Victor is such a skilled artists, he seems to be the most capable fine arts person I know. He works with such a wide swath of media, from metal to paints to pottery.
@@michaellindsey1543 that is what i actually wanted to write,but than i saw your reply. no need for me to add anything. He is now drawing the angels and maybe HIM himself?
Extremely. He's one of the most underrated people of this program. He does such amazing and exquisite work in so *many* different mediums. And he helps bring these various periods and histories to life for us.
I love how Stewart “sees” things that others are unable to. He pulls everything into perspective and puts it into context for all to understand, Stewart is TT unsung hero!
I have to say that when it comes to enthusiasm and sheer enjoyment of the excavation no one can top Mr Phil Harding. I would love to learn from that man. Even to meet him would be the highlight of my life. He makes archeology exciting and engrossing
Breaks my heart to see all that 19th century pottery just chucked away. I could do sooooooo many amazing art projects with that. Wish I had been there during this excavation. Would have taken the lot off their hands happily.
Try eBay, you might find some people selling off ceramic goods that they no longer want or don't appreciate the value in. It would be terrific if you made new art projects from vintage pottery.
Time team episodes never lose their intreag or my interest in the amazing short dives in to history. Thank you time team for years of teaching me about European history.
Robin Bush and his head of all the history is amazing, and such a shame that he, like Mick, is no longer with us. So much history I wish I could just tap into...
About all those pottery fragments, they can sell the pieces they don't want to display to museum customers, to help support the museum. That would be a better souvenir than a picture of a pot on a postcard.
I'd pay if they laid that all out in a room and let people try to reassemble the dishes themselves. That would itch my OCD just right. Like untangling Christmas lights.
Greg B that's a great idea! The left over bits would make amazing frames, back splashes or what have you...and you could say " oh, that? It's Wedgwood " in a blasé voice...
i only can say hat off and off once more and again to the late Victor Ambrus. there is not much he could not do with a pen,pencil, crayon or brush or CAD on a piece of paper, ceramics or computer screen. i think he is teaching the angels now how to paint!
This is one of my favourite episodes, I think because there is an element of nostalgia in it for me. As a young teen interested in archaeology (living in the Western Cape, South Africa), I came across several thoroughly ruined mud-brick buildings on a local farm and began digging around them, finding pottery, glass, metal...items of all sorts, including a UK enamelled WWII lapel badge. I remember learning about hallmarks/makersmarks through trying to identify ceramic shards, piecing back together what I could, writing my little amateurish notes on what I found, trying to research the history of the area and jotting down what I thought the buildings might be. With hindsight of course it wasn't good archaeological practice, although archaeology is rather lacking here compared to what it is in the UK, both in terms of how much there is to find and how much research is carried out. But those days of delving into that little corner of history are still some of my fondest childhood memories. And I hold out a vague hope that someday I might be able to contribute some little bit to a formal dig in that area.
this is absolutely my favorite show ever. So sad its ending right after I found it. Thank u so much Raijer for having and sharing all of these...they r great!
A new addition to the show is the measurement of curatorial pulse rates as tony slides Wedgewood's significant rares around like curling rocks. Lub dub....lub dub.... Lubdublubdublubdub beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep flatlined before the 8 minute mark.
@@ELCADAROSA Agreed. He is a phenomenal artist with a remarkable ability to envision the past based on what is known. Also unsung, totally different skill: the excavator with the heavy equipment!
All that lovely pottery tossed away! I know that there are folks who can take those broken bits and turn them into nice jewellery, and also use them in colourful mosaic topped tables and dressers. Well, as Georg Carlin would say; You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
That was my thought when I first watched this show. My crafting heart was like, I could do sooooooo many amazing art projects with that pottery vs filling a landfill with it
@janis vogel : _"the uk is the asshole of the world.the english are all criminals."_ You do realize that by typing that you're being an a-hole, right? You can also add being a hypocrite to that of course. And if you don't agree, then you can also add an utter lack of self-awareness as well. Also, _nationalism_ is essentially the same thing as _racism_ or any other form of _bigotry._
Wedgewood was a genius ceramist. Both in engineering and artistry! I was a designer in a ceramic factory as well as studied at University. There is much chemistry involved. ❤💜❤
I really like these modern time team episodes its a nice change from the roman and medievil episodes hope there are more of them. personally id like to see them did up the original shelley factory
Fascinating stuff. Wedgwood was one of Charles Darwin's grandfathers and a leading member of the Birmingham Lunar Society, along with James Watt, Matthew Boulton and Joseph Priestley. He probably knew Ben Franklin. The dig site is close to the fictional site of the Darius Clayhanger steam printery in Arnold Bennett's "Clayhanger" novel - a realistic and somewhat depressing tome of "Bursley". Clayhanger Street is just around two corners, named for the fictional characters. It's a tragedy that next to no pottery is made in Stoke-on-Trent now. all the great names like Clarice Cliff, Meakin, Doulton are gone.
So an old amateur antiquarian went about Burslem making caches of pottery for the future. Enoch Wood b. 1759. They found a cache outside of the Town Hall in 1938. In 1974 they found another in the foundation of St. Paul's church!
6:59 they call that teapot that Tony gets in trouble for picking up by the handle a pineapple but I’ll be damned if that’s pineapple that’s an ear of corn. 🌽
Omg, i was cringing at all that pottery being dumped around like that. I would have been grabbing every piece! Thats crazy how it was just all stacked in the ground like it was for the most part.
You know the saying, if you want to make an omelette you have crack eggs. They wanted to know what is below. And it is at least saved by photographs, written documentation and this episode. Maybe they kept even a piece. But quite honestly, preserving everything would be a dream, but quite impossible, since everything is worth saving, once it is outdated. A few decades later it becomes an antique item. Now even more quickly than a hundred years ago.
I would imagine there's a lot more Victorian-era tile flooring around than anything prior to that - so it's not like they are destroying a piece of history that nobody will ever see again (except in the context, which is what they are recording before removing it). it bothered me too - especially since it was so relatively intact, but you can bet everybody on that team has gone through similar hesitations earlier in their careers before getting used to seeing the "bigger picture".
CologneCarter Archaeologists are always complaining about lack of funding no? I'm sure some art collectors/assorted rich people might buy it and even be happy to support archaeology with their purchase.
I live near Limoges which, of course, is famous for its porcelain. The nearest pottery to me has a massive pile of broken china near the main road, presumably as an advertisement for its products, though I`m not so sure that it`s a good advertisement! ;-)
+VIIStar I know...what part of don't touch shit didn't he understand? yes, he didn't grab the handle but, she was letting him know they didn't want him touching shit.
highonimmi Ugh, as a sculptor it's one of my biggest pet peeves! You specifically tell people not to touch and they'll touch while staring you right in the eye! >0
thanks for all these uploads there great sounds is good as well somebody who finally knows how to upload somthing WOW lol thank you there are ppl who is ! and listen or read hehehe!
I haven't seen all the comments. There are too many. So, I will chance this. I don't know whether this is an idiom about being poor in the UK but it certainly is here in the USA. "I haven't got a pot to pee in." I'm sure a person could piece one together out of all those pottery shards.
Breaking up Victorian floors to get to the older period below. It could be a lot worse though. Ever visited the Roman Forum in Rome? During Mussolini's reign, the entire city block the Roman Forum was under, was dug up and demolished. Over a 1,000 years of archaeology destroyed to dig up the classical Roman past.
'I eat my peas with honey; I've done it all my life. It makes the peas taste funny, But it keeps them on the knife.' Amazing now I know where this poem came from and what it was attributed to. I must have a little giggle though because it is generally thought to be ignorant people who did this. Thanks guys!
There were so many ceramic bits coming out of that trench, that they could have easily given a piece to each spectator as a keepsake, and had more than their fare share left over to sift through and save for museums.
There used to be a lot of terrible respiratory diseases back in the day when the kilns were in operation, particularly for the people who worked in the industry but there was often a general cloud of smoke that settled all over the Potteries. You can see it in pictures from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
This is the third or fourth time I've seen this episode, and every time that woman snaps at Tony, "Don't pick It up by the handle," I wince. How utterly snotty and tactless. And yes, I know it was an irreplaceable object, but still....
