Archaeologist Dr Helen Geake and co-host Martyn Williams explore the world of archaeology.
In this episode Richard Osgood, from Operation Nightingale, reveals what it was really like to excavate at Time Team's latest dig; the princely burial at Cherington. You'll also meet the conservator tasked with bringing an Anglo-Saxon sword back to life.
Time Team's environmental archaeologist, Naomi Sewpaul, takes you on a tour of the lab where she analyses wood and charcoal samples and Helen answers your questions.
There's also Time Team News where we discuss the amazing discoveries at Sizewell C, the site that will eventually be home to a new nuclear power station for the UK. You can read about that and the other stories we mention in the links below:
