Meet the Crew: Mick the Dig

William Seabrook

First thing that came up on my screen was a pic of what TV folk call "color bars", i.e. a tool for testing color accuracy in a TV signal. But, what immediately popped into my head ?! . . . that it was a closeup of Mick Aston's vertical-striped jumper. ;-D RIP Mick!

Daniel Rowley

Time Team

Hi Kristna, thanks for the feedback – we're taking everything on board! This is just a small snapshot of what's still to come... there's a wide range of content on the way across the various levels. This will include extended interviews and many flowing conversational pieces, alongside some more visual step-by-step examples of techniques and processes from our experts in the field. Where possible we hope to cater for various different ways people like to watch/listen. We're looking into some other options for those who enjoy listening like the radio, so please do watch this space! Best wishes from all the team.

Please do axe the music during the interview and please have the questions spoken. If you happen to look away from the screen at the wrong moment you don't know what the question was (I can't be the only person who multitasks while watching Time Team over and over - and now these extra tidbits! But I'm still not going to sit and stare at the screen when the content is almost entirely audio). And it feels better as a conversation!

love the show use to watch it as a teenager in the 90s and rediscovered it during covid lock downs and been binge watching it ever since really hope for a new show but am happy to watch extra content through patreon

Time Team

Thanks John, it's been noted and removed from upcoming 'Meet the Crew' segments for your listening pleasure! We're working on a range of different formats, including more in-depth interviews and conversations between the wider team, so please keep a look out for more anecdotes and insights coming soon...

Get rid of the horrible "music" - it is a distraction from the very interesting content. And it would be nice to hear the questions, rather than have to read them.

Mick, How much do you miss British beer ?

I agree about losing the 1980s video game music, it brings nothing to the video.

Enjoying the interviews with the crew! Can I make a couple suggestions? I like it when we can hear the interviewer asking the questions (as opposed to reading the question as text inbetween answers). Could do without the music in the background. Looking forward to more of these! So excited!