Hope you've found something else to wince about since then! The lady obviously did NOT expect Tony to make that childish move. Clearly, he shouldn't have.
She neither snotty or tactless. Having worked in an art museum with a significant ceramic collection, l know firsthand how passionate the curators were about the items in their charge. Tony should have known better and handled it with more care.
I admit it's gone rapidly downhill - or down bank as we say in Stoke - but hell on earth is a bit of an exaggeration. There are worse places. If you'd tried an oatcake it might've made you feel a bit better.
Thanks to excessively high sound level on background music with heavy percussion, I was unable to hear what the factory worker called his extruder. It sounded like “dog fox”. Anyone know?. Shame about intrusive music tracks.
laughs, the women freaks when tony grabs the 250 year old pot by the handle like a .60 coffee cup. laughs. tony! you got lucky it did not snap. would of been quite the drama. :P cheers.
What the Brita call a car park, we Tanks call a parking lot. Not only that, we seem to agree with the Brita that a car parking lot is "better" than anything it replaces.
If someone could help me ID the Red, Blue and Yellow rain jacket Stewart is wearing in this episode I would really appreciate it. I think it looks cool, but I can't find one like it after hours of googly-ing :D He doesn't start wearing it until about 9:57 after it's raining pretty well.
I found out it's a Berghaus jacket... who by the way are still making outdoors / camping type outerwear. Some people might think it's out of fashion, but really, when you look at what they have today, it hasn't changed much. just the colours and colour patterns. I think they are pretty cool, especially if you live in England, where having a rain resist jacket is pretty much a requirement lol. I think they called this one the Velum Extrem. You can still get them off Ebay. I got one off ebay after I posted that hehe. Everyone seems to admire it. Now, all I have to do is wear it, and stand around using the word "MediEEEEeeeval" a lot, and people think I'm an Archaeologist.
I thought that frumpy moo was going to bludgeon Tony there when he dared touch a teacup! She might have warned him before. She deserved that scare...the most exciting day she has had in years....
highonimmi I know, but you have seen all the things passed out & about on Time Team. It seems that there would have been a debriefing before if she was that freaky over the touch.
damaged05170 in America we would have done so....I will have to defer to you for what is customary in the uk....I will say, I freaking died when I read "frumpy moo."
... Considering a carefully calculated risk to blasting away HMS Curatoress's Romulan Commanderette shoulder pads, and thusly dooming a squadron of fuel-starved Spitfires desperately needing landing strips, that naff blue & white pressed marzipannish Wedgwood tat has all the aesthetic appeal of unnaturally coloured creamy pastel mints. Also resolutely unfancied is that tacky ceramic dog statuary being hilariously flung about by Michael Douglas and Lady Kathleen of Turner in *War Of The Roses.*
Hi Thomas: yes, after years of cheap imitations, it looks tacky to us now. But imagine the effect if you had only ever seen red earthenwares, or yearned after incredibly expensive imported porcelain. Imagine only knowing those, and suddenly seeing that bright blue and white detailed pottery. It would be the equivalent of seeing a spectacularly new piece of software or an outstandingly original car design today: it was a literal game-changer.
When the show first began, they used to show the background of each person. Carenza worked for English Heritage, the government agency in charge of maintaining British historical sites. She is an expert archaeologist.
David B needs to get a haircut. That cocker spaniel look went out around 1974. He'd be a decent looking fellow if he got a skillful barber, instead of resembling a skinny housewife with a bad perm.
Nice to see real professionals working together on a serious dig.....Mick had to send Carenza off to do other things. This stuff is way over her head. She risked looking stupid on this dig. Besides, I don't think the professionals would have tolerated her normal obnoxious behavior anyways, like the rest of Time Team does.
Victor is such a skilled artists, he seems to be the most capable fine arts person I know. He works with such a wide swath of media, from metal to paints to pottery.
He was also quite amazing at adapting to the times and was equally adept at using an ancient quill to a modern computer. . .

He also illustrates fantasy literature, including Tolkien.

Who knew that I would be so fascinated by an episode about a pottery factory. This was simply extraordinary.
I used to have a full Wedgewood dinner set but, sadly, I only have one serving pot/bowl left, without its lid. It`s nice table ware, for sure.
