I thoroughly enjoyed Time Team Series 18 (2011). For those of you who have been living under a rock for the last 17 years, Time Team is a British series in which a team of experts carry out an archaeological dig over a period of three days. Hosted by Tony Robinson, and featuring regular experts: Phil Harding, Mick Aston, Francis Pryor, Stewart Ainsworth, John Gator and Helen Geake, the series is equal parts informative and entertaining.
This 3DVD box set features ten episodes:
1. Reservoir Rituals - Tottiford Reservoir, Devon
2. Saxon Death, Saxon Gold - West Langton, Leicestershire
3. Romans on the Range - High Ham, Somerset
4. Hitler's Island Fortress - Les Gellettes, Jersey, Channel Islands
5. Furnace in the Forest - Derwentcote, County Durham
6. Under the Gravestones - Castor, Cambridgeshire
7. House of the White Queen - Groby, Leicestershire
8. Cannons and Castles - Mont Orgueil, Jersey, Channel Islands
9. Mystery of the Manor Moat - Llancaiach Fawr, South Wales

I have to admit that I am a big fan of this show having seen every episode amd most of the specicals since 1994. So it is with great pleasure that I see a full series box set, the first to my knowledge. So it would be quite easy for me to give it 5 stars and rave how good the programme is. However, I have to ask....
Where are series 1 to 17?
Are they going to be released?
For me, series 18 is not quite as good as some of the earlier ones but definately worth 4 stars.
Also, if the above description is correct there are 3 missing series 18 programmes though none of these are typical Time Team digs.
The missing programmes are,
Castle of the Saxon Kings (sort of a mini special, visiting a dig at Bamburgh Castle)
Looking Underground (this was a interesting programme showing how geopysicists works which involved John Gator looking for planted, unusual objects in a field)
The Way we Lived (as per the title, a programme looking how we lived in the past)
I do not want to sound too negative as this is a great programme. For anyone who is interested in anything archaeological or historal mysteries and has not seen this programme I would highly recomend watching. In the UK, series 19 starts January Sunday 22nd. There is a good chance that once you start watching, you be hooked.
I am hoping the previous series appear in the near future!

Couldn't agree with the other reviews more if i tried!...
I loved time team from very early on but have seen so precious few of them that i'm pawing to get hold of all the episodes!
Even if you have no interest in history/archeology to speak of, they are still worth a watch if only for the entertainment value: Tony and the team are masters at what they do and each one of them has a character, humanity and passion that they bring to the programme that keeps you giggling, rivetted and inspired all at the same time. The programme is also expertly edited and produced...it's almost as if they've picked up some of the clippings from the editing room floor and stuck them back in again..
I hope time team keep digging till they drop but, more importantly, i hope the people responsible for DVDising these programmes and distributing them wake up one morning with a full sense of their duty to the British public in getting the first 17 episodes released....!!

Dig This
The Time Team are good to watch and relax with at the end of the working day. Despite the usual formula each dig was different and generated its own set of challenges for the team.
