The fire, the music and the wine... I think I'll go camping next week!
Charlotte Edmonds
It's a good demonstration of typical British weather!
deadmanjones
Thank you!

The weather looked very changeable - one minute brilliant sunshine then overcast, then sunshine etc. Were all the shots filmed on the same day ?
Gareth Hayes
The data from most UK archaeological work is uploaded to the Archaeology Data Service - they ensure that the data deposited with them is maintained in up-to-date formats.
Andy Quick
Yes, I found that story of Mick growing seeds from Roman digs incredible. Even if they were from a medieval site, it would be amazing. Can any biologists out there comment?
Patricia Amero
🥰 golden... Thank you, Steve 🙏
Doug Mackey
Lovely. The camaraderie brought a tear to my eye. Never met them. Love them all.
Connie L Merchant
That's a good-looking Time Team shirt Dani is wearing. I enjoy wearing the one I bought. It's a quality item.
Leanne
Hoping for a special 'Dig Watch' with highlights from the end of day celebration!

John Gater: "Yeah, but it's gonna be worth it...." [do you reckon?] "Yeah, I mean, you can see, we've got the settlement, and, I mean, we need to find out where they were drinking!"
Lori Benton
Thank you!
Ceryswyn
That moment with John Gater is hilarious! Really enjoyed learning what cleaning a trench means, somehow I've never picked that up before, appreciate the insight. What a fab atmosphere at the end of the night. Time Team magic right there.
Tom Gooden
Love it !
Mats Frånlund
Oh, that backdrop of Corfe Castle is mesmerizing! This was a really good teaser and made me try to find the dig field on Google maps. Would love to visit the area.
DIANA R NELSON
I love these behind the scenes looks at the digs.
M.F. McCune
Adam who? What's his role?
Peter Gore
Could explain his taste in jumpers! (Bless him..)

Banter is always good 👍 here's Mick's take on how useful a tool red wine is 😁😁
Peter Gore
Tongue in cheek comment.. Happy to be corrected! Keep up the good work!
Steve Shearn
Just as we did in the first 20 years we fund our own after work beverages. We all want your money to be spent wisely on the archaeology and the programme. I'm always very conscious of exactly where our new lease of life has come from. Thank you all 😁👍😁
Mika
Oh Derek can have a glass of wine on my Patreon subscription no problem! Especially if it helps him recovering from the Greek floods (is there any info on the situation on the site and in the surrounding communities?)
Peter Gore
Just wondering on how the Patreon money is split between archaeology and red wine....
David & Ruth Samuels
These DigWatches are fantastic! We get real insight into the processes and the technology — and we’re privileged to be able to join a great cast of characters, thanks to Dani’s lively chats with these lovely and enthusiastic people.
Mark Lund
TT is definitly getting it's own, new feel to it, headed up, in these clips, by Derek,Lawrence & Dani, with the other characters fitting in. Looks like a great site too, as a bonus!
David J. McGlone
awesome, i can't wait to see the actual programs.
Kerry Hennigan
the 3D modeling is just a wonderful part of the new Time Team shows and specials. It really helps the viewer understand a site.
Bron Lloyd
You are going to love being a Patreon! Thanks for joining us.
Bron Lloyd
Great Dig Watch! And as a folkie, so good to see that little session at the end with Tim playing!
Michael Everett
I’ve got a good feeling that this might be the best of the new series that’s been done so far 👍😊
Time Team
The castle ruin in the background is Corfe Castle
Time Team
We'll be sharing the flag very soon. Watch this space.
David Boon
A great update by Dani. Sounds like an amazing site.
David Boon
I don’t recall it being released so hoping that will be in a not too distant update.
Lori Benton
My first BTS videos as a patreon supporter. Great to see it all. And I'm very interested in the late Iron Age. Can't wait to see what you all have found.
Emily Flotilla
I heard! How cool!
Emily Flotilla
I can't wait for this episode! Thanks for the sneak preview. I'm excited to see the flag! I missed getting my permission on the first one, but made sure to get it in for this one. Is there somewhere I can see a photo of it to find my name? Congratulations to Tim and Team on 30 Years!
Joanne Kellam
Nicely done, Dani! Can’t wait to see the final program. Great to see Miles back on Time Team!
Peg Warnock
Dani read my name on the flag!!! 😊
Paula Holter-Mehren
Excellent job, I’m ready to see the final version now. Like in 5 minutes from now, please!
Alan Murdock
It was a lot easier to find my name on the flag when there were only several thousand of us, I haven't been able to find it for the last couple years.
Rachelle Gates
Happy birthday Time Team can’t wait to see all the discoveries. Thank you all for your hard work.
Danny Skarka
How do you know the data you are saving digitally will be readable in 20 years and longer?
Bede Browne
Good morning, someone sent a reply to a question I asked about the castle. I thought I would wait till I had seen the dig but when I went looking for the reply, I could not find it. Thanks to that person & meantime I'll keep looking.
Cheryl Kurucz
Oh boy I’m excited to see the final product of this gig! It looks good and exciting. I love the behind the scenes!!!!
Vickie Betts
Was the picture of the 2023 flag released & I missed it? Was fun finding my name on the previous 2 flags, would like to see if I can find myself on the 2023 flag!
Patricia Amero
Such a well-oiled machine, Time Team at it's absolute BEST.
Leitchy
Wonderful stuff. Well done, Dani. Can't wait for next month's TT News.
J. Andrew Lockhart
Hey, while she was talking about the flag I paused it and found my own name!! Cool
Andy Gabriel-Powell
Just has such a feelgood factor about it. Archaeologists work hard, play hard. But what a buzz!
deadmanjones
I'd love to give an intelligent archaeological related comment but... Is there a rainbow tinted/metallic time Team logo T-Shirt I've missed? #ShutUpAndTakeMyMoney
Rita Baker
Good to see Adam is again part of the team.
Julianne Ture
So fun to see that Stewart and John haven’t changed at all! Happy birthday, Time Team!
Ann H
Sprouting archaeological seeds! Too bad they can't be shipped across borders of I would try it. Wonder what the germination rate would be?
Kay Theriault
Great music and some interesting tidbits to whet the curiosity and appetite for archaeology! Dani's doing a brilliant job with Dig Watch!
Pamela Brotherton
Can't wait to see what you have found! Love the behind the scenes activities. You can feel the excitement.
Neil Ford

Fingers crossed for the weather on day three!🤞🤞🤞
Paul Sandom
Another brilliant dig watch. Really enjoying these, keep it up.
Bob Pockney
And Tim on guitar, perfect.
Julie Ball
And my question tomorrow for the team would be are there any headaches! And what is John’s favourite real ale?
Julie Ball
Another fab taster. It’s been a good weekend to be out and about in history.
Julian Elcock
As a Wolves fan I could go off John now!!! Looks like a great site!
Mark GB
Yay, I got picked out on the flag :)
James D Speckart
Really nice job on these dig watches, and the site seems like it was made for Time Team. I can't wait to learn more.
Jon Colcord
Loving it again! Keep it coming!
Adrian Murphy
Dig Watch behind-the-scenes adds a whole new level to my enjoyment of Time Team. Keep it coming!
