- Get ready for Time Team's first brand new episodes of 2024!
For our latest three-day dig, Time Team joins forces with the people of Modbury to uncover their dramatic history. We hunt for clues throughout the town, in attics in living rooms, and under brand new lawns. We're looking for for evidence of Civil Wars that raged through the town in the 17th century.
Time Team are joined by Jim Stetson, whose family sat at the heart of the community before they left for America to find their fortune making hats. But will we piece together the dramatic ups and downs of Modbury and its fascinating history? We have just one day left to do it!
Join us for the official three-part premieres, right here on the Time Team Official UA-cam channel:
Day One: • NEW EPISODE | Day 1: ...
Day Two: • NEW EPISODE | Day 2: ...
Day Three: Sunday 7th April, 7pm BST
Plus, join us behind the scenes for our exclusive Dig Watch coverage over on Patreon: / timeteamofficial

omg you cracked 10k. three cheers for time team patreons!!!
See😊@@cbate2702
My son found that floor, he is still excited!
How wonderful. A budding archeologist. Congratulations to him from me.
Very cool!🎉🎉
Congratulations!
Maybe a potential and future archaeologist? 🍀
If he likes it, get him a trowel, a couple pieces of flint, a Dutch army sweater and a hat with a feather. 😉
Aw, that's so great. I bet he'll remember the experience forever.
how wonderful such an amazing memory!
Loved seeing the Mick doll. He is sorely missed by so many.
I audibly went “awhhh, it’s Mick” when I saw that.
At 3:30
Just saw that too. That was cool lol
@@watcher171 😍
His spirit lives on. Like the whole show, he inspired people to look around them and he left an indelible mark on so many people. That's quite a legacy and I think he would be very surprised by it all.
Stewart is such a trooper and so dedicated to time team and his landscape histories. Don't know how old the man is now but by now most would be rocking on the porch dottling the grand kids. So good to see teaching going on with the tried and true archeologists. Just warms my heart to see things progressing into the future.
He'll be 73 in June.
Stewart is the MAN!
I identify most with him for his cartography and lay-of-the-land reading skill set. Would love to compare notes over a pint, or three.
It would be a rare treat to chat with the man over a pint !!
If I was on Time Team, I would be Stew!
73!!!! He looks good on it
Stuart is a gem.
He’s my fave. He is so full of knowledge.
A bump on a hill a curve in a road he has a whole history of an area.
I simply cannot express the joy I feel every time I watch a new Time Team episode!
Precious Mick will always be present at any Time Team dig!! 💕💕
The same goes for Phil.
Love seeing knitted Mick at the digs 🌈
❤
He will start to look like Phil's Old Hat at some point with all these new digs, hope a fan out there Knits another one...
As much as I love the uncovering of big structures and stories, these community digs that give a glimpse into a thousand years of history of a particular place are my favourite episodes!
The revived Time Team is just outstanding. It’s taken the concept to a new level and feels like it’s grown up.
Absolutely riveting 3 days. There was a beautiful nod to Mick Aston too. Long live Time Team
The ‘new’ TimeTeam is finding its feet! It’s not the ‘old’ one, but it is growing on me! This was a terrific dig. Delighted to have contributed my little bit through Patreon. Keep up the good work.
Marvellous! As someone who has watched TT since the beginning on Channel 4 in the early 1990s, this series gave me the full TT experience.
I miss Victor's wonderful drawings.
I discovered Timeteam about 3 years ago. I've been hooked ever since. I've bingewatched all 18 or 20 seasons. From the time when Tony Robinson had long hair and an earring to being bald. I've enjoyed every episode and now a Patreon. There is amazing archeology around the world, all shedding light of the past. England has done something very unique. They brought archeology to people's doorstep. They have help create such a sence of community in an ever more distant world. I wonder how communities would change all over Europe if they did the same. Would they feel more connected instead of displaced, turning their once thriving cities into ghost towns?
Welcome to the Team.
Dr. Parker is a joy to observe. He seems genuinely, and delightfully, enthused at what is being found. Almost like a 'kid in a candy shop'.
