Life on The Edge 1000BC | Time Team Classic Special

Join us for the re release premiere on Sunday 18th October at 7pm BST. We're heading back into the Time Team archives to revisit another fascinating Classic Special! This time, we're travelling to Lincolnshire for "Life on the Edge 1000BC", where the team take on a race against time to uncover a remarkable Bronze Age settlement before it's lost forever. Join us as we revisit this incredible excavation and discover what life was like in Britain over 3,000 years ago. Don't forget to get involved in the live chat and share your thoughts with fellow archaeology fans – we love rewatching these classic episodes with you all! In this episode, Tony Robinson and the team head to Washingborough, in the Witham Valley just outside Lincoln, where a major Late Bronze Age settlement lies in the path of vital flood defence works. With just six weeks to investigate the site during the autumn and winter of 2004, the archaeologists must race against the clock to record its secrets before the landscape is transformed and buried beneath tons of clay. Working in challenging, waterlogged conditions, Mick Aston, Phil Harding, Bronze Age specialist Francis Pryor, wood expert Maisie Taylor and landscape expert Stewart Ainsworth help uncover thousands of fragile prehistoric artefacts, ancient wooden structures and environmental remains. Together, these remarkable discoveries offer a rare glimpse into life around 1000BC, revealing how people lived and worked in this landscape thousands of years ago.
