From the secrets and mystery of Stonehenge, the hidden tunnels and dugouts of World War II and the classic story of the rise of the Roman Empire, Tony Robinson and the Team take on some very special archaeological assignments.

EPISODES:
THE KING OF BLING: A chance discovery by archaeologists in Southend reveals an Anglo-Saxon tomb crammed with such impressive gold artefacts that the tabloids dubbed the occupant 'The King of Bling'. It's a burial fit for a king, but who could it be? Time Team follows the investigation into one of the most important discoveries in recent times as archaeologists from the museum of London and specialists from across the world search for clues in the spectacular grave goods>
PERIOD: Anglo-Saxon

BRITAIN'S LOST ROMAN CIRCUS: After three years of painstaking work just outside Colchester's Roman walls, the archaeologists know they have found something unusual. Around the parallel walls that had enclosed a huge structure they discover hundreds of burials, some containing charioteer coins and other piles of horse jawbones. Gradually the archaeologists piece together the evidence to discover that they have uncovered the only Roman circus ever found in Britain and one of only a handful in northern Europe.
PERIOD: Roman

JOURNEY TO STONEHENGE: In a major excavation, archaeologists link the henge at Durrington to its more famous neighbour, Stonehenge and uncover an extraordinary picture of Stone Age life.

THE BIG ROMAN VILLA: The story of the biggest villa excavation in the country for 50 years, some of the finest mosaics ever discovered and a classic story of the growing wealth and opulence of the Romans in Britain is recounted here as Tony Robinson brings together the whole history of the villa in this special. The archaeology demonstrates how the villa grew from a small farm building to a fine stone building and how that was expanded again and turned round to face the buys new Fosse Way.
PERIOD: Roman

BURIED BY THE BLITZ: During World War II, the Blitz destroyed countless homes, factories and civil defences. Dorchester Street in Shoreditch was one of the thousands of streets in London that were bombed constantly and was finally hit by a V2 long-range rocket bomb.

To commemorate the 60th anniversary of VE day, archaeologists from the Museum of London enlisted the aid of dozens of volunteers to excavate the street, now lying under grassland in Shoreditch Park. The Time Team illuminates the finds with real memories as former residents are brought back to relive their experiences of the dark days of the 1940s.
PERIOD: World War II
