Hell even us presumably much younger folks use a cell phone hot spot for internet and things like TH-cam for tv. Look up Tony Robinson on one he did a bunch of other shows similar to this. Also look up digventures here in TH-cam many of the people on this show have given lectures on these topics and they have a buncb. Really everyone on time team has continued to have awesome careers. Except Professor Astin. Sadly he died in 2013.
With cooperage you use the white and red oaks differently. White oaks have structures within the pores of the wood called tyloses. That keeps the wood from leaking and that is tight cooperage. Red oaks lack those structures and won’t hold liquids, so you would use that for goods like apples and that is called slack cooperage.
Ian Powlesland was on TT almost from the beginning, and while he was usually quiet, is one of my favorite TT archeologists. He also operates the digger with the other Ian.
For all Phil's undeniable charisma and infectious wit the show did occasionally reveal a contrasting, far darker aspect to his character. Indeed, when Phil was angry he could be a _very_ unpleasant individual. Good on Tony then for taking Phil's occasional rages in good humour, even when the latter bitterly (and unprofessionally) chided him on camera for minor misdemeanours!
A. Westenholz. Ah, but look around him...Phil has 4 barrels I can see.... 1 under his arm, 3 on his right and probably a couple three more we can't see behind him. Phil's my kinda prepper!! LOL ✌💜😸
No problem there. He knows how to make the stuff himself now and the barrel to put it in. That is a very satisfied smile on his face. I love to see him so happy.
Could have been when the basin silted up and they lost their immediate acces to the sea. Even if its only a few hundred meters, transport over land was way more difficult in those days.
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 after a lifetime of mead drinking, beer and ale would taste like pure spring water. You're probably more right than any of us realize!
Vikings destroyed it.. How dare you! My ancestors were just out on a nice sunday row, when they saw a fire in the distance, they went to help, and found loads of dead monks, so they saved the treasures from the fire just!! *True story*
Horses are usually eaten actually, all over Europe. I'd watch out with animal bones in piles, might be an antrax-bush... A pit to dispose and keep safe animal antrax-victems..
The two presumable kilns they identified .. could that be nitrate boilers… often used two big boilers for the black powder nanufacturing.. they were not burned hot … that period it was very intense aquirement of nitrate for black powder … and it can fit for the site of the marine base there that period
QUESTION - Is it likely that when they garrison was established, they removed a lot of medieval material, perhaps even repurposing the stones, which would be of decent or better quality? I think they would have just busted up a lot of the pottery and tossed it into the river. They weren't archaeologists or academics, just soldiers looking to settle in and get comfortable.
I love the dated feel of some 10-year-old TH-cam videos.. The slightly grainy picture, The audio not lining up with the video.. What did you use to make this, WinAmp?