Victor's work is always amazing.
Wishing we had shows half this good in America! Enjoyed very much the history of Josiah Wedgwood.

A lot of colorful but broken pieces have been used to decorate the outside of flowerpots; also tiny pieces are used in jewelry.
The guys who work those "Cats" are VERY skilled!
One of the best Time Teams, well done all concerned!
The continuity of culture - century upon century of potters in Burslem - is heartwarming. The TT program is truly wonderful. I love it! :D

He doesn't start wearing it until about 9:57 after it's raining pretty well.
It's about 16 years out of fashion, who knows how long before that episode he bought it and I seriously doubt it is any high fashion brand.
Stewart had hair too!

I thought that frumpy moo was going to bludgeon Tony there when he dared touch a teacup! She might have warned him before. She deserved that scare...the most exciting day she has had in years....
+damaged05170 frumpy moo....timeless. it is customary not to touch priceless pieces unless specifically given the green light. it's just common sense.
highonimmi I know, but you have seen all the things passed out & about on Time Team. It seems that there would have been a debriefing before if she was that freaky over the touch.
damaged05170 in America we would have done so....I will have to defer to you for what is customary in the uk....I will say, I freaking died when I read "frumpy moo."
highonimmi I'm American but my husband was English. Frumpy moo is a NICE way to put it!
Oh. Lord. That monster in the yellow jacket. Scary!
... Considering a carefully calculated risk to blasting away HMS Curatoress's Romulan Commanderette shoulder pads, and thusly dooming a squadron of fuel-starved Spitfires desperately needing landing strips, that naff blue & white pressed marzipannish Wedgwood tat has all the aesthetic appeal of unnaturally coloured creamy pastel mints.
Also resolutely unfancied is that tacky ceramic dog statuary being hilariously flung about by Michael Douglas and Lady Kathleen of Turner in *War Of The Roses.*
... I shot a black panther in my pajamas this morning. What he was doing in my pajamas, I'll nevah know ...
Hi Thomas: yes, after years of cheap imitations, it looks tacky to us now. But imagine the effect if you had only ever seen red earthenwares, or yearned after incredibly expensive imported porcelain. Imagine only knowing those, and suddenly seeing that bright blue and white detailed pottery. It would be the equivalent of seeing a spectacularly new piece of software or an outstandingly original car design today: it was a literal game-changer.
Authentic Jasperware is really beautiful! The lighter color is slightly translucent, and it's available in other base colors than blue 😏
I guess the dig at 53.045866,-2.197248
The pot bank.
A shame to destroy this floor
Well if they find any pottery chards .... They will know when and where it came from...ha. Interesting, but it might seem a waste of their talents.
Recycle!!!!!!
Oh my gosh! I just saw your comment! I won’t even say his name. To me, it’s “that person in the White House”. I’m with you, sister
For God's sake, Carenza, give up the floor to the experts once in a while.
I guess it was too cold for you to go out and yell at traffic today?
She IS one of the experts. You must not have watched the show carefully.
It's worth saying it again: Carenza IS one of the experts.
When the show first began, they used to show the background of each person. Carenza worked for English Heritage, the government agency in charge of maintaining British historical sites. She is an expert archaeologist.
David B needs to get a haircut. That cocker spaniel look went out around 1974. He'd be a decent looking fellow if he got a skillful barber, instead of resembling a skinny housewife with a bad perm.
Nice to see real professionals working together on a serious dig.....Mick had to send Carenza off to do other things. This stuff is way over her head. She risked looking stupid on this dig. Besides, I don't think the professionals would have tolerated her normal obnoxious behavior anyways, like the rest of Time Team does.
Sorry, but have you ever noticed that your comments about Carenza become ssoooo boring?
@@nachtschadedoggerbank1089 - Nah, my comments aren't boring, they triggered you didn't they, they also trigger feminists.
@@nachtschadedoggerbank1089 -- it's every episode. Some people write literature, others help mankind, ou812i4got complains about Carenza.
hmm pottery from 1800's.. Next!
Oh Victorian teapots.. Yawn 🤭, I want cannonballs and swords!
