Rejected petition A Knighthood for Dr Philip Harding for services to Archaeology and Education.

Philip Harding has dedicated his life and career to discovering and recording the history of our nation as one of the countries leading Archaeologists.

Millions of people watched Phil on the much loved Time Team Series, where he was always dedicated to educating the nation about our History.

More details

Phil is the Teacher we all wanted at School! His enthusiasm is infectious and his dedication is amazing.

Having spent many years educating us about our fascinating history, he still continues to dedicate his time to educating others and helping charitable organisations.

Phil is the much loved and amazingly brilliant man in the trench from Time Team. He should be Knighted for his life long service to Archaeology and unselfishly teaching it to the World.

I say.

Arise Sir Phil Harding!
