>TIME TEAM LIVE!
>
>Over the August bank holiday weekend, Time Team goes live for the first
>time, broadcasting an archaeological dig against the clock and 'as it
>happens'.
>
>The chosen site - somewhere in the heart of England - has lain untouched
>since the landowner accidently discovered it over 20 years ago. Aerial
>photos of one of the fields, taken in the summer of 1976, clearly showed
>strange lines in the ground that looked suspiciously like the outlines of
>buildings. Now the landowner has asked Time Team to investigate.
>
>Experts suspect that the site is Roman and, given its size, believe they
>may have a significant archaeological discovery on their hands. Time Team
>has just three days to discover what lies under the ground, using all the
>high-tech geophysical methods at its disposal as well as simple hard labour.
>
>Presenter Tony Robinson and the rest of the team - joined by a number of
>celebrity guests - will broadcast live from the site three times a day. And
>there will be an hour-long round-up on Monday evening.
>
>As well as the television broadcasts, there will be regular updates on the
>Channel 4 website, on 4-Tel and via a dial-and-listen telephone number.
