Time team was one of the best things on TV for many years so it is great to see it continue ( I am a supporter/subscriber on their Patreon site), and especially nice to see my friend and AGRA colleague Sophie Kay featured as their genealogy adviser..

Anthony, I too am a supporter/subscriber.
It's great to see so many of the 'old guard' still doing what they love. My favourite discipline (if that's what I can call it) is what Stuart Ainsworth brings to the search, by looking at the local topography and working out the lay of the land by features, old maps and local knowledge etc.

Thanks for the notification. I was an avid viewer back in the early years. I have not seen the commentator before - seems a pleasant chap but as with most people speaking English the end of his sentences tail off and I'm guessing at probable words.

I think Gus speaks very clearly and completes his sentences. There is also an option to put subtitles on. Mine came on automatically.
Enjoy!

Thank you.
Years ago there was a TV programme that demonstrated with a cloth how some old ears receive sound. Now that I'm in my dotage I find that I have difficulty with my sight (reading tiny words at bottom of a TV screen) and also with my hearing, especially low modulated voices whether male or female. I think my neighbours might come knocking if there was only a thin dividing wall between my TV and their home. lol
