Greetings trowelly. I can`t stop myself knocking Time Team- it is simply crap. Well said. TT is for the armature who wishes to find out what archaeology is all about carried out by both the professional archaeologists and armatures who can join in. I have never seen the point of trying to inform the public of what a building was just from a few small trenches if archaeology was that easy then we would be out of a job. Time Team brought professionals some of which I like others are just know it all, who think that what they have to say is gospel truth and we all should sit up and take note. Such people should be shot and carry on becoming a pen pusher as this is the archaeology world that we have come to believe.
What TT has brought is archaeology to the public which is a good thing. Apart from that I can't see what else TT has brought apart from armature archaeologists which some now call themselves archaeologists. I mean how many of us dug on rain days how many of us had BB to bed down and just how man of the public think that archaeology is great and easy life. Those are the questions TT should bring out in the programme not the crap that they have come out with. The ending is so made up.
If in doubt its ritual
