New Episode! | Day 1: Digging for Disney | TIME TEAM (Norton Disney) 2025

Join us for Episode 1 of our brand new 3 Day dig this Friday 5th September at 7pm BST! Episode 2 & 3 will be released on the 6th & 7th September at 7pm. Don't miss it! Time Team visit Norton Disney in rural Lincolnshire. On the hunt for a long lost medieval moated Manor House, Richard oversees the trenches, digging deep for dateable evidence; Carenza persuades the entire village to get involved, and manages a hundred volunteers test pitting up and down Main Street; Stewart spearheads the search for the moat in the wider landscape; and Gus follows in Walt’s famous footsteps, marvelling at the Disney family’s medieval history, as the origins of the village get pushed further and further back. ** JOIN TIME TEAM ON PATREON! ** Support Time Team by becoming a patron and get access to exclusive behind-the-scenes content here: https://www.patreon.com/timeteamofficial ** MERCHANDISE ** You can now purchase Time Team's Official merchandise here: https://shop.timeteamdigital.com/ Website: https://www.timeteamdigital.com Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/timeteamofficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timeteamofficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/thetimeteam Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/officialtimeteam CREDITS: Presenter Dr Gus Casely-Hayford OBE The Time Team Prof. Stewart Ainsworth Jon Beaver Prof. Henry Chapman Ivan Clowsley Dr John Gater Dr Helen Geake Dr Sophie Kay Chris Leonard Prof.Carenza Lewis Penny Lock Harry Manley Dr Derek Pitman Meg Russell Naomi Sewpaul Dr Lawrence Shaw Rachael Seager Smith Hilde Van der Heul Keith Westcott Dani Wootton Site Director Richard Osgood MBE Geophysics Dr John Gater Liam Brice-Bateman Contributors Jane Bennet-Earle Sarah Chamberlin Toby Disney Chamberlin Amy Chatterton Dr Helen Coan Paul Leigh Simon Mallett Gill Page Richard Parker The Norton Disney History and Archaeology Group Suzy Watts Wings to the Past Richard De Winter James Wright Jane Young Detectorists Alan Mayes Tom Redmayne Justin Scott Tom Whittock Cameras Sam Bignell Will Fewkes Rob Goldie Steve Shearn Additional Cameras Alex McDonald Felix Rowe Ellie Utili DIT Alex McDonald Drone Steve Shearn Harry Manley Sound Steve Bowden Ed Bullman Communications and IT Mark Haworth Graphics Matt Clark Neil Emmanuel Jonathan Boakes Illustrations Neil Emmanuel Photography Harvey Mills Archive Film The Walt Disney Family Museum Production Team Barbara Alam Kirsty Arthur Hannah Darling Susan Ford Alex McDonald Anthony Sayers David Trewin Executive Liaison Anthi Kay With Thanks to Churches Conservation Trust Barbara and Barry Footitt Julia Marris Clive Moles Our Test Pit Volunteers Kate Porter John Rowland St Peter's Church Norton Disney The Community of Norton Disney The Green Man, Norton Disney Rayban/Canoe Inc Omnitapps South West Domes Robert and Pat Hemingway Hall Alex Schultz Time Team Patreon Supporters Music Paul Greedus (Original Theme) Steve Day Jas Morris Brand Manager Rebecca Mumford Production Manager Carol Hendry Location Unit Manager Kerry Ely Researcher Ellie Utili Digwatch Editor Chris Dewar Digwatch Producer Felix Rowe 2nd Unit Director Emily Boulting 3rd Unit Director Karen Kirk Editor Chris Dewar Produced and Directed by George Pagliero Executive Producer Emily Boulting Executive Producer and Series Creator Tim Taylor

I'm happy for any and all Time Team content but I'm thrilled to see a three day dig that involves an entire community. Can't wait for episodes two and three!

I’m no Happy kiddy. I can’t open the vid in the app. I’m a Paid member, it just keeps telling me that it’ll be on iTunes in 13 hours. How can I fix this?

Hannah Darling

Loved my brief cameo at the start of the test pitting, thanks Emily!

Michelle Cailes

I did try that before I messaged you. Thanks anyway. I have always logged in using my apple account. When I do so, all my account info is there; subscriptions to. However, now when I click on the video link via my logged in App - I get the message that tells me I can’t access, to log in and we need to protect our client’s integrity; not word verbatim. I would send you a screen shot, but I can’t. I messaged via Messenger, but no one has responded.

Looking at the website of St. Peter’s Church in Norton Disney I find this: "With Norman roots seen in the pillars of the north arcade, the church’s most significant features are the monuments to members of the Disney family in the century. Though Walt Disney visited the village in the 1940’s he was not a 14th direct descendant of the Disney’s of Norton Disney."

Love that Gus is presenting! He's so enthusiastic and curious.

Does anyone know if Graeme Norton is a member of the family tree? Only asking as there is a little bit of profile look alike in one of the visiting descendants (the chap who jumped in the trench on day 3). Now, that would be interesting.
