  • New excavations at Pompeii
    Feb 4 2025
    Dr Helen Geake and Martyn Williams discover Pompeii like you've never seen it before. New excavations at the site have been unearthing perfectly-preserved bathhouses, skeletons and jewellery which allow us to learn even more about life in the ancient city before it was destroyed by a volcano. Dr Sophie Hay was heavily involved in the dig and takes us through the most breathtaking discoveries.

    Also, Martyn revisits the site of an old Time Team dig in The Cotswolds where an exciting new discovery has been made. Plus, Time Team's Meg Russell tells us how archaeology is a family affair with three generations involved in the discipline and Helen answers more of your questions submitted on Patreon.

    Join us on Patreon to watch the full extended interview with Dr Sophie Hay, plus so much more bonus content and behind-the-scenes updates from Time Team. Go to patreon.com/timeteamofficial to find out more.

  • From Sutton Hoo to Byzantium: Did Anglo-Saxons fight for the Empire?
    Jan 21 2025
    Archaeologist Dr Helen Geake and co-host Martyn Williams take you to Sutton Hoo, where Time Team will be returning later this year.

    Find out more about a new theory - put forward by Dr Helen Gittos from the University of Oxford - which casts doubt on the current understanding of how opulent Byzantine treasures, found in some of the burial mounds, came to be there. Could it be that Anglo-Saxons were fighting in the Byzantine army?

    You'll also hear from the volunteers who are attempting to recreate the 27 metre-long longship which has made Sutton Hoo famous. How close are they to completing the project?

    Plus, you'll meet the Patreon volunteer who's excited to return to the Sutton Hoo site and Time Team's Derek Pitman returns with news of a brand new offering over on YouTube.
