Site Wrestle (Producers): Iron Age Settlement (Patreon)

Having completed the first round of Site Wrestles with the Originals, we take a look at some sites from a slightly different perspective: the role of the Producer.

In this next selection, Series Producer Tim Taylor talks through the contenders with Development Producer Jim Mower. Their objective is marry up the two key considerations of any potential site: the archaeological research question, and the story that grips the viewer.

In his former Time Team day job, Jim had to pitch his ideas to Tim. But the tables have turned, and now it is Tim who is trying to convince Jim of the merits of each site!

First of all, they return to the Iron Age Settlement in Cornwall that has already been discussed. Does Jim share the enthusiasm of the Originals?
