I am jelous of the people of Britain to live over such ancient history! Herever they start digging, something ancient comes up! Love this show! Greeings from Canada!
But I guess North America has more than 20,000 years of indigenous history while the UK only has about 6000, since the last ice age :) so North Americas history is many times more ancient than the UK
@Row225 It is illegal to excavate native American graves here. It's a way to suppress the history. What would Britain know about its past if it was illegal to excavate achient graves? Not much...that is why we know so little about Native American history.
I miss time team so much. I’ve always been fascinated by archeology and British history, such a good show and big in my childhood. It needs to come back! ❤️
These Time Team episodes are the highlight of my week. Its so nice to see such a calming and interesting show + the nostalgia for pre-COVID times ♥ ♥ ♥
Absolutely Love Time Team! So fascinating and informative. You can’t get this sort educational program in the US. Cannot Thank You Enough for bringing back and airing these classics! This episode brings Wallace & Gromit to mind. 🧀
I am so glad I found Time Team and all the other work different team members have done. I am absolutely entertained and learning so much. Thank you from New York.
So glad the Time Team are back, i always thought this just touched on a much bigger story, might be a suggestion for the new series going forward in 2023... :)
People in charge pay attention this is what we want to watch. Presentation perfect and informative with out cutting quality. Haven't seen it since them.
This is one of the best TT episodes I've seen (and there's been a fair few good ones). The twists and turns, delivered by this exceptional group of experts was absolutely fascinating. Would have been a good candidate for a return visit...hint hint
...so grateful for finding this - it's become my absolute favorite series on the subject. As an ethnomusicologist by my own background, the revelations of the lives of our ancestors have been hugely illuminating for me. Best of all, every single person involved shows not only how the science is done, but displays the very highest professional integrity; I have fallen in love with all of the members of the team. Thank You all so much for helping an old musician keep his sanity in these chaotic times...
WOW what an episode, this is a literal dream site!! I watched most of this with my jaw gaping, more and more kept coming up, it just goes to show how ancient people were drawn to the sites of their ancestors, just as we are today
I'm watching these two and three times each (for now, that is). I so wish I could know some of these folks. Digging is not for the light-hearted or weak. Thanks everyone!
Not sure how many times I've watched all these uploads. Fascinating mix of the local residents being involved in their own history, the arts and the sciences. How can it get any better?
Growing up in rural Vermont, our neighbors were elderly people, a brother and sister born before 1900. Their mother was an English country girl. Those people had uncountable jars for Stilton cheese, as they never threw anything out. Their mother must have brought the love of Stilton with her.
Time Team was both informative and entertaining. What was a delight too was how the team members became so companionable with each other and endeared themselves to the audience. I always thought Henry was the cutest of the lot.
This episode is particularly pertinent for me as I used to live about one mile to the east of the site. Of course, I was blissfully unaware of any of this at the time. As a matter of interest, the sea-level contour ran approx. 100 metres to the south of my house, despite being 30 miles from the sea!
I always thought the Dutch were intelligent people who knew quality! Also, I lived and worked there and had a Dutch girlfriend when I was living in Spain.
Wonderful shows. We have good historical shows here in Germany but they would never produce one where people dig for a few days unsure of the outcome 😉. I'm so happy that I've found this!!
Puts me in mind of a hilarious episode of Yes Chef when the main character became a fanatic about using British cheeses. It was the first time I had heard of Stilton.
Ok, it's official. I'm hooked on this channel. Can't get enough and, can't get any work done when it's on. So, it's back to work and I'll save another episode for tonight. Cheers from Minnesota!! Where we make a lot of cheese!
So normally when I start watching these I like to have a basic understanding of the subject matter..80% of the time I already have the basic prerequisite knowledge to give me a pretty good understanding of the history they're trying to dig up. In this case I found myself thinking about the history of cheese.. very interesting. There's a story about a nomad traveling with milk in a bag made from a sheep's or cow's stomach during a warm day. The heat combined with the motion of traveling combined with the bacteria present in the stomach accidentally created the first known account of cheese... its stated the story is likely fiction but still interesting and entertaining.
@@twothreebravo she's nice, but a little bit staid. A tad vicar's daughter. Brigid Gallagher, on the other hand... I've never seen a woman wield a shovel quite like her!
This type of history in the ground is so foreign to us here in Australia. Prior to 1788 there was only a few isolated instances of Europeans here. There are shell middens and rock art dating back thousands of years, but no buildings, metal etc because our indigenous people were nomadic hunter gathers in a land of plenty. Love some British archaeology.
When you watch episodes like this where there is obviously more to tell with more work, does this actually happen sometimes? Is there a way of finding the digs that have then gone on to have more work done on them?
Sometimes, yes, but sadly not often (budgets). You can try searching on things like the Archaeological Data Service database, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like anything more has been done at this site (I'm not an expert though and have only done a very basic search).
There's very little research archaeology done in this country, just a handful of local societies with very limited scope, university departments research projects, or bodies like English Heritage working on their own sites. The majority of work is done as part of the planning process when sites are threatened by development, so unless someone plans to build a new cheese factory on the site its likely to get left largely untouched for future generations. Funding aside landowners generally don't like having archaeologists there and proper research digs can take many years to complete on big landscape sites like this. It would make a fantastic project if a university could get it funded in the future. Great thing is the archaeology isn't going anywhere.
grown up i n - farm country- i could cry when i see them all walking and digging around these newly growing, whatever it will be ( sugar beets?) field...
I love this episode! What I don’t understand (generally speaking) is where the soil covering the Roman and Anglo-Saxon layers came from. In this instance there is suggestion of an accredited layers of alluvial or marsh sediments.

