Time Team: The Full Programme List
Time Team started life as an idea that came out of a series of four programmes called Time Signs broadcast in 1991. Produced and directed by Time Team series producer Tim Taylor, they were presented by Mick Aston, who had previously discussed the idea of devising a popular archaeology programme with Tony Robinson. So when a pilot Time Team programme was made in October 1992, it was Mick's suggestion that Tony should present it. The pilot programme was never screened, but the idea was good enough to persuade Channel 4 to commission a four-programme series of Time Team, which was filmed in 1993 and broadcast the following year. The rest, as they say, is history ... or should that be archaeology?

The following list includes all Time Team programmes in the first seven series (for details of the 2001 series onwards, click here) as well as for the Live events, special programmes and the Time Team-related Time Signs and History Hunters series. The dates when the programmes were first broadcast are shown against each programme, plus (in brackets) the dates when they were recorded.
