why isn't phil harding in the new time team

I enjoy watching this program on my computer(I never knew about it 10 years ago because we have so many garbage programs here on US television, they did not show it here.). Instead Time Teams format was radically overhauled. At the time, Taylor said that things were being done to ensure Aston stayed on, adding 'youve not heard the last of Mick on Time Team. In between programmes, E4 these days uses short clips of things like hillwalking and narrow boats to ridicule the interests of old people. Relatives, jobs, social network profiles - Radaris people search engine. and use my iPad to follow through my own enquirers. Now the format was safely established the programme was increasingly able to capitalise on its fame and access big name sites ultimately even Buckingham Palace. Time Team is shown in the U.S. on the History Channel as "History Explorer" or something like that. It makes me want to poke nyy head in and see the Geophys, operate the diggers to open a trench and pick up a trowel and start digging! Thank you Time Team for all those wonderful hours of thoroughly enjoyable entertainment. Save Time Team Campaign is taking off really fast now, over 1,500 signatures & support from celebrity. I am sooooo sorry the series is over. Interested in keeping up to date with the latest archaeological finds across Britain? While filming Timesigns, Tim and Mick regularly discussed other ways to bring archaeology to a television audience. Sadly, this was not the case. There may be mosaics, a bathhouse and perhaps even temples. What a shame to see it go, but what a swan song. Just heard about the axing of Time Team what a shame! Image: Wessex Archaeology. I agree the lady they brought in for Series 19 was disappointing and that it does show how far C4 has come in the last 20 years. I also never felt patronised by Tony Robinson, and loved the way he frequently asked questions that the audience would have wanted to know themselves. What idiot made this particular decision to cancel such an interesting and educational series! I cannot understand why you are axing it!!? I found her to be frightening and tedious at the same time, and to this day I fast forward through the segments where she is featured. And that the wild-haired, wild-bearded Mick Aston would be at the centre of the ill feeling was also somewhat unexpected. In 2011 the production centre for the programme moved from London to Cardiff. Time Team was the best program I have ever seen or hope to see. If they wont reinstate Time Team ,then why not release All episodes in a DVD BOX set . Sad that time team is no longer , they should go back to how it all started , dont mess with what is ok . It is to the Channels credit that it did this despite much of that outlay being channelled into post-excavation work that never appeared onscreen. Incidentally, Mr Harding, this flygirl will gladly buy you a pint, any day and would love to hear stories about years of pulling history out of the ground one piece, one bone, and one shard at a time. RESURRECT THE PAST! I too have enjoyed Time Team and am amazed that it has been scrapped. I note that none of them ever received a gong. The big step-change in output came between series 5 and 6 in 1998 and 1999 when the annual number of episodes leapt from 8 to 13. An episode where a workplace expert was on stand by for structural shoring when common sense would have not wasted this kind of expense. He learned flint-knapping from his uncle, Fred, and in only a few months became a skilled knapper, crafting many different hunting tools from pieces of flint. Having the great pleasure to work in the UK for an Engineering firm, I was able to watch the early years of this program, up to the end. The key participants deserve a rest at their age, and the joy obviously just wasnt there. I so agree. Prof Aston was on long-running show for 19 . We shall mourn the loss of TT in Australia, although the episodes arrive on our screens years after they are made, which means well be watching them long after the series ends were still with the old format so I cant comment on the new look TT. C4, please bring back the previous and successful formatting of Time Team. Like Paul said (June 23 comment) you wished you could join them in the pub at the end for a beer . Ridiculous. It is the programme really. I have always wondered what happens to all the dirt that the Time Team dig out of their sites after the 3 days of digging? We didnt do much history at school and we have all learned so much from TT. A brilliant series has been lost to the older viewer. TT changed how history programmes are made for UK TV for ever.

