    A Port and Stilton (Stilton, Cambridgeshire)
    It's a cracker, but what about the cheese? The team head to fromage-loving Stilton after a Roman cheese press is discovered in a ditch.
    We're joined by Time Team's geophys supremo John Gater, who gives us a mini masterclass in his craft. As you'll see, this was a particularly good episode to showcase exactly what geophys can offer. So raise a glass of port (or a bottle of ale in John's case) and enjoy it with a slice of cheese!

    The bantering between John and Stewart is priceless. Those two are most informative sources of the lives of the people being investigated and help paint a more complete picture.

    This is one of the commentaries that I'm really gld I watched, less of a behind the scenes and more of an extention and explanation of the content of the original programme. Fantastic.

    I've always found John's work fascinating and sometimes felt Tony's teasing of him reflected some of the credit he deserved. This explanation of the magnetic reflections and responses was great and so easy to understand. Thank you John for all the priceless work you have done for Time Team over so many years.

    These videos are fantastic..just to hear everyone talking about archeology...still passionate. It certainly enhances the prospect of the 'comeback'. Cant wait, whatever the format...just live to see as many of the 'old' faces as possible.

    It would appear John always has a pen in his hand whenever he does a talk :) I always remember the 90s pens he had as I'd occasionally get the same style bought for me from Asda by my mum :)