"How long has cheese had a *roll* in Stilton's history..." No wonder Tony's trying not to laugh - made my day!
Yes because no gram of Stilton is produced there.
That ending just tells you this needs to be brought back. TV gold.

@Row225 that's not entirely correct, Britain has history of that age as well its just not as easy to find, life was here however for 10s of millenia
@@Row225ever heard of Doggerland and Neanderthal people?
@Row225 It is illegal to excavate native American graves here. It's a way to suppress the history.

and no mobile phones and old style real cameras
Every body is so passionate and knowledgeable. The friendly competition and enthusiasm between the various disciplines is an absolute inspiration. 🤩
Absolutely Love Time Team!
So fascinating and informative.

CHEESE, GROMIT!
Bit peckish for some Wensleydale
@@RatelHBadger Are you referring to me? Mister Wensleydale. Owner of the cleanest cheeseshop in the district.
@@omikronweapon Well it certainly isn't contaminated by cheese...
Always glad to educate our ex-colonies :)

People in charge pay attention this is what we want to watch. Presentation perfect and informative with out cutting quality. Haven't seen it since them.
They already nuked it in the last seasons because they know what you need to watch... or at least they think they do.
This is one of the best TT episodes I've seen (and there's been a fair few good ones). The twists and turns, delivered by this exceptional group of experts was absolutely fascinating. Would have been a good candidate for a return visit...hint hint
These shows have brightened up my mostly solitary time in lockdown. Thank you all so much. 💜💙
So great to still be able to spend time listening to Mick Aston 😊 and the ever excitable Francis Prior and the team ... fab 😊

@@julanesutton9626 yes our Phil is a accomplished guitarist, good spotting was it the long fingernails of his right hand lol.
@@katerinakemp5701 hi, yes and also coupled with closely trimmed finger nails on his left hand.
Watching Time Team brings makes me feel so much childhood nostalgia
The English countryside in summer time is such a beautiful place
🌝
WOW what an episode, this is a literal dream site!! I watched most of this with my jaw gaping, more and more kept coming up, it just goes to show how ancient people were drawn to the sites of their ancestors, just as we are today
Since I found this channel I've binged watch this program!! This is such a wonderful program ❤ South Carolina USA
Should be one of these in the US

♥️🇬🇧😀 I'd forgotten how captivating these progs were. I learned so much. Proper experts. x
Thank you so much for uploading these! Nothing calms me down between zoom classes like a bit of time team. You're keeping me sane!!
As Monty Python once said, Blessed are the cheesemakers.
I am so thankful for every episode of time team as I have done archaeology in Israel digging down to a Roman road
I wish they did episodes in Israel
Look up Achaia Kohn Tavor. Hes just posted about digging at Bethesda in Israel. Also look up Sergio and Rhoda in Israel. Great channel
@@Tawadeb know the channel
A quiet episode, but great fun none the less. Fun to see this much of Helen in an episode.
Not sure how many times I've watched all these uploads. Fascinating mix of the local residents being involved in their own history, the arts and the sciences. How can it get any better?
AmI the only person who enjoys these so much they forget to tab the thumbs-up button?
I love that Mick wasn't afraid to wear colors.
How long has cheese had a roll in Stilton...thanks Tony! 😂
Even he was cracking up lol.
...and now I'm craving a piece of cheese in a roll......pity there's no Stilton in the house....
He said role, not roll...
@@richardharrold9736 Nah he said roll. With tomato and a bit of lettuce 🥬 👀😉

I like these complex stories. TT is the highlight of my week, as it was in the days when I watched it on TV.
Followed by Scrapheap Challenge.

