Watched this episode for the first time last week 4/29/20. Yesterday I learned I am a (very, very) distant relative of Sir James Hobart (1436-1507), member of Lincoln's Inn during the reign of Edward IV of England and was knighted during the reign of Edward VII. The more you know.
"Hello, Time Team? We'd like you to find a palace that was replaced by our building. There's this 2 by 2 metre corner of our garden you're allowed to disturb, and you're welcome to dig anywhere you want in it."
It's absurd! If Time Team showed up at my house I'd be like "Oh, it's under my living room? Well we better get that carpet out and bring in the jackhammers! You know it's concrete under there, right? Let me just move my house. You guys want some tea or coffee?"
Miss Mick, I managed to get attached to him - an ocean and decade away. He was truly a worthy character and I know his TT Peers really suffered his departure to NonPhysical. Positive Energy Thought Gifts to Mick. 💫❤💫 ------------------------------------------------- Also, as thrilling it is to find a dated coin, I always have thoughts that go to: "The individual whom lost their lunch or rent money." 😶❤ Tennessee, USA 🍀🇺🇸🍀
Love the music you were playing short it was short but you played it that's from America the western movies remember listening to those that music Clint Eastwood melted that game
As soon as he said "and if there are any lawyers watching" I just KNEW Tony was going to say "there were no geraniums harmed in the making of this program!" But it still made me laugh.
+Anna Ferrara I had a "Miranda" moment when I heard the word Chichester...at least I think that's the spelling of what I heard. I thought, that's a fun word to say isn't it? Chichester Chichester Chichester....okay now it's just weird, lol.
+Rebel9668 Hi Rebel, you're correct. Chichester is a City near the south coast in West Sussex and has Roman origins. Nice place if you have time to visit.
Tony said "black book", of course I thought "...of Carmarthen...". Alas not to be but would love a series just on the old Welsh (four Ancient Books of Wales) and Irish (Annals of the Four Masters and the Tain) Literature. Or a history of Beowulf would be sweet. The Gododdin and an inquiry into the Battle of Ardderyth.
Very interesting episode. Proves they still had the ability to do good work in spite of the increasingly annoying writing. I did notice that after minute 27, they kept talking about Phi's trench, Phil found, etc. when just before that it was Raksha's trench and they never even named the fellow with the ponytail who was doing a lot of the digging. That's evidence of the deterioration of the producers' mindsets - previously they always gave credit to the people-with-names who were digging.
Not all can be kings and queens, and why should they. As a viewer I don't want to know everyone's name. Communism, driven by jealousy, were everyone is supposed to be equal and included, is impossible. That's why it precludes dictatorship. I prefer representative democracy, where, at least, someone speaks for me. All should not be same or equal. I choose Phil. The other's in his trench are not interesting.
at last people who respect trees, if it was in our garden they would condemn it as a safety hazard, but try it here and you would have a stack of law suits
Sarah Coleman I went into mourning for Mick too, after watching these and not knowing he had died. There are a few people that I feel a sense of regret for never having gotten to meet in person. Mick Aston, Carl Sagan are two that come to mind. And not like meeting personally, a lecture etc.
+Stannous Flouride Would bee a fine move if you noted them down for jus cut and paste into Google Earth :) Your doin a greate job. I am making a list over all the episodes whith the description on every one as they occure here on facebook, and not acording to some sending plan from BBC. And to Rejer Zaaijer, tank you verry verry mutch for all the time and effort you have put into this. Love TT
+ravnum I'm lapping myself. After 4 months I've caught up and learned how to convert from the decimal system to the traditional longitude/latitude nomenclature. So I'm proceeding through and changing the last 4 seasons worth. And then I'll do all the specials and the US Time Team.
“The first thing we do is, let’s kill all the lawyers.” It’s said by a character called Dick the Butcher in Act IV, Scene II of William Shakespeare’s Henry VI, Part II, which was perhaps written between 1596 and 1599. Nothing changes even centuries later!
i know a few people with the last name Chichester/Chidchester...but im from Philly hahah. i always pronounced it with the "i" sound like "eye", not "e". huh. theres also a town near the delaware border called Chichester. it's so interesting how these things carry across generations, continents, and uses.
I guess what is most amazing to me is that so many bishops/religious people required (in their mind) fancy/large homes when no where does Jesus say to aquire wealth.