Ive loved Time Team since day one, but recently Ive found it becoming a little too cozy. Surely this cant really be the end?? This is in no doubt as a direct result of the post production. The late Robin Bush brought a degree of historical expertise that would be missed almost as much as the man himself following his departure in 2003. Its all happening ere Tony. Watching how the team coalesce over time and their skills mature. Francis Pryor and Phil Harding filming a classic episode at Brancaster (Photo: Time Team Digital) It appears that the programme has unexpected healing properties. From the mid-1970s, he worked on excavations in Berkshire, Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire and the Isle of Wight for the Department of the Environment (DOE). age is no barrier in archaeology and many of us dont start until our 40s and 50s. with the Amazonian co-presenter with the huge bonded teeth. UCL is pleased to announce that Mr Phil Harding has accepted the post of Director of Finance & Business Affairs. Not all of us want mindless reality TV that costs a few bob to present. John has kept on top of technical advances, and the results of his survey of Brancaster Roman fort provide one of the outstanding moments in the forthcoming season 20. But archaeology is now a subject that tens of thousands of people enjoy and value, and this is almost solely down to him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVRe_gMtXNo, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Time_Team_episodes, I Have Fallen In Love With Land Rover Freelander! After a career as a professional geologist I researched for a PhD at the Palace of Knossos on Crete. Thank you all for giving us years of delight and thank God for DVDs. His role translating archaeology into laymens terms was pure genius. How amazing to see the history of England being unearthed. Stopping TT is just another step in the dumbing down of TV and radio. If Id been younger when the programme first started I would have loved to have studied archaeology to work in such a fascinating area, I had little knowledge of or interest in archaeology before. He appeared in an episode of BBC's Digging for Britain in December 2016. I guess the nearest feeling to learning of its ending was like being told that your solid mates of the past twenty years are all splitting up and moving abroad. He became a familiar face on the Channel 4 television series Time Team . Raphael, you cant have the old cast back. Led by the inspirational Professor Mick Aston and featuring immediately recognisable figures like Phil Harding and Tony Robinson, the show evaluated hundreds of sites over the course of 20 series, several live shows, and countless specials, helping hugely to popularise the field of archaeology before it finally drew to an end in 2013 (see CA 274). Were currently watching the last episodes, with the delightfully enthusiastic Francis Pryor, on ABC TV in Melbourne, and we love em, even if there arent always lots of finds. Time Team To Be Reinstated! Sad to hear the show is coming to an end but hopefully repeat episodes will frequent our screens for a long time to come. The two new presenters just did not fit. Tony was very good at being the non-archeologist and I salute him! 20 years is a long time in television. I agree Shiela, a long read but entertaining, and an indication of TTs popularity. During that time he deduced the towns Medieval layout. Its amazing. Self - Local Expert 1 episode, . Gee I feel gutted. It has an extra-long handle and additional reinforcement so that he has better leverage when moving loads of earth. He worked his sox off. We also miss Stuart very much. Fabulous, thank you. TV & life not the same as early 1990s but I think the format is still sound (just dont turn it into on old OU prog). Have only just found out that Time Team has been axed after 20 years and I am gutted. With its awkwardly embarassing reality programming and multitude of dream come true talent shows American television is NOTHING to emulate. RIP MICK ASTON. I cannot believe that there will be no more Time Team, I hope the idiots at channel 4 read this site. Born 1957. Although I partly agree with Geoff Stelling regarding both the departure of Mick and sidelining Phil somewhat, I do think that the young archaeologists in this the last series show a great deal of promise (Jimmy, Tracey, Susannah, for example) and we are being unfair to their input to be so critical. If an episode costs 200,000 and average 1.5 million viewers, would 1 million be willing to pay 20p via mobile phone or subscription towards making it, or 400,000 willing to pay 50p per episode? A known anthropologist and archeologist ( Emmanuel College, Cambridge ), to describe and dismiss her as a former model is a bit unfair. There can be little doubt that part of the shows early success stems from the audience warming to the groups genuine passion for teasing out the past. The thrill of time running out also engaged viewers, and Time Teams popularity was rewarded with increasingly longer series. certainly helped to fill a lot of university places, even if many