i thought lindisfarne was in durham am i wrong lol. i have a friend who is leaving australia to visit this place dont want to send her to the wrong place. thanks guys
@@barbmcconnaughey3070 just wait. They have the classics. If those get enough traffic, they'll probably add the last seasons. Personally though, I could do without Mary Anne and the lack of Mick, Carenza, Brigid, and Stewart. The classics episodes are the best ones anyway.
When I daily work in dirt, I use Surgical gloves. I notice the people on show rarely have gloves on. It has just occurred to me: What lotion or oil do they use for their skin?
They don't. Gloves impair the use of the trowel, where 'feel' (how hard or yielding a context is, where an edge is, and so on) is so important. Surgeons use gloves for keeping harmful bugs out of their patients, but soil seldom causes problems, as long as you remember the golden rule: wash your hands before eating. The only time you might wear gloves is when mattocking (using a large digging implement) to prevent blistering. People who dig for a living have hands like rhino skin, more or less.
Um, what? Surgical gloves for digging? You obviously aren't using real tools, or those latex gloves are tattered in minutes. You're also probably digging in potting soil, not rocky, debris littered dirt and clay. Sorry, but this is one of the most laughably asinine comments I've seen in a while. They're archeologists, not germaphobe gardeners.
A dodgy butcher wouldn't have slaughtered and sold off horse meat as beef considering horses are significantly more expensive than cows. Unless they weren't in the middle ages for some reason. Or unless the horse got lame or died of old age and the butcher in question still wanted to make profit of it. Which would bring with itself several new problems if the animal was old or a carrion. It would most probably render the meat very hard and unpalatable. The horse was slaughtered and eaten because there must've been some situation of crisis that resulted with the inhabitants of the castle facing starvation. My grandfather who was a horse artillery soldier in the first world war (I am almost 40 and a late child of late children) recalled an incident from the front where the troops had been cut off from the provisions for some time and had to kill a few of their horses to not die of hunger. They mourned the animals greatly as they were very attached to them, but also noticed that horse meat is very tastful. Still, horse is too expencive and too useful in so many more ways than other animals are and in normal situation it's not economically sensible to breed horses for culinary purposes. I'm not forgetting the horses which as of today end up as an ingredient of some dog food variations. Those are the unfortunate creatures which were bread for all sort of purposes starting from the horse races and ending at the farm work. But along the way something got very wrong for them, got severly injured and were no longer able to serve their original nor any other practical purpose that would make feeding any keeping them financially justified.
I wonder why they always take Phil away for a whole day so he can help recreate something that someone else that didn't dig could have done. After all they only had 3 days and I thinks it's much more interesting what is in the ground. Usually they don't find anything until the third day and then it's over. Another day could have been good too. Especially since it seems that no one will dig in most of these places again.
Maybe so but I just think 3 days were not much and I was always eager to see what they might find:) Phil was my favorite:) Doing fine and you?? I still have an old one side picture from 16 magazine of Jack Wild from when I was about 10 years old. It still has kisses all over I made by borrowing my mom's lipstick and kissing the picture all over:) Did you watch Oliver Twist? Mark Lester was also such a cutie:) No one in my country knows who Witchiepoo is:)
Doing so also gives younger archaeologists opportunity to gain valuable experience on a dig. I'm sure that if anything really important is discovered Phil be be there in a flash!
Yea he like to do it i would to he loves to rebuild things that he finds to. making his own neolithic tools metals so on, he gets into a dig when he is need the most like when a site is really ruined.
Perhaps it's a reasonable fear of retribution for what they did to the Scots and the Irish and the Welsh and the Cornish. Not to mention what they did to the people in India and China and any place they colonized.

The reason that we don't eat horse meat goes back to the prechristian times. In the pagan times, Frigg was the goddess of fertility, and they sacrificed horses to her. After the sacrifice, the worshippers would feast on the dead horse, get royally drunk, and have an orgy. When the Christian priests saw this, they were totally disgusted. They totally opposed the worship of Frigg, and, since eating horse meat was part of that worship, they also forbade eating horse meat. The taboo was so powerful that it continues to this very day, even though few people remember how it started. The funny thing is that, although we can't eat horse meat, our dogs and cats are free to eat all they want.
The mustangs running free on the American plains wouldn't agree with that. They get no maintenance, but thrive anyway. It's keeping and training them in captivity that's expensive. You have a good point, though, about the knights and nobles of Europe. They had enough problems with peasants poaching their deer and stealing their cattle. Any taboo that would protect their horses and hounds from starving peasants would be highly encouraged.
@@steerpike1359 Horse meat is mostly eaten in French-Canadian parts of Canada. Just because you havent heard of it it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Moron.

I've long admired Ian's skill with a digger scoop but scraping literally an inch from upstanding medieval ruins takes a special sort of moxie. Bravo to that man he sped up so many digs with his machines and greatly aided our knowledge of these things.

The constant rotation of the cab to 90 or 180 degrees gave me motions sickness. Have a great day.
Interesting about the horse being eaten. For sure they eat or used to eat horses in France and I recall as a boy travelling in France and seeing butcher shops advertising "Biftek" which was not beef steak but a euphemism for much cheaper horsemeat. I see no reason why they would not eat horsemeat in those times hundreds of years ago on Holy Island.
My first Irish immigrant ancestor sailed from Waterford to St John's, Newfoundland in the 1830s. He and his son were coopers, supplying the cod fishery with barrels. His grandson , a cooper as well, came down to Boston/Cambridge, where there was a colony of immigrant 'Newfies'.
Caroline Hardie is the same woman who got Scargill castle as a wedding present and that tt dug up in a future episode. And you can see her husband Niall Hammond at 43:50
Palace could be a corruption of palisades which could be a name for the pub. As in a shelter from the storm, a place to regroup. It could have also served as a palisade to stop ships from coming in and looting the supplies.
I thought that the brewery/pub could have had a name like "The Palace Inn" or something, possibly named after an actual palace in the vicinity or a large house nicknamed "the palace" - perhaps the neighbouring property, Hardbottle Place?

