was actually at the dig, and I still learned a whole bunch of new things by watching this episode! Can't wait for the other two to drop.
Leah Kotok
2023-06-26 01:01:39 +0000 UTCAwesome episode. Can’t wait for the rest.
Dyana Mason
2023-06-26 00:52:50 +0000 UTCSo many brilliant minds/old friends! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Doug Mackey
2023-06-26 00:50:36 +0000 UTCOh my goodness! Time Team just keeps getting better and better. What an extraordinary Day 1. Even if Helen said not much was found, it took my breath away. Watching the members of the Team getting together and doing their thing was spectacular. And what could be more typical Time Team than to begin with John and his latest geophys technology vying with Stewart lining up trees! I couldn’t ask for more. Plus it’s an area where my ancestors came from and I have been to Diss. Thanks to everyone for the opportunity to participate in this amazing dig. Waiting with breathless anticipation for Day 2.
JUDITH COOKE
2023-06-26 00:30:12 +0000 UTCI have been waiting for this one! The first part did not disappoint! Can't wait for more!
Pamela Brotherton
2023-06-25 23:52:07 +0000 UTCThat pendant is unbelievable and to be able to see it in such detail. Great start. Looking forward to the next episode. Wonderful to see Carenza, Sam and Paul. And community test pits!
DIANA R NELSON
2023-06-25 23:35:16 +0000 UTCEnjoyed it. What was up with Gus's mic though?
Michael O'Connor
2023-06-25 23:22:33 +0000 UTCI watched the preview and my husband went nuts when he saw Sam's instrument. My husband just made one. (he has taken up making instruments as a hobby) Thank you for that
Ellen Holt
2023-06-25 23:07:42 +0000 UTCThat was really good.
Connie L Merchant
2023-06-25 22:21:58 +0000 UTCGreat to see all these familiar experts in the same dig. Paul especially, and Helena Hamerow. I'm really excited and looking forward to the next helping.
Priscilla Reeve
2023-06-25 22:05:05 +0000 UTCThe immense importance of so many experienced professionals linked with incredibly advanced technology, tiny fragments shedding light on such an interesting place/ time in history... I'm absolutely blown away over and over again. That's it, I'm increasing my Patreon level. I love this... thank you Time Team 🙏
Patricia Amero
2023-06-25 21:55:37 +0000 UTCImpeccable as always!! What a perfect start to a lazy Sunday evening.
Michael Louk
2023-06-25 21:35:18 +0000 UTCMore of the old gang back! Super excited for next weekend!
Chris Berwick
2023-06-25 20:51:08 +0000 UTCAh, so exciting! Great work, everyone!
Michael Sperry
2023-06-25 20:49:59 +0000 UTCAbsolutely fascinating! Eagerly awaiting next weekend.
Pamela A. Parsels
2023-06-25 20:47:33 +0000 UTCWell, I found that super exciting. For me, anything that gives a hint of our Anglo-Saxon past gets my brain in a whirl. So happy for Helen that there's obviously more than the one burial here.
David Billingham
2023-06-25 19:46:58 +0000 UTCSo great to see Paul back!
Simon Orchard
2023-06-25 19:28:00 +0000 UTCGreat to see Paul, Jackie and Sam
Jim Lady
2023-06-25 19:24:43 +0000 UTCSo exciting! Helen getting emotional really hit home. It took years before they hit the 'no finds dig'. Glad she wasn't hit with that here! Always a risk with Anglo Saxons!
S. Douglas Baldwin
2023-06-25 19:24:14 +0000 UTCHelen and Gus summed up Time Team so well, "It's never as easy as you thought it would be."
Jude Edling
2023-06-25 19:06:11 +0000 UTCEnjoyed Day 1. Wonderful to see all the immense Time Team archeology experience on one dig. Including Paul Blinkhorn, Jackie, & Sam Newton. Looking forward to what they learn from our Lady's teeth - lived in Frankia & locally? Excited for next weekend!
Di
2023-06-25 19:03:48 +0000 UTCFantastic preview, Patreon subscribers spoilt as always! The pressure on the dig lead isn’t always obvious, so a really lovely detail to see Helen’s relief! Can’t wait for next weekend!!
Justin Freeman
2023-06-25 18:44:39 +0000 UTCAw, Helen getting all emotional. Great episode. Looking forward to Friday and next weekend.
Karen Foley
2023-06-25 18:41:06 +0000 UTCExcellent! Great to see something filmed not to far from where I live.
Erin Kerton
2023-06-25 18:38:40 +0000 UTCI look forward to finding out more next week!
Elizabeth Gildersleeve
2023-06-25 18:38:11 +0000 UTCI second that - such a pleasure to see Paul Blinkhorn again.
Elizabeth B Hess
2023-06-25 18:36:33 +0000 UTCExcellent!! We all feel Helen's emotions over this.
Carol Overrill
2023-06-25 18:36:26 +0000 UTCLoved it. Well done Time Team!
