On Day One of our recent dig in Norfolk, Derek and Lawrence caught up with Anglo-Saxon expert Helena Hamerow from Oxford University, to answer your questions.

Helena shared some fascinating insights on status and grave goods, early Anglo-Saxon Christianity, and the debate over migration and invasion following the fall of Roman Britain.

You may remember Helena from her appearance on Time Team back in Series 17, when she helped us to locate a colossal Anglo-Saxon hall at Sutton Courtenay, Oxfordshire.

Watch that episode on Time Team Classics HERE.

Watch our earlier interview with Helena discussing that episode HERE.

As always, we have lots in the pipelines and some very (and we mean VERY) exciting announcements on the horizon, so please watch this space for the next update...

Great interview. Now to look for that article in Nature.

Had the absolute thrill of a lifetime when I was able to see the latest dig at Culloden in Scotland ! What a joy the archaeologists were, and how

Irene Daly

Patiently they answered my questions. Thanks Time Team, for all the education and entertainment you have given us over the years. Long may you all reign.

Thank you Helena for answering my question, and thanks Derek and Lawrence for asking it.

Don Cook

Witnessing the jettisoning of propaganda is so refreshing... great Q&A!!!!

Priscilla Reeve

Wonderful! What a privilege to learn more from Prof Helena. She's always been one of my favourite experts. What a star! And D & L clearly agree. That old chestnut (Bede and invasion) dealt with in simple clarity.

Patricia Amero

Excellent, EXCELLENT Q&A 👏👏 Thank you to the Patrons for asking such perfect questions and thank you Helena Hamerow for sharing your amazing knowledge with us all.

More and any comparative to EU sites and origins is interesting including Byzantine coins. Movement of goods and people.

James D Speckart

This was great--please feel free to have much longer versions. There's more appetite for it than you think!

Mark Howell

Really enjoyed this! Thank you, Derek and Lawrence and those who sent in questions. And most of all, thank you, Helena, for the knowledge you shared and for being utterly charming while sharing it!
