It's always fun having a new toy to play with, so we let John Gater loose with a 360 camera! 

Here he is exploring Britain's largest tombolo - a narrow strip of sand connecting St Ninian's Isle to mainland Shetland. (Look out for our producer, Karen, in the background!)

While watching the video on a computer click and drag using the mouse or tracker pad: up, down, left and right to get a full 360-degree view in real time! You can also zoom in or out.

Depending on your connection speed, you may need to adjust the video quality by clicking on the cog icon at the bottom of the YouTube window.

If using a phone or other mobile device, it should work by simply rotating the screen.

You'll be seeing more of the 360-cam on upcoming digs, so please let us know what you think!

I've been hoping we could actually see the digs on the island .

Carrie S

Well that was fun!

James Lee-Pevenhull

Brings to mind German airplane, seagulls, umbrella, Sean Connery.

Jen Harris

What an amazingly beautiful beach and scenery.

Andy Woodhead

This is great! To get it to work on my iPad from the Patreon page. I had to click on the ‘share’ button at the top right of the video and then on the 3 dots icon and this played the video on YouTube and it worked by rotating the screen - hope this helps.

Super cool piece of tec .Wonderful. That was stunning @ 4K John @ TT

John Gater has been like a kid in a candy shop with the return of the new Time Team. Kudos to him, his joy and expertise.

Evelyn G Kimbrell

He was having so much fun with it, even though you could tell his hands were freezing.

Leanne

This is great! I did have an issue when I had it in full screen as the top banner would cover the up arrow, so had to get out of full screen to use it. Thanks for the experience! Gorgeous area.

Ivan Clowsley

Excellent loved the music too. The first piece was The Pogues, I’m a man you don’t meet everyday, was it not?

Patricia Amero

Thanks Andy, it worked a charm! Every day is a school day for me & tech.

Eggs Ackley

Now that John is an expert with the 360 cam, let him use it in the next pub scene (keeping one hand free for his beer, of course). 📹🍺

Patricia Amero

Very cool. I expect to see John walking back & forth in the fields with a GoPro stick duct taped to his head... that in itself is worth the cost of admission. 😁👍 love it, thanks John.

I'm only forced to wonder, how did John get hold of this toy before Stewart? This seems like a Stewart thing!

Marcus Lindström

This is amazing. I am guessing this is already in use in archeology sites? I wonder why this isn't more common due to getting a whole different experience being able to look around. Great to use for maybe historical sites or sites that may be off limit due to safety concern etc! Or just to record places before they are lost to something like sites that suffer from corrosion. A whole different experience comparing to just images or 3D made areas!

Clive James

Love the interactivity and the fact that John still has issues with technology after all this time!

SallyMum

Terrific...and I learned a new word-always a good thing, even @ 82!

IngiDraws

Great! 👍 Embrace the tech ❤️🙏❤️

Bede Browne

A man you don't meet every day, excellent back-ground music for John & the video. I think with time & practice this new bit of tech will be mastered both by John & the viewer. Good stuff.

Edwin Elliott

He looks cold but still our good old John, going strong. Neat technology. Just like being there.

Cheryl Kurucz

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Derek Thom

BBC "walks" use 4k with a crisper image and maybe you could use a mini windsock on the mic when sound is important. Otherwise a very useful addition to output. Keep experimenting.

Andy Quick

Nice. You could even look up at the sky, or at the ground :-).

Trust John to get his hand on the tech first, just make sure he doesn't turn any filters off, we have seen him turn of the Roman filter when doing the survey

CalicoCate

That was fun! What does the device look like? I could tell from the shadow that it was a stick with a bulbous top point. Was there a bulb(sensor) on the bottom, too? It was interesting that the device, (plus computer imager) took itself out of the picture. If you look at John's hands, he looks like he is holding something, but there is nothing there. Thanks for sharing.

Spud Man

That's so cool

Jill Desruisseau

Super cool technology. The company I work for is testing these now for large equipment performance tests. I love Karen trying to lurk out of sight. :)

Karen Kirk

Hi Jill - it was so much fun but hard to hide 😆 Karen x

Octavia Gentemann-Schmidt

wow! love this! amazing, that you can see the shadow of a stick, but it is not recording "itself" .. so the stick. what a view! thank you for this.

Wendy

This is amazing 👏 🙌

Wendy

Ewan Maclennan does a beautiful cover of this and so many other similar tunes
