Time Team S20 Special - 1066 The Lost Battlefield
Tony Robinson gives the history books one in the eye by discovering where the Battle of Hastings was really fought. The battle is the most famous in English history but not a single bit of archaeological evidence for it has ever been found. Have historians put the battlefield in the wrong place? Time Team set themselves the task of uncovering the true location of England's most famous defeat. For decades there has been dispute over the site, even though Battle Abbey is supposed to stand exactly where Harold fell. In 2012 a bestseller claimed that Caldbec Hill, a mile away, was the real site. But most historians still believe the main focus of the fighting was in the fields below the Abbey. Time Team excavate both sites to seek evidence of either one being a battlefield. Digging alone is inconclusive. But a cutting edge aerial technology called LIDAR to map the terrain proves that the traditional battlefield would have been too boggy for William's Norman cavalry. So military analysts study the data to see where Harold, a skilled commander, would most likely have mounted his defence against William's invading army. They identify the only ideal battlefield. It seems Harold's fearsome Saxon shield wall straddled a narrow strategic pass that is on today's A2100. It leads to a surprising conclusion about where the heart of the battle was fought, and why William won and Harold lost.- published: 12 Dec 2013

Time Team S13-E08 Castle in the Round, Queenborough, Kent
On the mouth of the Thames, lie the remains of Queenborough Castle. With a royal name, and an equally regal history, this unprepossessing site hides some intriguing mysteries - buried, along with the building's remains, over centuries. Time Team travel to the Isle of Sheppey, in Kent, to investigate the remains of the last royal castle to be built in the medieval period, in an effort to unlock some of its long-held secrets. The castle construction was ordered by Edward III during a lull in the Hundred Years War, but opinion is divided as to whether this was a defensive castle, designed to protect the Thames estuary, or a royal bolthole for the king to escape the plague.- published: 29 Mar 2013

Time Team S19-E02 A Village Affair
There's a problem in the chocolate-box village of Bitterley in Shropshire. The village's school and cottages cluster prettily around the green. But the village church and the manor house lie more than half a mile away, on the other side of a lumpy, bumpy empty field. The villagers, led by energetic community archaeology group leader June Buckard, have been exploring the field and believe that their village used to be much bigger, with the field full of houses and streets. They have called in Tony Robinson and the Team to see if they're right. But they're not expecting the professionals to do all the work. Half the village turn out, ready to dig test pits in their gardens and in any spare piece of land they can get on to. Trenches appear almost hourly in gardens, from the smallest cottage to the grand manor house lawns. And it takes every hour of the three days for the villagers to get their answer. But judging by how much they seemed to enjoy it, they're probably still out there digging anyway!- published: 10 Mar 2013

Time Team S11-E08 Goldcliff,.Severn.Estuary
As the beach of the Severn River gradually erodes, it reveals astonishing evidence of some of this country's earliest inhabitants. But can that evidence - flints, food remains and, most remarkably, fossilised footsteps - be recovered before it's destroyed by the fierce tide? Tony Robinson and the Team step back 8000 years to get their first ever glimpse of hunter-gatherers. They must battle the mud, tides and weather if they are to preserve these vital clues to a long-lost way of life.- published: 08 Apr 2013

Time Team S13-E09 Sussex Ups and Downs, Blackpatch, Sussex
One hot day in 1922, a young man called John Pull strolled across the Sussex downland at Blackpatch, just outside Worthing. He was the victim of a First World War gas attack and he had come there looking for fresh air and peace. What he discovered was one of the very few Stone Age settlements in England. John Pull wasn't an archaeologist or antiquarian but a 23-year-old gramophone salesman - which made him highly unpopular with the archaeological elite. His work was sneered at, his finds were lost, the site was bulldozed - and, in a tragic twist of fate, he was murdered in a bank robbery. Eighty years after Pull first set foot on this hill, Time Team came to reassess his work. Was this really the site of a prehistoric village? And what about a mysterious second site, which Pull recorded but had since been lost?- published: 29 Mar 2013