Thank you!
My pleasure. ❤️
That is very kind of you. It is wonderful to be allowed to do this work!
@user-sm9ly5qk2n - It’s not ‘work’ when you’re having so much fun!
@@user-sm9ly5qk2nI want to echo this sentiment! I really enjoyed hearing your perspective in this dig. I'm going to share this with my architecture professor mum who has her masters and PhD in environmental psychology from the university of Surrey. I think she will really enjoy your contributions!
I can’t extol Time Team enough for continued their excavations. In additional to the scientific and educational content, there’s something quite comforting about seeing the original Team members.
so nice to see the community test pits approach. these people seem really enthusiastic to learn about where they live. a great way to add history to the world.
Really superior dig presentation. Three episodes for a 3-day dig is exactly right.
I would like to see way more of Stewarts work. He can tell us so much from reading the landscape, yet he seems to often only get the footnotes. Now, I don't know how much he manages to actually find for every episode, but it would also be interesting listening to him how he is working when interpreting the landscape and its use over time. How about a Stewart Ainsworth special where he gets to talk about his favourite work and locations?
Yes please! I’d love that too
Love that Carenza has nicely taken the roll of 'Mick Aston'. The leader and guide. Fits Professor Lewis quite well.
I have admired her for years- it’s grand to see her in her element.
Gus has done a great job as Tony’s successor.
Yes! I think he’s marvelous!
Another standing ovation from me. What a cracking 3 episode Time Team, enjoyed every moment. Thanks for the thrills
I can’t even imagine how exciting it would be to have so much history in your own backyard.
We have a young country in comparison.
Our Native Nations have the history here
A complicated but fascinating history of the town and the aftereffects of a civil war. Modbury seems to be a lovely place. Thank you, Time Team!
Time Team is awesome!!!
Fantastic! Loved it. Time Team is certainly going from strength to strength. I loved the old Time Team but this evolution is brilliant.
That was amazing! So awesome to see Stewart, Helen, Carenza Matt, Dani and John being as enthusiatic as ever, thank you so much!
I thought this episode was the perfect evolution of the new Time Team. The presenting felt like a group effort. The new technology added to the dig rather than feel like it was being used to show how things have changed since the classic series. There was a lot of excitement and warmth from the team, guests and public. Absolutely fantastic! Thank you
The Gater doppleganger (doppelgater?) had me rolling 😂😂
In typical Time Team form, the tantalizing bits & pieces of history come together at the end of day 3.
I have enjoyed watching every minute... as a member of Time Team Patreon, in my opinion, you did us proud. A huge thank you to the people of Modbury. This was great !! 👍😁
A fabulous 3 days, learning so much, and hopefully inspiring the next generation of archaeologists and historians. Bravo!
Some of the New Team are actually childhood fans of the TV Show who went into archaeology and are now part of TIME TEAM, can guess which ones....
3:29 -- OMG the Mick plushie killed me. 🙂❤
Looking forward to a very nice episode of my favorite Time Team Hello from Massachusetts, farmer Rich.
Thank you Time Team for another fine adventure in archaeology. I’m happy to be a Patreon contributor so that I can look forward to more of these in the future!
Talk about peeling back the layers. I have a Stetson ancestor that I've been wondering about and Time Team just gave me a chunk of my family tree. Totally unexpected.
Awesome! Well worth the wait. Stewart's wanderings are always my favourite bits! Especially loving the selfie footage from these episodes. Looking forward to more episodes.
Modbury is a nice town, just down the road from me. Never spent much time there, for many people its just a high street you drive through on the way to somewhere. My forklift truck training was held there a year ago, gave me the chance to wander the back streets. That gave me a new appreciation of the place, and this episode has propelled that even further, thank you.
This one genuinely felt like classic Time Team. Congrats to everyone involved- the 'team', the whole crew, the editors, the people of Modbury, and especially the Patreon supporters who helped make it happen. Cheers.
Absolutely brilliant! You have no idea how much joy Time Team brings me. I’m proud to be a patron!
