New Episode | Day 1: Secrets of Wytch Farm | Time Team (Dorset) 2024
We've chosen a spectacular location for a very special dig. It's Time Team's 30th birthday and we are celebrating in style...
Time Team heads to Wytch Farm, in the shadow of Corfe Castle, Dorset, where Derek and Lawrence discovered two Iron Age burials back in 2021. They've called in the full team to investigate. Was this a cemetery, and how long have people been living here? Where were they living, and, above all, what were their livelihoods?
Will we uncover the secrets of Wytch Farm? We have just three days to find out!
Join us for the official three-part premiere, right here on the Time Team Official KZread channel:
Day One: Friday 17th May, 7pm BST: • New Episode | Day 1: S...
Day Two: Saturday 18th May, 7pm BST: • New Episode | Day 2: S...
Day Three: Sunday 19th May, 7pm BST: • New Episode | Day 3: S...

I walked around fields in the shadow of Corfe Castle myself in 1986 as part of my geog. field trip. Was wet and miserable. At 15, I would have had no idea that decades later I'd be fascinated by what's in the ground in that same area. I've learned more from Time Team than I ever did in school. It's still so refreshing that it's able to mix education and entertainment in a way that isn't dumbed down, patronizing or just out for the dundunnnndunnnnnn moments. Well done TT. Here's to the next 30 years
That view from the field looking at the castle is absolutely beyond stunning

the new series is really hitting its stride and cranking the quality episodes out now. and Dorset is certainly gorgeous. happy anniversary Time Team. Heres to many more!
Time Team brings me such joy. I absolutely love how we can get three almost 49 minute episodes for each site. Happy 30th Time Team, but it’s us who get the present!
The best new Time Team yet! Old faces and new ones working together and getting camera time with a whole host of tools and techniques. Can't wait for the next episode!

Happy Birthday Time Team, so glad you're back with Helen, Caranza, Matt, Stewart and John and enjoying the addition of Gus and Co

The ruins of Corfe Castle in the background in the morning sunlight looks like an illustration from a children’s book. If no one’s written it, someone should. The illo should be done in water-color a la Turner.
Rachael Seager Smith's reaction is another reason I know that no amount of money could make archeologists keep their finds a secret.

Happy Birthday Time Team! 30 yrs ago I would’ve given anything to be a student on a dig. 30 years on I’m just happy that I have incredible content like this to enjoy.
Wow. Just wow. This is such a treat of an episode, and a fitting tribute to everything that Time Team has done for public history & public archaeology. 45 minutes for 3 days was worth looking forward to in its day, but spending the same time on *each* day gives so much more scope for insight and development of each idea and strategy! 🧡💛💚💙💜
Great to see the latest episode, Happy Birthday to the Time Team…30 years of entertainment, increasing our knowledge of archeology and contributing greatly to all that is known of the fabric of our nations history…let’s hope Time Team is here for another 30 years…..
Happy birthday from the Netherlands. I’m following this series for thirty years now. Keep ’m coming.

Happy 30th Time Team!! Your Banjo enclosure isn't the furthest south...unless you just mean in Dorset. There is one in the Bakers Pit Nature Reserve in Penwith, Cornwall. I don't believe that one has been excavated yet, though.
It’s wild to me to see TT celebrating their 30th birthday mere months before my own. So much knowledge, joy, and inspiration gained from all those years. I’m just grateful all of that is accessible here to look back on and that TT is still going. 💙 Also, this dig is fascinating! A great one to celebrate with
Cheers to Time Team for your generosity in giving us 30 years of publicly accessible outstanding history programming. You understand the power of story to inform and delight us. Great cast of passionate teachers who span generations. What could be more worthy of supporting on Patreon? Congratulations from Ontario Canada
An instant Time Team classic. This team is really coming together nicely, the presenter is doing an impeccable job too.
What a beautiful site!
Happy Birthday --- wishing you many more years of discovery!
Really miss Mck Aston; I am hoping the striped shirt was homage to him. This new team is growing on me....
It’s so wonderful to see that you got the band back together 🙌🏼 My fascination for archeology is a direct result of Time Team from it’s first broadcast all the way back in 1994 🙏

Another fascinating episode. Watching from Missouri USA.
What a fantastic celebration. The graphics are new, the excitement extends onward! So happy to be included.
Going to Dorset water park that is next door to this site makes me amazed at what history is just in the field next to it and now I know I will think differently now!
Perhaps one of my all time favourite TT episodes. Loving 'pit-cam'!
Happy 30th Birthday, Time Team! I love the waving at the drone.

Genuinely perturbs me how too many people think that our ancestors were too undeveloped to carry out complex tasks, yet the more we learn, the more we find that we have to experiment with very complex techniques to create the things required for daily life in the past. We have so much to learn about our past and really need to stop thinking of our ancestors as primitive. They survived through situations we would not be able to with all our electronic technology.
Fascinating site! Such a good choice - well done. Really looking forward to part 2.
Love the people of the new time team....great host!
Congratulations & well done from Tampa, Florida - thanks so much for all the fun, enlightening shows over the years!
