New Episode | Day 3: Secrets of Wytch Farm | Time Team (Dorset) 2024
It's our final day at 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 one day left to find out!

As for him tuning in - the Phil I knew refused to have a tv. 🙂
I was critical of Gus and his demeanor at the beginning. He seemed too gentle and cerebral to be able to pass along the excitement that I had come to associate with Time Team due to Tony's energetic style. However, I was wrong. Yes, the styles are very different; but Gus has come into his own here, and the rest of the team - old and new - are just a pure delight. The networks could take lessons from Time Team on how television *should* be done; how it doesn't have to be dumbed down to be entertaining, educational, and delightful. I am so happy that they are here.
When he said 500 Winters that struck home how time is fleeting, but I’m enjoying every minute of these new episodes! 😌👏🏻🐾
I love this longer three part/three day format. 👍

It’s programmes like Time Team that keep us grounded and connected to our historical landscape. Given the time limits, really interesting archaeology. Excellent presentations by host and senior team. So nice to see everyone providing their expertise on site and in real time. Five stars to Emily and her camera teams, and of course to Tim, a creative genius. Danielle’s regular updates compliment the main show. Happy Birthday!
Fabulous. Simply fabulous. I hope more exploration and discovery happens at this site - it is obviously so rich and so worthyt of future study. Thank you, everyone, for a fantastic three days.

I've been watching Tt for more than 20 years and i love every one of the team, but I am really getting to love Gus. He had a very difficult job, stepping into the footprints of a giant, and he does it brilliantly! His voice is soft and sweet, his smile contagious, he is clearly loving what he does. I hope we will see many many more episodes with him. Go on old and new team!

Oh man that end with the tents and cars stuck in mid had me laughing. I love how real this show is on so many levels. And I love you included that. I am so happy you are back creating Time Team. Thanks for an other brilliant episode!
Bravo, the end credits enlightened me as to how many people, organisations and skills were involved in this dig. Thank you very much. I'll watch it again and again. Long live Time Team.
Happy 30th Birthday Time Team, and many more. Everyone seems so comfortable together and have achieved amazing results. Thanks very much for everything you do.❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
It's good to see something that isn't completely resolved at the end of three days - feels like real life. I hope we get the chance to see what happens in the future, Derek??
The beginning, not the end - wonderful words! What a complex, fascinating story they are discovering on Derek’s family’s farm! I’m sorry the diggers had to deal with flooded tents, though. Take care, Time Teamers!
Happy 30th to ALL the team , Past,present,and to the future!! For TIME TEAM !!🎂✌️🥃😁
fantastic 30th anniversary episode! This really is my favorite kind of time team, it's difficult ephemeral archaeology that really requires the highest level of expertise and brings to bear the highest level of scientific scrutiny. This kind of stuff that really works towards answering difficult questions about every day people about whom there is next to no written history is really the heart of what modern archaeology is all about. Evaluating sites like these in tight time constraints is what archaeologists really train for and getting as much information as you can to study in the post excavation analysis is a real treasure. As Mick Aston pointed out when pitching the concept, most evaluation excavations are only given that much time if even that and often with far fewer resources, the goal is to get as much as you can to study and hopefully protect the site for future generations. Time team is no doubt an invaluable resource for archaeological work in Britain and a fantastic inspiration for archaeologists everywhere!
What an absolutely wonderful dig. I love the 3 separate episodes over the weekend. I’m so proud to be a patreon. That weather was something else. 😂❤ Edit: I absolutely love they way you incorporate the team into the artwork and 3D models. Such a lovely idea 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
As an enjoyer of the previous iteration of this show I feel compelled to comment on Dr Gus has grown into the role of main narrator extremely well IMO. Not falling into the trap of replicating the previous version and managing to improve on the role and enhancing viewing experience.

Don't we all. It's simply shameful.
Time Team is my addiction, it's helped me through many a day of illness and pain. Although I would love the classic channel to put up every episode of every season. I'm in Australia so unlock those that won't play in my zone. Keep these wonderful digs coming 30 years of fascinating history. Happy Anniversary TT. Keep them coming.
Happy 30th birthday, Time Team!
Great stuff as always. TT never disappoints! The friendly cooperative atmosphere is always regreshing these days and shows how much humanity can achieve when we all pull together with a smile 😊
Thank you so much Time team. Excellent episode as usual.
I love the ending) a bit of the behind the scene stuff is always nice to see
Another brilliant adventure. Thanks everyone at Time Team.
Thank you for being great for incredible 30 years. Thank you for moving to youtube (I have been following you from Slovakia for decades). Thank you for inspiring my crazy archeology themed dreams. ♥️
This is an absolute classic Time Team at its best.
3 for 3 on the production of this dig. Instead of dumbing the information down, letting archaeologist explain the site through their excavations has made it very enjoyable. The use of hypothesis of usage (kiln) then tested through water filtration to prove or disprove those hypothesis was a good demonstration of how different aspects of archaeology come into play to understand site usage. Sadly, the conclusion is the standard 'made for tv' ending of grander speculation than is warranted. 5 out of 5 for the demonstrated archaeology, 2 1/2 out of 5 for the conclusion.
An amazing production. Thanks.
Awesome work - I'm very happy to keep contributing to keeping Time Team running. Looking forward to the next one!!
You should leave the remnants of your furnace in the ground so that archeologists in 2000 years time can see that the site was reused.
Whoop Whoop. New Time Team!!!!!
Fabulous. Happy to be a Patreon supporter of Time Team. Keep up the great work!
Very good. A hard and wet dig but with excellent overall results. The iron smelting was especially good. More please!
Another enjoyable 3 days. Time team is awesome.
Really enjoying the new format, I particularly lke the handdrawn recreations much nicer than sterile old computer reconstructions. The highlight of this episode for me was seeing John Gater pushing a wheelbarrow.
Time team on Sunday night, perfect
Thank you Time Team!
These are some of my favorite digs. I love seeing how land use changed with time, and how the ordinary, hardworking rural resident was the backbone of the larger economy. I hope Time Team revisits this site or we get an update from Derek.
Good evening, How nice that there are new Time Team episodes. I am a big fan. What strikes me is that it is all a bit relaxed, which is nice. Nothing against Tony Robinson, but he was quite hectic at times. Keep up the good work.
The weather strikes again. Awesome episode. Looking forward to seeing if Naomi's investigation is enlightening.