They were Court officials. That means they had station to maintain, and if they entertained other court officials, they were expected to do so in the manner said officials were accustomed to.
In the Middle Ages the Church was the main route to any kind of intellectual, political, government, educational, literary future. Wholly different role in society than the Church plays today. If you were not interested in a military career, the Church was your option as commerce and manufacturing were the province of the lower classes. This changed pretty rapidly with some merchants becoming very wealthy and intermarrying with the upper classes. See Romeo and Juliet for e.g.
Lora Wiese, " no where does Jesus say to aquire wealth" . No where does Jesus say to pursue any occupation or many, many other things like daily living activities. That's where we use our free will, guided by His wisdom in the Word and by the Holy Spirit. 1 Timothy 6:10 says, "For *the love of* money is the root of all evil: which while some *coveted* after, they have erred from the faith, ". 1Tim 6:17, "Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, *nor to _trust_ in uncertain riches but in the living God, _who gives us richly all things to enjoy_ * ." Without wealth , how could people become educated and successful, to be able to help & supply others or spread the Good News? 2Cor 9:11, "Being *enriched in every thing to all bountifulness* , which causeth through us thanksgiving to God." When God blessed people He did so abundantly, like the New Testament miraculous catch of fish, with more than enough to sell and profit from. When Jesus multiplied the loaves and fishes the multitude were filled, and there were leftovers for the boy to take back home. Jesus provided lots of high quality wine for the wedding feast. Mary and Joseph did not refuse the wealth given them by the Magi, which they most likely used for their trip to and sojourn in the safety of Egypt. Wealthy, faithful Joseph of Arimathea was able to provide the wrapped Jesus a stone grave that fulfilled the stone manger He was placed in at birth. Jesus did not chide Zacchaeus for his wealth from tax collecting, but His attention warmed Z's heart to become more honest. These are only a few of the examples of God's love and blessings for His (John 17:3, believing in Jesus - saved) children. God gives and multiplies, He does not take except to accept seed for the multiplying. God is good. We are made in God's image, which Jesus personified. What father wants his beloved children to struggle, hunger, be diseased, in pain, etc. Ephesians 2:6, "And hath raised us up together, and *made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus*, which is a wealthy place indeed.
+3-J Ranch via Wikipedia: Geranium is a genus of 422 species of flowering plants that are also known as the cranesbills.The long, palmately cleft leaves are broadly circular in form. The flowers have five petals and are coloured white, pink, purple or blue, often with distinctive veining.
They are true geraniums. What we in the US call "geraniums" are actually Pelargoniums. Confusing. But those aren't "odd" geraniums - the ones we buy for Mother's Day are the "odd" ones.
Tony can be quite a Bully and his Targets routinely React. (a bit of Narcissistic ... ?) Was it for the Production or for the feed? Since it's apparently on the lesser end of the stick, we look at the more Positive traits and love him for his positive qualities. 🔑
Why did Tony get so much crankier in this season? He used to cajole the archaeologists in conversation over wasted trenches, but he was detached, informative, and even funny in his narration. Starting with the last episode he started sounding very negative. What happened? Were the producers getting demanding? Personal problems?
Hypatia4242 I wish I knew, he sure is getting on my nerves lately. LOL He has always made me laugh before because I know they had scripted him to say many of the stupid things he has said. Now, he's just crabby!
the producers did meddle with the show in ways that the experts didn't like which caused mick aston to leave like cutting down the number of experts and what most would consider to be dumbing down. basically they tried to move the focus from what the original audience wanted to attract younger viewers that only watch stuff like big brother
pokekitty1 I know, they did this for seasons 18-20. I can barely stand to watch season 19. It was really unnecessary in my opinion. Why does every show have to attract younger viewers, what's wrong with us old farts? LOL
your forgetting, tony is a political activist, a labour supporter, and comes from a poor working class background, compare him to david ike, and you get, why, hes not happy, to be working there
Just that one I'm afraid. I was just thinking it probably smells like my cat's litter box. I'm surprised there's no wild birds living in it by now. I doubt he would try to stop them. Probably just buy them a beer too.
***** Wait, wasn't there a thing a few seasons back where someone wove him a new hat and then he, begrudgingly, went out and bought a new one a few episodes later?