of those gaining degrees have gone on to other careers. Its an opportunity to find new voices and should help launch a new generation of archaeologists, under the guidance and watchful eye of Mr Taylor! Thank you channel 4 Thank you very very much . Will miss them! Carenzas missing as is Helen, I see Mick walked out as I also presume Stewart has too. We will suffer forever without the seasonal hours of archaeology, in all its forms. Perhaps the BBC could take over where Channel 4 has failed and get back to grass roots like in series 4-6. And as for the Ooh.. Ah, that be cer monial, that be in the dialect of a village idiot just about summed up the whole package. But, as always with Time Team, the adventure is in the discovery of the secrets of the past, whatever they are!, Landowner Martin Fiennes a cousin of actors Ralph and Joseph Fiennes, and explorer Sir Ranulph says: Were delighted to welcome Time Team to Broughton. Robinson - by then Sir Tony Robinson - paid a most touching tribute to him. And there is much yet to dig and poke at historically in the world, let alone Great Britain. Enjoyed Tony and the whole crew, felt like u were part of the dig and part of the crew, they were all like family. The foregoing is an exhausting but entertaining read. What is the matter not retro enough for you ! Im tired of the idiots that run TV and Im ready for revolution.whos with me!!! As Mick Aston observed the geophys and Time Team have always gone hand in hand. I am not sure who set it up, but you can find it by searching for Time Team FB page. Just watched the first instalment of Time Team America (H2,Thursdays,9pm). Trained on excavations with the Bristol University Extra Mural Department and other bodies from 1966, he has been a professional archaeologist since 1971. The comment by Peter Thomas is excellent and is a very eloquent summation. Im sure it was meant to interest younger viewers in Archeology, a noble enough concept. I have been in awe of the items the team dig up and the re-constructions. I watch any that come on now.. saw one yesterday about the digging our of the 2 world war planes in the bogs.. I am sure the essence of archeology would be attractive to a core audience once again. You talk rubbish mate! Im sorry no-ones put in a word for the lovely Raksha always good-natured, hard working and incredibly knowledgeable. It was this show that gave me the inspiration to study history and I will really miss it. A group of archaeologists have 3 days to discover historical artifacts in different sites around Britain. I enjoy his style of presentation. Well said, Paul! Lytham St Annes. I wonder if some young Channel 4 TV executive is proud of his/her decisions. That executive was not recruited from the intellectual highbrow Channel 5 was he? Perhaps if TT had included a Big Brother style segment of drunken, debauched university students or only dug up the gardens of minor celebrity reality tv show contestants theyd still be on the air. BBCs own channels will have BBC prefixing the number and anything not by the BBC will obviously by without this prefix. I have watched the episode from Barra several times. Thank you to all of Time Team for 20 wonderful years. Reason: we hardly spoke to each other and what we were watching on tv was hardly worthwhile. Perhaps one of the other channels will see the folly of C4s ways and pick up the program before its too late? Maybe it was better to end the show before they replaced the entire cast with celebrities from TOWIE. Research digs usually ran for weeks if not months, and it was questioned whether anything approaching responsible archaeology could be achieved in a mere three days. - The most complained about X Factor moments - The Forgotten presenters of Top Gear Boy, 15, is convicted of murdering software engineer who was stabbed in the chest after a row at an Asda supermarket. It may be in fifteen or so years a new Time Team will go digging in the archives of the defunct Channel 4 to explain how with the audience Channel 4 had for an entertaining and informative programme Which bright go ahead executive (IDIOT) came up with the Idea, if its not broken we must fix it. I was especially interested in the programme on Looe Island chapel as my grandparents once owned Looe Island and I had been there and walked over the chapel remains. I regularly tape the programmes as it is shown on a variety of stations, history,yesterday, and channel 4 being some. This programme could have run and run with the younger people such as Helen Geake, Brigid, Matt and Raksha taking it into the next 20 years. I have watched Time Team for years as has my son and many many friends. It was supposed to be about archaeology. Rip, time team. He was an inspiration to me and to so many others. His mission was sharing his passion for archaeology with ordinary people rather than keeping its secrets locked away behind the walls of Britains universities. Obliged to cut evaluation trenches to meet the deadlines of multi-million pound construction projects, the 1990s saw a surge in short-term excavation projects. His technique fostered a sense of immediacy for