More like this, please! So interesting.
Sarah Holloway
These informative sessions are brilliant and this is so interesting .

I wish he had his laptop on a nice stable table. Not his laptop on his lap. I feel seasick!
I am happy my friends "over the pond" in the U.K. are getting their "jabs," and getting Covid under control. It means many good things, but also that Time Team can get to work sooner. Being an American I have learned much about British History but also British terminology/phrases. It is "early days," yet but I am so excited. "Brilliant."

Very interesting conversation, particularly on the Roman frontier in the lower Rhine. Thanks to Erik and Dani.
Vincent Groenewold
Cool, thanks, I live nearby and would never have guessed something like that was there. I don't particularly assosiate the Netherlands with much excitement about history and preserving it. Probably because everything is in concrete now.

I can’t wait until Phil makes an appearance. Any appearance will do… please please please! Also Raksha, Francis, Guy, Alice, Henry, Ian, Matt, Brigid, Paul, Faye, Katie, Susannah, and of course, Sandi! Who’s gonna be the JCB operator without the chief surgeon Ian Barclay?
I thought I'd seen all of the TT episodes, but apparently not! This was a real treat and must watch again soon. (Amazing to see such a complete piece of Roman life after so many bits of pottery!)
Fascinating! Thank you.
Chris Healy
It appears that I am not allowed to view the full episode in Australia!

Really interesting catching up on the discoveries over the past 15+ years. Great content hope hear more from Eric in the future.

There is now a small monument representing a boat besides the bicycle path location. The bike path is called "Corbulo-path", coming off the "August Road" and running parallel to the "Lane of Claudius". Google Maps coordinates 52.080563 - 5.022850" (This information was provided by Sander Burger)...
Amazing stuff. This guy is engaging and personable, brilliant English language, and most of all really expert on the Roman period in that locality. Hope TMT can feature him again if possible.
