I note from Tony Robinson's letter on the Unofficial Tony Robinson Website (see the Tony Robinson Website thread, that:

A box set of Time Team DVDs will be on sale in the new year and that he's also been filming some bits and pieces to go with that, as well as a Time Team documentary in Lincoln.

Next years Time Team series which will be transmitted from January onwards. Also, It looks as though there'll be another week of Time Team Live on Channel 4 in July.

I'm looking forward to it already

not be giving too much away by saying might be changed due to C5 getting the cricket coverage yesterday.

I thought it was Sky that was getting the cricket - or was that only the Test Matches?

Not that I'm particularly interested who shows it - but its moving could make things a lot easier for TT viewers, I imagine.

Not until 2006, and Ch5 will be showing early evening highlights.

So is it still on Channel 4 this summer? In which case, why are we talking about it....?

G'day Bruce. RUle one everyones name is BRuce. DOes anyone remember that monty p sketch.

sORRY bRUCE Hope you have a happy yule.

Looking forward to TimeTeam in the New Year with extra interest.

THe cRicket change is not til 2006 i think. Channel 5 will be doing a highlights programme each evening but not live stuff.

apologies i didnt read the earlier thread. would be nice to know which periods etc are covered?
anything on the environment in the quaternary? my current interests are covered by the reading list - so anything similiar to Star Carr for the mesolithic, creswellian cave dwellers, neolithic farmers,romano-british villages and town life etc

Plenty of local interest stuff for Silurians again then.

Gloucestershire not close enough to Wales?

If I cant see it from the roof of my main hall its too far away.

Where was Siluria, again...?

Ultima Thule. In the Middle Ages, the place where maps said 'here be dragons'.
