Yuletide Time Team: Dig the Halls (Patreon)

Firstly, apologies for the awful Christmas pun (maybe 'Dig the Holes' would have made more sense). But if you think you can do better with your Christmassy archaeological quips – and it shouldn't be too hard! – then please share your suggestions in the comments below.

In this relaxed and wide-ranging chat, Dani Wootton and Naomi Sewpaul get festive, covering everything from reindeer archaeology and Neolithic mince pies to the Ancient Roman winter festival of Saturnalia.

Special thanks to our 3D whizz Matt Clark for his fantastic Time Team snow globe.

If you'd like to make your own Neolithic mince pies, check out English Heritage's recipe right here:

Merry Christmas from us all!
