[Epictetus]

Thanks, everybody. Well, at least the show isn't entirely driven by television and commercial considerations, and reports of the excavations are filed with museums.

Sir (God help us!!) Tony Robinson walking across a perfectly trowelled site without any understanding of what he was doing.

I wondered if they wanted the host to be clueless. He played the part of someone completely out of his element, and the archaeologists were always explaining things to him. This would be a way for the viewers to learn what was going on. However, if he was damaging the sites because he didn't know better, that would be a problem.