I’m a bit cynical. I bet there’s someone who wants to develop the big open area where the refugees from the fire camped out. Once Time Team evaluates the Roman-Saxon transition or whatever is down there, it might allow for subsequent development (or rule it out). I’m sure there are interested parties looking on. In any case, TT crammed a lot of work and a lot of discoveries into their 3 days!
It was easier for them to dig on Royal Property then it is to dig on University. And people say it's the ridge Royal one percenters that are all the pains in the asses I say it's We the People who are the pain in the asses
Poor ol John Gator.. he spent a 20 yr career, roughly lol, saying how the ground isn't good for geophys. Maybe one, maybe two episodes he gets cocky about the results.. every other he cries. I exhale with lip flapping to see John saying I dunno I don't see anything the ground is too wet or too dry.
I’m directly related to Sir Ralph Neville Earl of Salisbury and Westmorland and co regent of England 1364-1425 he is my 17th maternal great grandfather through three of his children . Cecily 1415-1495(16th maternal great grandmother) Eleanor 1398-1472(16th maternal great grandmother)and Phillipa 1387-1453(18th maternal great grandmother)
hmbsit waloc, She speaks with a non-British accent because she wasn't born in England. You can be a historian about Britain without being born British, you know. In fact, there are many British born historians who are recognized historians about America. Bill Bryson is American born and a recognized and celebrated writer about Britain - and it can go both ways. And there are many Anglo born historians who are experts on France, and many other places which are not anglophone. Stop being so bloody parochial.
Nathaniel Harari Well said. I was on a walking tour in Lincoln, UK, and was, as usual, the only non-Brit (I'm American). One woman asked the guide which king met that awful end at the behest of his French queen. He said, "Oh, the one who had the poker . . . " She nodded. He thought it might have been one of the Richards but he wasn't certain. I politely suggested it was Edward II. I was ignored. They continued and debated that perhaps she was thinking it was one of the Henrys. Again, I quietly suggested Edward II. Again, I was ignored. They concluded that they could not remember which king was murdered so brutally. I smile to think they all went home that evening and looked it up and thought, "Damn American was right!"
Madeleine Brown Those British people ignoring you were ***** (expletive deleted). I come from Lincoln, I've a good mind to go back there and put that guide out of business by being better.
Matthew McVeagh Aw, thanks :) I try to remember not everyone is a history nerd like me (my office-mate says she finds my enthusiasm for history amusing and mystifying). And I LOVED Lincoln, went on many wonderful walks there & spent 6 hours inside that cathedral & many more inspecting the exterior. I think it knocked Durham Cathedral out of first place for my favorite. Definitely on the list for my next visit.
Madeleine Brown The cathedral *is* fantastic, Lincoln is generally great for its heritage and surviving architecture from older times. In the north of the city is the Northgate which is a still standing Roman gate from 1900 years ago under which cars still drive. I don't know of any equivalent of that in other British cities.
In the *UK* there is such a thing as a *Tree Protection Order* and damaging a tree covered by that is a prosecutable offence. Doing it in full view of a bunch of lawyers is a stupid offence.
Marcus Johns ...Sorry I think I misunderstood where you were coming from! Somebody else complained about one of them having an American or Canadian accent.
My comment, you dumb piece of shit, was a reaction against hmbsit waloc's assertion that a British historian couldn't speak with an American/Canadian accent. Did you not read that far? It must be all of 10 comments below this. Also, YOU are displaying your total cluelessness about what racism is, you fuckwit! It is not possible to be "racist" against somebody from New Zealand as they are, in general, not a race apart from other Europeans. They are all fairly recent migrants FROM Europe, dumbarse, so are not a different "race". It might be possible to be "racist" against the Maori people as they are a separate, definable race from the white Europeans that settled in New Zealand. BUT, A) Gallagher doesn't identify herself as being of Maori heritage and B) it still wouldn't be possible for me to be "racist" towards her if she was because I AM!! That's right, you dumb fuck. I am of Maori heritage. My father was a Maori, my mother was English and I grew up in NZ so fuck off with your babbling about racism. Have some idea what you are talking about before you open your stupid mouth again. Fucking retards like you are a disgrace to education systems the world over.
@@marcusjohns5166 And so Mr. Johns are you.. Did your education include using the word "fuck"? It seems you don't know enough words to be able to write a complete sentence without it.