Stewart’s ability to see the past in the landscape is always fascinating! Honestly if I lived in the U.K. or anywhere in Europe, I’m pretty sure I would dig up my own garden just out of curiosity!
3:30 miss ya Mick!
An episode which makes you smile throughout. Beautifully managed, all the layers. Definitely a Gus fan.
So great to see residents of all ages so involved and interested!
🇨🇦 I like Gus, he is always happy and smiling. This whole Modbury dig was fascinating. I liked that Sir Walter Rawleys mother was there!!
Well done, Time Team! Excellent presentation.
Enjoying this presentation from the Willamette Valley in Oregon, USA
Dr Richard Parker seems the kind of guy I'd love to have at my dinner party. Fascinating dude.
See how deep the pit is dug to find the floor; it's amazing how much soil accumulates in only 500 years.
I like Richard. He’s got so much info floating around in his head, he struggles to get it all out in a way we can understand. I get it. I do the same thing. He’s interesting.
Heh heh! Thank you! I was never very articulate!
@@user-sm9ly5qk2n I’m a fan. Not a critic. You’re just so wise and knowledgeable your mouth can’t keep up with you. lol. You have interesting and concise info. Again, that was not a knock. A light hearted compliment. Look forward to seeing you more sir and hearing your wealth of mental surplus. Cheers!
@@user-sm9ly5qk2n and your profile photo is Fester? Oh yeah. You and me are buds. It’s official
@@user-sm9ly5qk2nAlso hoping to hear more from you!!!
Seeing the history of the town through landscape, architecture, history, genealogy, and archeological finds is fascinating. It’s a joy to watch the community contribute and learn as well.
And this is exactly what Mick Aston wanted TIME TEAM to be, the community and children, the common folk.
He be smiling, I am sure...
Fascinating info on Iron Age era, I had suspected that Runaway Lane could have been a much earlier trackway predating even Saxon/Norman mott-n-bailey Modbury, perhaps eroded by stormwater runoff down the slope but I couldn't explain such a deep cut- so glad you tied it to later 18thC earthworks, makes so much more sense, even as the lay of the land looks almost Tolkeinesque, it couldn't have been Ringwraiths or Orcs that made that ha ha !
Just brilliant to have Time Team back, well done
I love seeing the children involved with the digs. As an adult I was able to help with a dig and it was a high point for me, imagine how much children are inspired for their future.
Really enjoyed this, especially I was a former Civil War re-enactor. How wonderful for Mr Stetson to find proof of his lineage.
So the evidence for the Battle(s) of Modbury is two bullets (one of which might be from hunting), the apparent post-Restoration remodelling of the village/town, and some disparate accounts that vary wildly regarding scale and composition of the armies. Sir Basil Grenville, the Royalist commander states '.... our loss at Modbury was little the enemy's great. We had not ten men slain; the enemy about 300, some say 500, and they retreated safe to us.' The Parliamentarian _Perfect Diurnal_ claims that the Royalists fled leaving five artillery pieces and around 1,000 muskets whilst Parliament suffered seven casualties. [Source:- Laurence Spring - _The Armies Of Sir Ralph Hopton_ p.131]. Great set of programmes, look forward to more.
It was a total honour to work on the “Hopton Castle” dig and meet the crew… I now watch TT daily and use it as my fall asleep fix…
My families forefather , dating from the same period and rough area, was also punted out of the UK for being a parliamentarian. I don't know but given that we were Devon folk, it is feasible that someone from the family was at this battle.
One of my ancestors was a cooper, who lived on Brownston Street, so great to see the street mentioned, as well as to find so much about one of my ancestral home towns.
Can i just say how adorable Hilde is in Parliamentarian garb? :D
I've been doing this work for 40+ years, I love it so!!
Carrenza and Helen are the royal princesses of Time Team❤
What a great three days. So much history unearthed and everyone worked so well together. Love the Mick doll! Always there in spirit
Brilliant how the story is unfolding, after a slow start. I'd love to win a Stetson but sadly ViralKit says that "This code has already been used", well not by me it hasn't .... so back to my battered and favourite baseball cap then!
