John Matthew IV

This is great. Are you going to make him dress up again like in the old series?

Carl Thorpe

Great news :) I look forward to hopefully meeting him once again :)

Kevin A.

Woo Hoo! Matt is one of our favourites!

Juliet Bhangu

Great! I hope you’ll make sure he’s 4 feet down in a trench!

Beth

YES!!! Now if you can just persuade Phil to come back . . . have you tried leaving a trail of interesting flint tools to lure him in?

Charlotte Goodwin

Yay! I loved when you made Matt do little projects on the side, like being a monk, or a Roman soldier

Emma R

This is amazing news. Thank you Matt!

Terri

Way to go team!!! Matt, we look forward to seeing you again. It wouldn't be Time Team without you and your great personality. You are such a good sport and you have great intuition.

John DuSomme

Awesome. So glad to see Matt coming back. Will there be another ‘Matt gets naked in the name of history’ episode. Hahahahha

Robert Boudreau

This is great news! Besides being good-natured and easy-going, Matt is an experienced and talented archaeologist. He's a huge asset to the Team, then and now.

Penny Screech

Fantastic! Welcome back Matt! 👍

Carole Cox

Wonderful! He was such a strong member!

Aislin

Yay Matt!! Fantastic news!

Robert Wise

Yahoo! That’s great news! Interesting. Intelligent and knowledgeable, Matt is also a great sport … with a far better shovel and brush than Phil’s … (Time Team S17-E05 Sutton Courtenay). Thank you Matt!

Massive addition to the team. Fantastic !

I couldn’t comment when I saw the email heading but I gave an audible cheer. Now if only we can have Phil & Raksha back some how for at least a cameo on the digs, that would be amazing. Getting the band back together ☮️💟

Excellent! Really enjoyed Matt’s take on working with the bucket digger and Ian and the trench perspective like “the feel of the trowel” and “the sound of the bucket”.
