Watching this episode was like watching a psychological thriller. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what next would be revealed in the trench. Well done!

Definitely one of the most exciting Time Teams ever. I found the end ceremony of the flowers particularly moving. A lovely touch.

Alan McMillan

Ii missed this excavation, but We'll done, Time Team!

John VanAntwerp

We love the format of this! The "less produced" format that is going what seems like a real view into how the team is making their decisions. We agree, one of the best episodes we've seen, either in the new series or the original.

Robert Finch

It was like an amazing thriller! Loved every minute of it. Well done to all involved. So sorry for the loss of Pieta Greaves and Kerry Ely may they both rest in peace 🙏

Hearing the chat amongst you all during the investigation/extraction made me feel like I was there. I'm here for the process, and this was certainly unusual & challenging. I'm grateful to have witnessed everything in so much detail, thank you, everyone. 💚 BW from Canada

Thank you, Time Team, for always exploring new ways to present. This focused and unfussy, unstaged, minimally produced episode brought viewers so much closer to the actual dig. Though it is always fun to follow the dramatic arc of an episode, this was a format that fit perfectly with the narrow scope of the excavation. And how wonderful to see Pieta Greaves whose name appeared so frequently in archaeological press before her untimely passing.

Thank you for this brilliant images. I can see so more details than in the video, excellent as it was.

Michael Taylor

Absolutely brilliant, thank you. And as a long standing supporter, I share the thrill of knowing that beautiful box would never have seen the light of day without us

Just finished the episode, and it was one of the best in years. The knowledge, the detail, the science. All came together. Also a beautiful tribute to Pieta, she will be missed.

I loved it. So thoughtful. I wish we had a such a wealth of archaeology here in Australia. 🤭 What’s the common statement? “Stains in the sand” Lucky if we get that. Thank goodness for the few rock paintings in our ancient cave sites. Yet again, Helen shone as presenter; I’d love to be able to attend one of her lectures. I apologise, but, she is by far and away the better choice than Gus. Her knowledge, along with her ability to articulate known and just learned facts (as well as her cheerful humour) keep you glued to the screen. LOL - I guess being exposed to the 3 amigos (Mick, Tony + Phil) for all those years have given her a good solid grounding, without the pretence and arrogance of learned people from many decades ago.

Great episode Thankyou...I was really interested in the amount of rock in the grave areas,.... are the graves lined with rocks under the inhumations? or is that natural bedrock they are laid onto??

Barry Jones

What q brilliant program. Helen is wonderful to watch and listen to. The way that she held herself together and explained, just how easy it would be to damage the sword and scabbard. But in her voice you could hear the excitement and the need to squeal and sherik like a little school girl. I'm so in love with her. Perhaps I see more in her explanation and conmposure, than others do. But I love listening to her talk about archoloegy especially when it's prehistory item. Long may you continue to enthrhal us.

Thoroughly enjoyed this episode of Time Team. I'm not usually a great fan of the early medieval digs, as these often result in just a few post holes and bits of bone, plus a lot of speculation. But this one was really engaging, mainly because we saw so much of the process of archaeology: the painstaking excavation, the theorising and testing, the coping with the weather, and the later laboratory-based investigations. And with not a minute spent on unnecessary introductions, establishing shots and wibbly bits of music, unlike the BBC's insipid 'Digging for Britain', which gives a completely unrealistic impression of the challenges and sheer hard work involved in archaeology. Can't imagine that programme ever making viewers feel they were there in the mud and the rain and wind alongside the team, yet still loving every minute of it!

Bill Dodds

I think I enjoy this style of time team coverage more than the three day "staged and prepared" digs. Feel more focus on the question being asked and the archaeology, and less on the "story" being told.

Robin Whitehead

Congrats to Time Team on 5 years of return. I do, however, miss the banter of Tony Robinson & Phill Harding etc. and that gave the original episodes a valued entertainment content. Having said that I became a supporter when the return happened and continue to do so. I can honestly say over the years it has been one of my favourite programs. Keep up the good work and thanks for all your work. Time Team has certainly de - mystified archaeology and put it firmly on the map.
