I sure hope us others get a chance to see this, not being able to see Channel 4 over here...

Congrats Mark! Almost exciting as the dawn dragon book coming up...

Balinor · 1st August 2007, 10:30 AM

Congrats Mark. Any news on when it'll be on yet?

Mark Robson · 1st August 2007, 10:38 AM

Not yet ... will keep you posted.

Freda · 6th August 2007, 08:54 PM

YAY! Well done Mark!

Mark Robson · 30th October 2007, 09:29 AM

Some news at at last. The scheduling is set in semi hard jelly! Prime time Saturday night on Channel 4 can't be bad!

The series is currently scheduled to start transmitting on Channel 4 at 20.15 on Saturday November 10th. The programmes will be going out in the following order (subject to last minute chamnges by Channel 4):-

Nov 10: Politicians vs. Stewards
Nov 17: Archaeologists vs. History Students
Nov 24: Accountants vs. Investors
Dec 1: Archaeologists vs. Authors (This is it folks!)
Dec 8: Guides vs. Surveyors
Dec 15: Archivists vs. Students

I hope some of you will tune in for a laugh as we authors take on the Institute of Field Archaeologists in a quiz show about ancient history. What would the archaeologists know about ancient history anyway? All they do is sit in holes in the ground fiddlng with mud!

Joel007 · 30th October 2007, 09:58 AM

I'll watch out for it

Can't wait to see how you all do!

Mark Robson · 1st November 2007, 02:41 PM

A change to the schedule already. It's now due to air at around 1745, NOT 2015. TV people! Honestly!

Joel007 · 2nd November 2007, 09:34 AM

I'll have to catch it on 4OD then. At least, they'd better show it on there!

Lenny · 2nd November 2007, 06:17 PM

Now that's a much better time for me. I might be able to catch it, now!

Which is a shame. I won't be able to tape you then, Mark.

Balinor · 10th November 2007, 11:31 AM

I don't have a TV at uni but i'll try and get it online/recorded

SpaceShip · 10th November 2007, 08:37 PM

Brill Mark - it's in my organiser and I'll be recording it on Sky at 17.45 on 4 and then again at 18.45 on 4+1 (Sky 135) just in case I'm out - so it should tape one of them! (My Sky recorder is a bit naff, especially on channel 4.) I reckon you'll do very well. Well, consider archaeologists always have their heads in the sand, or rocks, or a hole or something, whereas authors are full of words! I can't wait. Well done.

M@.Price · 14th November 2007, 07:16 PM

Ooh, i missed the first one. Did anyone see it?

Mark Robson · 19th November 2007, 09:38 PM

Not seen any episodes yet, but should catch next Saturday's.

Ian Whates · 19th November 2007, 10:25 PM

Really looking forward to this, Mark!

Donna Scott · 19th November 2007, 11:32 PM

Oh my God - brilliant!