viewers, placing them on the trench edge when discoveries happened and making them privy to key discussions. Born Philip Harding on 25th January, 1950 in Oxford, England, he is famous for Time Team in a career that spans 1971-Present. Yes/No? The programme has no need for eye candy, no need to try to attract yuppies: archaeology is like genealogy interest grows (although not exclusively) with age. It may also be heresy to say so, but I think many people who were interested more in the archaeology than the banter, found the relationship between Phil and Tony, to be past its sell by date. I saw the same program, Justin, and I agree entirely! well done on ending one of the best programs on tele. I have been binge watching on YouTube whilst laid up with a medical issue. document.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value", ( new Date() ).getTime() ); We are largest Know-How Listing website, total [total_posts] questions already asked and get answers instantly! Little surprise she became a history teacher. In addition, he has appeared in episodes of Meet the Ancestors (2003) and Chris Moyles' Quiz Night (2009). Looky tha! For me, as a genealogist, an episode really takes flight when, in addition to the dig, Robin Bush, or Guy D., or Carenza bring out a mediaeval charter, the Domesday Book, or the A.S. With only some strange earthworks exciting the curiosity of local amateur archaeologists to go on, the programme was flexible enough to be able to take a gamble. Much better than most of the rubbish we get now that there are so many channels chasing adverts & broadcasting ever increasing repeats. Oh dear what a shame as its such a great program especially with Phil & ALL the team.I think their sense of humour is almost worth a show on its own.Anyway a big thank you for many interesting hours as a an armchair archeologist. I wonder if channel 4 realise how far T.Ts popularity stretches and how informative it is for all ages. anyone want to correspond about this i would like for them to write me. Time Team! Speaking to Express.co.uk, Tony said he won't be. Possibly my favourite television programme. Archaeologist Phil Harding has paid tribute to his Time Team colleague Mick Aston who has died at the age of 66. A few years earlier Tony Robinson had joined a trip Mick was leading to Santorini as part of his adult education work for Bristol University. Time Team brought so much into my life, being bed ridden, television being a large part of my life now. C4 have put money into British Archaeology, when no one else could or would presumably, and as has been pointed out, much of that money went into post excavation work, which although not good TV is absolutely vital as far as each site is concerned. Sadly, my wife passed away in January 2012 but I carried on watching it until it ended. Tony was constantly disagreeing with the archaeologists, and for some unexplained reason there was loud ballet music all but obliterating the commentary. Phil had never sought or anticipated recognition for his public service and this was a family first. Im sorry to see that TT is folding though. While viewing it might be a bittersweet experience we should enjoy the moment while we can. I have told so many people about Time Team & my grand daughter has been trying to decide should she be an archaeologist or a geologist because of it. Apart from the marvellous people who made up the Time Team over the years, the way they used the magic of television to highlight features of the dig, overlay geophys visualisations onto the site, extend a fragment of a pot into a full representation, and so on, made this program an exemplar of how to produce truly educational television; and the way the passion of the Team members and their expertise was allowed to shine, coupled with a witty front man, showed that educational does not have to mean dull or dumbed down. So apart from discovering the female cleavage (along with Kleenex tissues) looking for Saxon pottery designed to hold bovine waste, expanding your knowledge of Saxon tea services as well as teaching both Vivian Westwood and Tony & Guy a thing or twowhat other skills have you learned since watching Time Team? Jim describes this miscalculation as a death blow, which cost the show almost all of its behind the scenes staff. That a pile of random rubble is a wall, a stain in the ground is a ditch and Tony Robinson is a supercilious pot bellied bore. Phew! Sir Tony I salute you and the team,its been a good innings! Will you still be able to buy Godiva chocolate? It is located on the Broughton Estate in Oxfordshire, belonging to the Fiennes family. After Harding left school, he worked in a puppet factory in Marlborough until he became a full-time archaeologist in 1971. RIP Time Team. swinging camera booms. Without time team on the television the world of tv is going to be a poorer place. I for one will not watch any new episodes. And we have just recently lost Mick Aston, the Rock of Gibraltar of the show. Whats wrong with a passing reference to global warming unless you are an eccentric climate change denier? Right now, there's no reason