Excellent response from Mr Horton, with a suitable sense of humour too.
However, I think it's a bit harsh to suggest that the dramatisation of Time Team would be like watching paint dry, there's plenty of drama in it. Some of the characters are a bit unrealistic though, I mean 'gruff west country chap in broad brimmed hat', come on, that's so obviously stolen from Bonekickers! 'Cuddly gent in stripy clothing', clearly borrowed from, erm, Tellytubbies?![hm]
Mark Horton's response adds a whole new level to it now - each week a special behind the scenes guide for anoraks to reveal what went on behind the story, inside the folder so to speak.