Dr Casely-Hayford, 20:29 : the last person in the UK who still says "there are" for plural things, instead of the now ubiquitous "there's" 👏👏👏
Marvelous, so much to like here!
So much to contemplate and absorb. Instructional all along the way. And, seriously, ending with the drama of leaving through the sodden landscape is something we can all relate to, scientist or not.
Outstanding work, everyone 🙌 I was hanging on every word, a HUGE grin on my face... Thank you Derek, Lawrence & the entire Time Team Crew. You brought us a belter... 🤟😁
Well, futz: still an hour to go….guess I’ll run an errand before I settle in for the conclusion. So good to see Carenza, Matt, and Jackie again along with newer cast.
I think Mick Aston would be proud of the new Time Team. Hope you can get Phil to make an appearance at some point.
Thanks Time Team!
Seeing the team leave at the end might be the most entertaining part of the entire show haha. What a little rain can do to cause so much havoc haha.
I’m starting to like this new format where they split into two teams to do more stories. Also, breaking up the days on site into different videos give the ability for more information on each site.
Another wonderful dig in a stunning setting next to Corfe Castle and the Swanage Railway. Despite the deluge on day 3, you all did so much amazing work. Hopefully as was said at the end, work will now continue on this fascinating site. Do please keep us updated!
I smlied over the Mick doll in this series. ❤
BRAVO TT! Thank you 👏👍😊
It is an excellent "true" time team dig.
Another terrific dig! Love the new technology fleshing out the finds.
Superb. Bravo Team, you are a class unit, in my opinion. "Pub!" Next!.......
All of the footage behind the credits looks very familiar! Especially the flooded tent bits! 🤣
Wow…… So interesting. Love TT & I recently became a Patron member. 👍👍❤️❤️🇺🇸
I am continually surprised at how deep they must dig to find the ancient layers. It was interesting to hear them also question where all of the soil came from.
Brilliant work everyone of you And it’s so reliably enjoyable hearing characters explain professional knowledge, concerns and work as a team . No Hollywood makeup. Importantly wholesome British folks we viewers get to enjoy your 3 days. Love the closing too. Awesome 👏
right now the horrid British weather is back with wintry skies in late May, could do with some warm weather digs! but that's the truth, you dig in rain and mud 10 months of the year. Brave souls!
Good episode. One of those digs that shows that not every site will give all of it's secrets up in three days. Definitely a lot more work can be done there. Not anyone's fault that there's a very complex story to untangle. LoL
Thanks again. Can't wait for the next dig!
Echoing others , so glad that we’re able to see these digs , fascinating history!
Love the epilogue. Ah, camping,
I really enjoyed this dig and that Lawrence said that evidence of industrial activity would found and so it was. (Was the orange clay evidence of burning?) I never tired of the aerial shots showing how beautiful this place is. I hope more research will be done on the site. I was so hoping, actually, that there would be some evidence of Anglo-Saxon habitation, but I remember someone saying that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence so I hope that some day some evidence will be found.
I never cease to be amazed!
Marvellous!
Fabulous as always! Happy 30th anniversary.
Love Time Team 😃👍🏽
Wonderful episode! Can’t wait for the next one! Thanks!
Can we get some more episodes on pre-Anglo-Saxon pre-Roman invasion Celtic Briton in the lands of what is now England? Somewhere other than Cornwall I know theres already a lot of episodes on Cornwall. Maybe somewhere in Cumbria, Devon, Somerset, West Country etc. Cheers the great content :)
I recall the first time they used 3D with an early version of 3D Studio, and now they're doing this stuff in Unreal Engine.
Just love it! I am addicted to watching time team. Fascinating. And amazing how you are able to weave a story around the finds. Amazed at the skill of archeologists and. their perseverance under such terrible conditions.
Excellent episode as usual.
Well done all! Great production and story-telling. Looking forward to more. Stewart bringing it all together will always be my favourite part of Time Team! :)
Although I live in the far northwest of Canada now, I am from Wool, 15 kilometers from Corfe Castle. This was the closest Time Team to my roots! I can remember visiting Corfe Castle on my last trip back. It is very cool to see what my life might have been like back then.
It suddenly became an underwater dig 🤪😜👍🏻😃

In the 1st episode I saw some wool teasels growing wild and I said wool works! In the 3rd a shale spindle whorl found. Yea! Carding, spinning and perhaps fulling? Love Time Team!
Congrats on 30 years! I think I spotted Henry in Part 2? lol typing this as the credits come up and his name is at the top. More Henry please! But as always, great to see the team at work.

Love the Mick doll & pissed off dog. Great dig guys!
Thank you, TT.
I love this show so much.
Great watch
I just love wondering, how things were way back, and the rain soaking you gives a very realistic view of what they lived with. Thanks very much.
Love it. Thank you Time Team.