for Guardiola not to select him in the starting XI, though. I feel sure we havent heard the last either. Whichever fool(s) cut it, perhaps they are now also, goneso please bring Time Team back it was a great staple! Have to admit they are probably the main reason I now spend a lot of my spare time out on the Thames foreshore with the Thames Discovery Programme- enjoying it hugely, and probably have them to thank, they showed us that anyone can get involved. Are any available at the moment does anyone know? Time Team: Created by Tim Taylor. The show ran on the chemistry among the original team, and failed to work as they left or lost interest. Couldnt agree more. The team also included the likes of surveyors Stewart Ainsworth and Henry Chapman, illustrator Victor Ambrus, and fellow archaeologists Helen Geake and Phil Harding, and gradually the show began to grow its following, introducing a whole new audience to archaeology. Interesting, in these days where we (oldies) are not responding to adverts as much as the supposed young and affluent to think of alternative crowd-sourcing models for financing programs that we like. I agree entirely. I think the only things we didnt like so much were the cleavage shots and the daft re-enactments. You wonder what kind of palsy comes over TV programers when they occasionally axe the best shows, shows with strong, solid substance!!! very sad day in T V HISTORY. Ive learned that anything classed as experimental Is just filler as theyve found nothing. - The most complained about X Factor moments- The Forgotten presenters of Top Gear- 10 films that really got science wrong. Channel 4s choices are definitely a bit strange to many of us. Having said that, I hope this means Time Team DVDs will now be more available to those of us in the US who adore the show. He also took part in the various spin-off series such as Time Team Extra (1998), Time Team Digs (2002) and Time Team Live. will take time, i was successfull on a Campaign on another show before so i know what i have to do, The Campaign is to have a new lease of life on another tv channel. Desperate for a good documentary to watch over a late dinner, I discovered Tony Robinsons Time Team special on the Mesolithic and Doggerland. Immediately, I was hooked. Find Phil Harding's phone number, address, and email on Spokeo, the leading people search directory for contact information and public records. Strata indeed! Its the best show! The past shows took it for granted that the viewers were intelligent and did not need someone (other than Tony I love him) to ask questions in his humorous fashion. and I just came across the time team on my tablet in November 2019. The message was simple: this is local archaeology, it is your archaeology. I still watch the series on U-tube. 19891997, Who is Matt Williams wife?Erika Monroe Williamsm. Just a thought/ John. Theyd first met during an ABC TV interview in September 2017. The dig has only found old bits of pipe and 1950s china, but it really does not matter, what matters is the program has inspired my children. Time Team turned this particular builder into a complete archaeological anorak and made one increasingly curmudgeonly old fart in a sweat stain hat the one person in the world Id most love to meet, hang out on a dig with and sink real ales with thereafter! I speculate that Mr Bushs rant is based upon nothing more than jealousy over the fact that Mr Harding has obviously learned one more word than him whilst digging those big holes! very sad. will take it on. It was over when Mick went AWOL. Trained on excavations with the Bristol University Extra Mural Department and other bodies from 1966, he has been a [] RIP Time Team. I think weve brought it into the forefront of peoples attention. We are shocked to read that Time Team is finished. Phil received the MBE in the Queen's 80th Birthday Honours list in 2006 in recognition of his sustainable development and climate change work in the South West region. Please, please would someone bring the show back, This is just another example of Managements old adage: Its perfect; lets New and Improve it Tony, Mick,and Phil will be missed. Yes TR can be intensely irritating at times, but as the years have gone by I think his appreciation of the experts has increased and they have learned skills from him about presentation. I dont think a Presenter is supposed to be a devils advocate. Like others I would like to see somebody else either bringing it back or developing the format. Id say it was as his programmes/stories Time Team were canceled by BBC (see the websites: Channel 4 Time Team and Time Team: the rise and fall of a television phenomenon). Sir Tony Robinson, who is an honorary patron, says: I was delighted to hear about the plans for the next chapter in Time Teams story. Thanks for the many years of wonderful, intelligent, entertainment Time Team, we will really miss you. we dont want more programmes that is rubbish there is more than i could even say. Tony Robinson is proud of the programmes success in making archaeology accessible. I have just realised that time team is to be axed by c4.