Or paper? that's chinese and then Islamic
Or glass? that's egyptian
Or ...
To be honest, the real christianity, as christ preached it, is only found in a few select orthodox monasteries in Turkey and the Middle East.
The vikings might have ate the horse.
I truely believe phil is an Alcoholic , hahaha
Again with the Germans
It's out of sync.
Your life is out of sync
They were lucky to have Phil to inject some personality and humour into the show, otherwise it would have been 95% stuffy boffins and a bit sterile.
Bollocks.
That local county archaeologist Caroline looks very nice. Good shot of her backside at 19:45. Pity we don't see much more of her.
Nor does she seem to have a credit for the episode in IMDB.
Thankfully for the rest of us, she also has a brain.
@@BryonLape if you are still interested after 6 years, for the occasional expert they get a screen credit when they are speaking during the programme but not on the end credits.
This is out of sync.
Phil drinking beer on the back of a moving ale cart is oh so very fitting. :) There goes a happy, happy man.
Mick I bet was in his element here. He said he could live like a monk but he couldn’t deal with not having sex. Love and miss this Treasure of a Man. I know I never met him but watching this show you feel like you know all of them
I've long admired Ian's skill with a digger scoop but scraping literally an inch from upstanding medieval ruins takes a special sort of moxie. Bravo to that man he sped up so many digs with his machines and greatly aided our knowledge of these things.
this has to be one of the best shows ever its intriguing,its funny and you learn about history, thanx to all the team for bringing it to life theres great characters who are so enthusiastic and positive I learn and am hoping each dig they find what they are hoping to find
If you think the audio's out of sync, it's only because you need to drink more beer.
+Everywhere2 I honestly didn't notice it being out of sync...but I have had copious quantities of beer....

@ Everywhere2.....Advice accepted!
Do me a flavour, mate - YOU know as well as I do that the audio is *at least* three or four seconds in front of the video!
It's not rocket science!!
What? HIC
I'd love to see programmes like this also on other sciences -- the nitty-gritty of how it's actually done, all the uncertainties and the disciplined way of trying to resolve them.
Im so grateful i grow up and remember a time when Discorvery and History channels did wonderful thing like this instead of some real tv crap ......... real tv has nothing to do with history or discovering anything. Tv is crap now-a-day. Which is why i dont own a tv and i watch you-tube. Cheers!
Where else would we see shows on conspiracies and UFO visitation? :-(
@@chrissmith7669 Exactly what I thought. A serious issue is what the effect is of "factual" channels mixing serious stuff with all that other silliness about ancient aliens, Atlantis and various conspiracies. Not everybody can decide what's what.
Nate, my friend, it seems you could have watched a bit more Schoolhouse Rock and Electric Company. Don't worry about History Channel, focus on grammar and spelling.
@@SkunkApe407 atleast you got my point. I went to school back in the 80's and was pushed through the system and graduated with a 3rd grade education Ive had to teach myself to read and write based on that fact my friend I believe Ive done a good job but I will continue to work on my spelling and grammar Im sure until the day I die. thank you
@@nathangoodfellow5260 if that's the case, then I commend you for your efforts, and encourage you to keep it up. You have a commitment to self education that most "educated" people lack. I respect that more than any diploma or degree.
If we say it's ritual, we actual say we don't know, love that.
It really IS mystical, magical, beautiful. Visited it 45 years ago and think of it so often. Very moving place.
After this episode, Phil quit the team and opened a brewhouse in the priory.
More like "closed down a brewery". I hope to one day be loved the way Phil loves his suds.🤣
Check out Tony's return to Lindisfarne and Saint Cuthbert's walk in S3 E2 of Walking Through History. Great episode!
Thanks for that 😊
Full marks to the sound artists. That music in the beginning was hauntingly beautiful and just perfect for this episode
Thank you for posting the time team episodes. Cheers
The video is not really out of sync. It's just that Lindisfarne suffered an epidemic, that although harmless (and only lasting for 3
days), it caused everyone to have loose lips.
LoL... Nice one, Phil looks right at home.
Operating a JCB with the skill of the Ian's is more of a zen like touch versus by rote learning, you become almost one with the machine. I wouldn't be surprised to know both the Ian's talk to their machine.
The elder ian was a very competitive motorcycle racer in his younger days, I'll bet he felt the same about becoming one with his machine alright.
@@joshschneider9766 A motorcycle racer you say that explains alot. My brother was a dirt track racer and if he came into the pits and said the bike didn't feel right I was doomed to a full teardown. 99% of the time he was right. I became a heavy machinery operator and could feel something wonky through the control handle. Of course I always talked to the machine as well. Thanks for the reply.
@@adamsjerome1839 Ian raced flat track and a bit of trials if I recall the bio correctly.
@@adamsjerome1839 I have a deep love for the big construction machines. The souls of all those guys who had the well paid job of human powering the hamster wheel cranes that built cathedrals no doubt smile on it.
@@joshschneider9766 if Ian did trials riding it explained his skill with the JCB. I have only watched European trails ride and those fellows are magic. That would well explain how his mental computer operated in 3 dimensions, spatial acuity at its best. I tried to operate a swing shovel but failed miserably. The constant rotation of the cab to 90 or 180 degrees gave me motions sickness. Have a great day.
Watching Phil ride off with his ill-gotten gains made this episode!
Well, the neolithic find was totally cool, too. Even tho it was out of location.
"Ill gotten"? No, friend. That's rule number one of Time Team. All ale is Phil's ale. Just ask him!
Not I'll gotten at all. He helped make the ale and the barrel they put it in. He is rightfully enjoying the fruits of his labor.
Damn spell check. Not I'll, ILL gotten. And again it was not.
Tony always looks so suitably concerned and interested
That was a good episode.
Interesting about the horse being eaten. For sure they eat or used to eat horses in France and I recall as a boy travelling in France and seeing butcher shops advertising "Biftek" which was not beef steak but a euphemism for much cheaper horsemeat.
I see no reason why they would not eat horsemeat in those times hundreds of years ago on Holy Island.
Not only in France. Actually it is pretty much an anglosaxon (in the contemporary sense of the word) peculiarity to NOT eat horses.
we eat horse meat in the Netherlands.personally I wont eat it.smoked horsemeat in slices on a sandwich.
Don't miss the true season 8 episode 9 The Bone Caves. This one is actually episode 10.
Thank you Jeannine Garcia!
Yeah, those bone caves are pretty scary stuff. Not because of the creepy skeletons, but the very real danger the living humans are it.
My first Irish immigrant ancestor sailed from Waterford to St John's, Newfoundland in the 1830s. He and his son were coopers, supplying the cod fishery with barrels. His grandson , a cooper as well, came down to Boston/Cambridge, where there was a colony of immigrant 'Newfies'.