By this point Tony Robinson has become an irksome oik with most of his input criticising others, and occasionally sucking up to them in narration added afterwards in order to try to right his wrongs. Shame the series deteriorated to this extent
hmbsit waloc problem being 🤨 I’m Canadian and had an American professor who came to U of T by way of Harvard who taught European Reformation history / theology - brains are brains notwithstanding accents
Did they ever burn that revolting sweat impregnated "hat" of Phill's and trim his bogie scoop fingernail on his little finger?They love to zoom in on the bogie scoop every time they do a close up when Phill's showing bits of pot.Now that I've mentioned it you'll see it now in every episode!
i do remember they forced him to get a new shirt in one episode. he had grabbed the one top of the pile it was clean but it ripped along the placket seam.
6:18 - John's "Excalibur" comment at Phil struggling to lift the geophys equipment had me cackling.
9 years ago or yesterday Time Team never ever disappoints.
i love the - bantering - that goes on between the team members. Including Tony Robinson...
I got such a surprise, thought I had viewed all the time team shows, but here is one I missed! What a treat!!! Love these shows!

"Hello, Time Team? We'd like you to find a palace that was replaced by our building. There's this 2 by 2 metre corner of our garden you're allowed to disturb, and you're welcome to dig anywhere you want in it."
😆
It's absurd! If Time Team showed up at my house I'd be like "Oh, it's under my living room? Well we better get that carpet out and bring in the jackhammers! You know it's concrete under there, right? Let me just move my house. You guys want some tea or coffee?"
😂❤
Why would they ever agree to dig a location with so many restrictions?
I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH!
I cried out for Phil's hat 😂 No! Not the hat! Aaah! R.I.P Phil's hat..
It didn’t damage the hat. Jesus.
Miss Mick, I managed to get attached to him - an ocean and decade away. He was truly a worthy character and I know his TT Peers really suffered his departure to NonPhysical.

Wow, those buildings are beautiful.
As soon as he said "and if there are any lawyers watching" I just KNEW Tony was going to say "there were no geraniums harmed in the making of this program!" But it still made me laugh.
I forget which episode it was, but Tony's tagline was: 'Oh, and we didn't find a single newt.'
Tony said the word 'frustrating at the end of Day One. Take a drink. :D
Tony and Phil are some cool cats. Hard to be in a bad mood watching this show.
@ 20:55 *I first thought they had a painting of Santa Clause on the wall, Left*

Hail, Sir Scott Craig. I despise what lawyers have become. Predators.
All these offices and lawyers and even an herb garden but not a rue bush in sight. Unless I missed it. Seems quite odd to me?
And in this Episode, lawyers defend the Rights of Geraniums, and Phil's feather becomes a target.

It was easier for them to dig on Royal Property then it is to dig on University. And people say it's the ridge Royal one percenters that are all the pains in the asses I say it's We the People who are the pain in the asses
Poor ol John Gator.. he spent a 20 yr career, roughly lol, saying how the ground isn't good for geophys. Maybe one, maybe two episodes he gets cocky about the results.. every other he cries. I exhale with lip flapping to see John saying I dunno I don't see anything the ground is too wet or too dry.
Tony couldn't tell the difference between geraniums and thistles.

No kidding. Kinda gross

hmbsit waloc,
She speaks with a non-British accent because she wasn't born in England. You can be a historian about Britain without being born British, you know. In fact, there are many British born historians who are recognized historians about America. Bill Bryson is American born and a recognized and celebrated writer about Britain - and it can go both ways. And there are many Anglo born historians who are experts on France, and many other places which are not anglophone.
Stop being so bloody parochial.
Nathaniel Harari Well said. I was on a walking tour in Lincoln, UK, and was, as usual, the only non-Brit (I'm American). One woman asked the guide which king met that awful end at the behest of his French queen. He said, "Oh, the one who had the poker . . . " She nodded. He thought it might have been one of the Richards but he wasn't certain. I politely suggested it was Edward II. I was ignored. They continued and debated that perhaps she was thinking it was one of the Henrys. Again, I quietly suggested Edward II. Again, I was ignored. They concluded that they could not remember which king was murdered so brutally. I smile to think they all went home that evening and looked it up and thought, "Damn American was right!"
