You’ve already had a sneak peek at our new dig at Farley Moor, but now it’s time to see the full story unfold! Join us tonight for the complete episode as the Expedition Crew digs deeper into the mystery of this enigmatic standing stone.

You’ll follow Lawrence, Naomi, Derek, and Hilde as they investigate this rugged Peak District site, piecing together clues and uncovering the secrets hidden in the landscape. Could this solitary stone be a remnant of a lost Bronze Age monument, or does it hold a different secret entirely?

Catch the premiere tonight at 7pm (GMT) on YouTube, and don’t forget to join the live chat! The Expedition Crew themselves will be there to answer your questions, share stories from the dig, and, of course, probably make a few bad jokes along the way!

New Episode! | The Mystery of the Standing Stone | Time Team X Crew

In this episode, the Time Team Expedition Crew—Lawrence, Naomi, Derek, Hilde, and a small group of volunteers—head to Farley Moor, Derbyshire, just outside the Peak District National Park. This rugged landscape of gritstone moors is rich in prehistoric monuments, from henges and ring cairns to stone circles, but the team’s focus is a single, enigmatic standing stone. Could it be a remnant of a larger, lost, Bronze Age monument? Armed with little more than their camper vans, digging tools, and cameraman Ben to document their journey, the team sets out to map, investigate, and uncover the hidden history of this mysterious site. Join us as we follow their discoveries and explore the forgotten secrets of Farley Moor.

Mika

I see BBC is spoiling the episode!

Des D

Looking forward to it 💪

Martin Packer

I saw that, too. I n 2 minds: Good publicity but definitely a spoiler. How we get there is, of course, important.

Ann Wagner

Icky Chert, rebellious archaeologist and rock drummer.

Elessa Wylde

This was an incredible watch. Yay for the dating evidence!

The Digging Gardener

Well done Guys and Gals, that was fantastic! It would be great to hear more about any future plans the Forestry Commission might have for the site.

Martin Packer

Great show. And nice to see the team show up in the chat.

Alan McMillan

Good to see progress on the site. At least, the weather is asleep! Ish!

Robin Horton

Not just the BBC. Opened my Times this morning and there was the story before it got to the BBC website. Somewhat spoilt my day. However enjoyed the intellectual process of arriving at the conclusion shown in the video. Well worth watching.

Mike Darby

Brilliant, well done team, and proving it was early Bronze Age, nailed the whole site!

Iain Odlin

Why has this been "teal and orange"d? Archaeology is a real subject, and all screwing with the color space does is make the world look distractingly and horribly unreal. There is absolutely no reason for intentionally making the picture ugly and making the skin of every human look creepy. Please *please* stop doing it.

Alan Murdock

Several questions: #1 Since the water table is shallow and tree roots are near the surface. How would they disrupt the stones? #2 There are features on the lidar map showing many pits in a row. Are they the results of forestry or something else? #3 What was the environment like when the stones were placed. Was it a forest, grassland, mixed? Been a member since this started, inquiring minds want to know.

Mike Worsdale

I didn't see the BBC or Times story, but they must have shown enough spoilers to spoil things.

JUDITH COOKE

The photography was absolutely marvellous, providing the viewer with an extraordinarily intimate and emotional connection with the site, the Team and the action. I could almost feel and smell the grit! Well done everyone and congratulations to Naomi for the sensational dating result. And I just love that standing stone!

Mike Worsdale

If the cobbled platform was in place before the standing stone, I wonder how they managed to erect the stone and in such a way it appears to be floating. Definitely a site worthy of further research.

Carl Johnson

I wish I could have watched the live stream today, but still enjoyed watching later in the evening. I really enjoyed the presentation of the dig. The blend of close and wide shots really made if feel like I was there and the 3D imaging of the ancient landscape with all the stones mapped made it easier to imagine how the stones could have been used. And finally, the team owes Naomi a round for getting that date from the flakes of charcoal.

Lynn Marsh Freeman

Excellent work. Loved seeing this small “strike team” working together!

Barbara B.

I wonder how the landscape would have looked if the people who erected the stones tended the site to keep the iron rich soil exposed? That would have made for a stunning color contrast for anyone coming upon the site.

Michael Sperry

MAGNIFICENT! What a great expedition! I love the highly focused aspect of the story, just trying to answer one specific question. And what an answer! Wow! I love the camaraderie between the team members. Makes me wish I could be there with them.

Robin Smith

This was really well done. It gets the imagination going. I could see people coming to gather at the spring in my mind.

Tanis Sugden

Fantastic episode. I love following the archeologists reveal this site. I haven't enjoyed an episode as much.

Mika

Was an excellent episode - a focused one, showing how the trenches progressing changed the interpretation and the discussions around it. A detective story, really, with pieces coming together at the end in a satisfying way with the spring, the stone platform and the 2000 BC radiocarbon dating (with the reclining stone's standing stone credentials and the stone "pathway" still left slightly open). Towards the end of the episode, it looked like Hilde's trench matched the colour of her hair while Naomi's and Lawrence's trenches were close to their respective colours as well. Some kind of mystic "colourative determinism" in trench selection, or maybe a little inside joke by the production team in exaggerating these colours😁

Simon Orchard

Fantastic episode. Smaller more targeted digs but with the same high standards of production are clearly easier and cheaper to produce. Can't wait to get back out into the field again myself.

Frances Alayne Perrott

Sorry to be critical of a very nice episode, but your diggers are confusing the iron-rich illuvial B horizon of a typical British acid soil, with the natural bedrock.

Rick Shepard

Really enjoyed this! I've seen reporting about this other than the BBC that clearly credits Time Team and Lawrence and Derek specifically. Great to see TT getting some recognition.

Erica Griffith

This was an amazing show! Thank you for this. Super interesting. More please!!!!

Lorna Dryden

Incredible and ancient circles are found all over the world, maybe one day the link will be found 🙏

Jennifer Thompson

So enjoyable and informative. Always a pleasure to learn from experts who love their profession.

Debbie Gerlock

I love this new X format! Have a question, I noticed parallel grooves in the stone that Hilde was working on. Were they natural, caused by plowing, or from ancient times?

Janet Hay

This is a great format, resulting in an excellent programme, with all the best Time Team features. Impressive and very helpful graphics too, though I would have appreciated a few more highlights in places to make things clearer. This programme shows the huge potential for the X dig format. Thank you all. 👏

Anthony

I have finally watched this episode, and was enthralled. What a great dig.

Des Bowring

Really interesting dig. I wondered why it was initially assumed (and confirmed at the end) that this was an early Bronze Age site rather than a Neolithic one. I am conscious that there are no neat distinctions to be made between the two, and megalithic monument-building presumably persisted, for a time at least, into the Bronze-age.

Brooke

Loved watching this team work together, hope to see more!

Dyana Mason

This was a great episode. Thank you! I’m curious how this site was chosen?

Jnet

Absolutely loved this episode! Would love to see more investigation from the surrounding area

Tallulah Cunningham

The music in this is so good! I would love to chip some money in to just have a background music of Time Team download to play in my studio when I'm settling in to work - is there any chance that already it exists and I just haven't looked hard enough?
