You said they'd been drinking beer too. Glad they found time for the simple pleasures ;)
I guess we are guilty of the Time Team thing, and you're right about the 'before and after' work being done by others with no credit, leaving them to edit film in later with amazingly educated assumptions. It makes it dangerous, because when we have this multi-million pound project, we're pretty much conditioned to expect results now.
Most of my dig experience is being a pain in the arse by asking constant questions, taking photos and generally getting in everyone's way, bribing them with beer n stuff to save myself from getting a ban :)
As for the Whitehall civil servant, I just thought it would be better to ask someone with webpage experience to put together the report based on stuff received from the site. If the image is crap, I'm surprised nobody put their hand up and asked for a better one, which is how it would work anywhere else.
