Seeing Phil Harding (Time Team), all dressed up in a suit, wondering when to remove his hat at the Queens garden party was extremely entertaining last weekend.

Have loved T.T for years. Even have all the books.

I missed most of TT last weekend but the bits I did see were good.  It was also good to see them trying out some new presenters especially that Neil Oliver!!!!!! ::) ::)

Of course not that anyone could replace Tony Robinson!!

Oh yes kerry, I like Neil Oliver. Used to watch him on another archaeology programme which I have forgotten the name of. Different style to our Tony but he is good.

He was on that brilliant series this year Coast.  As was Alice Roberts who was also on Time Team.  They seem to be doing the rounds.

Hi All,

l am so pleased to see that all of you agree what a wonderful show Time Team is, and that there should be more of it and others like it. l agree with Goggy l would rather watch 2 hours of the likes of Time Team than the many hours spent on Big Brother (sorry if l offend some people) but to  me that was mindless trash. Each to his or her own likes.

Those of us who live here in Australia hear so much about "who do you think you are" and l am surprised that the show has not come down under, since many of us are from the UK. Just perhaps we should all send emails to the ABC (in undate them with mail) they just might come to the party.

one can live in hope

WDYTYA seems to be such a good format and seems to be growing in popularity over here so I am surprised that other countries have not taken up the idea themselves with their own celebrities?

I first saw him on 'Two men in a trench' where they did battlefield archeology, could listen to that voice forever, beautiful!! ;)

Ommmm I know what you mean JK!!!!! ::) ::) ::)

Was the Two men in a trench series on satellite TV because it seems to have passed me by?  Someone was talking about it the other day and I'd never heard of it!

Kerry,
I think it was on BBC2 would have been back in 2002-3 I think (?), I didn't have sky at that time. I believe it is repeated on UKTV History now and again, oops that wont help you will it as you haven't got satellite  :-[