Madeleine Brown Very nicely done! You made this American proud! I would have said the same thing. :D
Madeleine Brown Those British people ignoring you were ***** (expletive deleted). I come from Lincoln, I've a good mind to go back there and put that guide out of business by being better.
Matthew McVeagh Aw, thanks :) I try to remember not everyone is a history nerd like me (my office-mate says she finds my enthusiasm for history amusing and mystifying). And I LOVED Lincoln, went on many wonderful walks there & spent 6 hours inside that cathedral & many more inspecting the exterior. I think it knocked Durham Cathedral out of first place for my favorite. Definitely on the list for my next visit.
Madeleine Brown The cathedral *is* fantastic, Lincoln is generally great for its heritage and surviving architecture from older times. In the north of the city is the Northgate which is a still standing Roman gate from 1900 years ago under which cars still drive. I don't know of any equivalent of that in other British cities.
This episode is so lame. Why on earth are TT invited to dig there when only test pits are permitted?
Tony, just stop complaining!
Stop bellyaching about the tree
In the *UK* there is such a thing as a *Tree Protection Order* and damaging a tree covered by that is a prosecutable offence. Doing it in full view of a bunch of lawyers is a stupid offence.

Nobody seems to be too perturbed about Bridget Gallagher being part of Time Team and speaking with a thick New Zealand accent.
Marcus Johns Well. she's from the commonwealth and nobody will suspect her to be one of the renegades. ;-)
Marcus Johns Why the hell should they be perturbed? She knows her stuff like any of the others.
Marcus Johns ...Sorry I think I misunderstood where you were coming from! Somebody else complained about one of them having an American or Canadian accent.
My comment, you dumb piece of shit, was a reaction against hmbsit waloc's assertion that a British historian couldn't speak with an American/Canadian accent. Did you not read that far? It must be all of 10 comments below this.
Also, YOU are displaying your total cluelessness about what racism is, you fuckwit! It is not possible to be "racist" against somebody from New Zealand as they are, in general, not a race apart from other Europeans. They are all fairly recent migrants FROM Europe, dumbarse, so are not a different "race".
It might be possible to be "racist" against the Maori people as they are a separate, definable race from the white Europeans that settled in New Zealand. BUT, A) Gallagher doesn't identify herself as being of Maori heritage and B) it still wouldn't be possible for me to be "racist" towards her if she was because I AM!!
That's right, you dumb fuck. I am of Maori heritage. My father was a Maori, my mother was English and I grew up in NZ so fuck off with your babbling about racism. Have some idea what you are talking about before you open your stupid mouth again.
Fucking retards like you are a disgrace to education systems the world over.
@@marcusjohns5166 And so Mr. Johns are you.. Did your education include using the word "fuck"? It seems you don't know enough words to be able to write a complete sentence without it.
I wonder why archaeologists don’t wear trousers that fit - lots of spillover here.
By this point Tony Robinson has become an irksome oik with most of his input criticising others, and occasionally sucking up to them in narration added afterwards in order to try to right his wrongs. Shame the series deteriorated to this extent
The five purple intriguinly pray because fall neurobiologically soak next a threatening reason. numberless, profuse hope

how come a british historian speaks with an american accent ???
because she's an American (or Canadian, for that matter) ex-Pat...that doesn't preclude knowledge of British history...
Erin Maria she’s Canadian
hmbsit waloc problem being 🤨 I’m Canadian and had an American professor who came to U of T by way of Harvard who taught European Reformation history / theology - brains are brains notwithstanding accents
Did they ever burn that revolting sweat impregnated "hat" of Phill's and trim his bogie scoop fingernail on his little finger?They love to zoom in on the bogie scoop every time they do a close up when Phill's showing bits of pot.Now that I've mentioned it you'll see it now in every episode!
i do remember they forced him to get a new shirt in one episode. he had grabbed the one top of the pile it was clean but it ripped along the placket seam.
@@DAYBROK3 :-D And he said he wasn´t going to not wear a shirt when it was clean just for having been torn. Phil´s a gem.
Phil is a guitar player. Uses those nails to pick strings not boogers. 🙃
Guitar. Plays the darn guitar.
I cannot continue watching this video. Too much argumentation only after one trench. Too much ado about nothing