Fun seeing the kids getting involved in their community and learning their local history. Very cool. Brings the community together. Good stuff
it is so fun seeing the continuation of the team. I remember Tony with black hair, turning grey and ending up white. Helen hasnt changed much and the only change in Carenza is that glorious white mane. Matt has changed since he was so young (compared to the more experienced members) and cheeky. now he looks grown up. we have all aged together.
niminy-piminy - word of the week!
Every time flint is found, I can't help thinking of Phil Harding and how giddy as a schoolboy he would be for those finds! ^^
Thank you everyone involved and thankyou to all the Patreons who have made it possible.
Happy to!
I know mick is with you guys but I can see him having a blast at this site ❤
I’ve really enjoyed the Modbury episodes. Love the whole test pits in your back gardens idea, and excellent job of involving the local schools. Carenza is so great with the kids. Very happy to support TT through Patreon, very happy with what Tim and TT do with that funding. (And yes, I miss Mick too.). Onward to Sutton Hoo!
Loved the little “Mick Aston” - miss that man, and what an amazing little test pit, so neat and tidy, Phil would approve I am sure!!
The test pits were very exciting because they revealed that towns with many years of history could invent and reinvent themselves as the community's fortunes rose and fell. Thank you!
Love archaeology and Time Team so much that i have changed my name by deed poll to Doug Trench-Hard !
With that hat and flints, I felt as tho Phil was going to just appear!
Phil, I miss you. May the odds ever be in your favor with your current dig.
What intrigues me the most about archeology, is it's parallels with my former profession as a weather forecaster/meteorologist. There is no way you can know all of it, but very narrow specialty interests. e.g. pottery/stoneware = tropical storm morphology, and the comparisons go on. We can know "some" of most of it, but, there will always be more to learn.
Brilliant Time Team. Thank you very much
Such a fabulous, rich heritage you found in Modbury! It was an spired choice of site.
Classic time team. Can't wait to rewatch it when it comes out as a compilation episode
This was a wonderful series. Gus seems much more relaxed and the flow was great.
Brilliant work!! Ditto on the Mick Doll
I don't normally notice such things, but that period Tudor dress with matching French hood is stunning.
Oh, and the vicar is straight out of Central Casting.
Fantastic. Thank you all so much.
Excellent episode! Proper good old TT.
Thank you! Hope to see more some time soon. Good night!
I really enjoyed these episodes, they felt very tactile and real. I love that you showed more of the real finds and not as many digital reconstructions.
Good on you for encouraging future archeologist
I thoroughly enjoyed all three episodes. It's particularly impressive that all the information was gathered together from test pits, little windows of history.
Absolutely loved this! 😊
Loved all three episodes… It had the closest look and feel to the old time team episodes🥰
We need a Dr Parker spin off show, his enthusiasm is so admirable new time team legend unlocked...👍👍👍
I am most flattered, thank you.
Love the re-enactments in the reconstructed buildings - these really bring the history to life.
Amazing to think there has been virtually no archeology exploring the towns formation before. What beautiful stone work to find just laying in a garden.
Another wonderful time team.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Penny for your thoughts Phil.. If you're watchin' this, "Hello big man, I hope that you are enjoyin' a nice 'even-tider'. Take care! Yo." Kernow dyworth😉🍺👍
Well worth my investment thank you everyone for an excellent dig and so looking forward to future programmes. Love seeing everyone enthusiastic and how technology has enhanced our knowledge. A long journey from the first resistance readings back in 1993 when we were following the King Alfred dig.
Coming from Texas the Stetson connection really caught my eye. Hubby has several Stetsons I bought him. Amazing! Love Time Team.
This was a terrific Time Team! So happy to see it back and forging into the future. Love the community dig aspect.
That was brilliant, really enjoyed it. Cant wait for the next one 👍
I visited Modbury a very, very long time ago when, as a Boy Scout, we camped quite nearby. It`s obviously extremely old.
This was incredibly fun. Thank you!
