I always love to hear Richard's contributions! Thank you for having him, and thank you, Richard, for being on the podcast! I've grown up in the US, but my mum got her masters and PhD in environmental psychology at the University of Surrey. I often feel like we're very different people whose interests are quite far apart, but hearing Richard talk about those connections between people and their spaces, just like she talks about, but in relation to topics I have more interest in (like history and archaeology!) always makes me feel like I can understand her a bit more. So truly, thank you! Richard is always a favorite of mine.

Martyn Williams

Thanks so much for this. Really glad Richard's appearance on the podcast has brought you closer to your Mum's interest in environment psychology!

There's a reference to a programme about a recent dig on Rousay, but I can't find it. Can you put up a link somewhere please?

Neil

yet another great podcast :) Thanks

Each podcast gets better and better. I look forward to them coming out each fortnight. I wish they were weekly. Well done and thank you! My daughter has bought me a gift from the Time Team shop for Christmas, but I don't know what it is yet!

Very interesting to hear how much cheaper and more efficient drones are compared with having to use helicopters. Also fascinating information about of all things cement. Who’d have thought 😲

Love the new Time Team. A question...why, when you embrace so many new technologies, don't you embrace visual reconstruction of faces, when you find skulls?

I should have figured this out after all my binge watching, however I am still wondering how you determine where to dig for burials? Is it always based on where there were detectorist finds or a previous found burial or does more go into the determination of a site?

Thank you for this new podcast. Really interesting how new technologies can be applied to archaeology. I do have a question. How do you now you have reached the "natural"?

Hi there, thank you very interesting podcast once more i really enjoy them thank you very much. I have a question . . What were dry moats used for /what was their purpose? I can see the multiple uses of a moat with water in particularly if fed by a leat (soz cant spell) from a river)brook but i dont see the point of digging a moat and leaving it dry. Because even defensively it woukd have to be done so it didnt discintegrate with the weather and it is more likely to be breached surely than one full of water and you would still need a way if the inhabitants in the middle of it to get out/in. It seems a lot of work when a ring ditch comolex would surely be better? Also it wouldnt necessarliy be on much higher ground in the centre so i would have thought it would leave them much more vulnerable than if they built a high fence or wall around them instead unless done in conjunction?

Looking forward to the Christmas edition ...my moneys on Helen winning!