Epona, the Celtic goddess of the horses, was a favorite goddess for the Roman cavalry.
I dont mind that the audio is out of sync
I also really like Ian!
Caroline Hardie is the same woman who got Scargill castle as a wedding present and that tt dug up in a future episode. And you can see her husband Niall Hammond at 43:50
Palace could be a corruption of palisades which could be a name for the pub. As in a shelter from the storm, a place to regroup. It could have also served as a palisade to stop ships from coming in and looting the supplies.
I thought that the brewery/pub could have had a name like "The Palace Inn" or something, possibly named after an actual palace in the vicinity or a large house nicknamed "the palace" - perhaps the neighbouring property, Hardbottle Place?
@@kathilisi3019 I was just coming here to say "the Palace" was probably the name of the pub that went with the brewery 🍻
Finally; Phil and I can raise a beer together at the end of an episode :o)
I think they probably called in The Place at first and then it got gradually changed to The Palace.
A few days ago Sky News morning show had discussion of trying to ban the UK Nat’l major race & racing
due to injuries to the horses. Might you contact Sky
w/Legends story? Current topic in UK!
Perfect intro to Legends story!! Please think about it. Try!
When you have a brewery, who needs castles, and palaces anyway.
"What the hell's that?" LOL
The French eat horse meat! And very nice it is too.
Please stand corrected : the French eat RAW horse meat (and Briton new born babies too) ^^
I've always wanted to go to Lindisfarne!
I always imagined Mick to be a Hawkwind fan
Lindisfarne is such a lovely place to visit.
The Norse thought so as well...
@@SkunkApe407 that they did.
Such a beautiful place I've never heard of!
Would you please give Mitch a raise so he can get a different sweater. He wears it almost every show.
One, sadly Mick died in 2013. Two, you couldn't have paid him to wear a different jumper, he was quite attached.
@@SkunkApe407Actually he had several of them in different colors and stripe patterns including at least one with vertical stripes.
@@deborahparham3783 you're correct, and almost every one of them was knitted for him or gifted to him by fans. He was a lovely fella. The world is truly an emptier place without him.
@@SkunkApe407 Very well said. He was a very special man and is sorely missed.
Tony never thanked the Cooper for the pint in the end scene just ignored him and cheersed Phil 😳 he could get kicked out of the British people union for that.