Congrats time team classics on reaching 100k subscribers well done 👏👏👏
It would have been better if they had 100K Patreon subscribers, though... ;-)
@@norwegiangadgetman That would be good i must admit 👍
@@norwegiangadgetman a tenth of that would be a grand success. :)
You all have the world's best job and you make excellent work of it. Thank you for including us in the journeys, along with you.
What a fantastic episode! It's digs like these that keep me up at night wondering what else is going on at that site.
This is just a great show. More please.
We're working on it!
Oh my Goddess! Those pots he made are absolutely breathtaking. 😍
Awesome episode and missing Mick Aston
Freshly addicted to this show.
I especially liked this episode. (And I especially love Stilton cheese with pear slices!)
This episode is particularly pertinent for me as I used to live about one mile to the east of the site. Of course, I was blissfully unaware of any of this at the time.
As a matter of interest, the sea-level contour ran approx. 100 metres to the south of my house, despite being 30 miles from the sea!
I have always loved this series and the sheer joy of discovery upon discovery warms the cockles of my heart. Bless them all xxx
Fabulous finds. 😊This is a great show. Way to go, Tony and Team !!😊
A local one for me! Can’t wait to see this again, or the interview afterwards
Most enjoyable episode.
This was also on the Dutch tv when i was young, love it!
I always thought the Dutch were intelligent people who knew quality! Also, I lived and worked there and had a Dutch girlfriend when I was living in Spain.
I love that Tony couldn't get through the intro without a few giggles. XD
Come on, Tony, Stilton has very prestigious cheese.
I had to chuckle at that. And since that was the best take, he must have really been busting up through the other ones XD
Watching TT is like having a cozy cuppa & chocolate biscuit with an old friend (dunking optional - the biscuit, not the old friend 😉)
It just so enjoyable this series and the banter is so nice that, despite i dont like digging, i wish i was part of the team
Wonderful shows. We have good historical shows here in Germany but they would never produce one where people dig for a few days unsure of the outcome 😉. I'm so happy that I've found this!!
Herzliche willkommen!
love your shows . watch as much as i can. so much british history....
Puts me in mind of a hilarious episode of Yes Chef when the main character became a fanatic about using British cheeses. It was the first time I had heard of Stilton.
Wensleydale
Great personalities, everyone doing their best just like people there were for thousands of years.
Phil and his shorts. Love.
Ok, it's official. I'm hooked on this channel. Can't get enough and, can't get any work done when it's on. So, it's back to work and I'll save another episode for tonight. Cheers from Minnesota!! Where we make a lot of cheese!
Beautiful Drawings from the ID artist 😊❤ Thankyou Time Team❤❤❤
Mick passed away ( STRIPEY JUMPER GUY)
VICTOR the ARTIST has passed away
IAN the DIGGER DRIVER has also passed away
..RIP...
Yes very SAD. They are ancestors now. Their spirits will greet those they gave a life to.🥰💜💜💜
Also Mark Corney passed away at the end of 2023. RIP
great to see Raksha back
Love this episode, even if it is a bit cheesy.
Still, tons more where that came from 😊
@@LordoftheBadgers Yes unfortunately, how depressing!
This is a wonderful program! Very intelligent and humorous ! Great editing as well!
Would be great to revisit this site and see what else might be in the ground. It sure has potential.
It's ridiculous how happy I am when I find one of these I havent seent yet

And more than possibly true!
it doesn't get much better than this episode - this site just keeps on giving 👍
Tony's giggles at the beginning, I love it
What a wonderful history Britain has! Just dirty with archaeology.
I could listen to Helen all day...she's dreamy!
Absolutely!
@@twothreebravo she's nice, but a little bit staid. A tad vicar's daughter. Brigid Gallagher, on the other hand... I've never seen a woman wield a shovel quite like her!
This was easily the best tv program for 15 years or so. Still brilliant now
Bravo TT another fantastic episode.
This episode is absolutely epic!
I don't remember seeing this in the first go-round, and I do believe it's probably my favorite episode so far.
Great show! Blessed are the cheese makers.
Please, do an episode on CulIoden moor, Scotland! It is about time! love you, time team
Many Scots, Irish and some Welsh, however, do not like the publicity given to England
I LOVE TIME TEAM!!!!
Hell of an episode if I do say.
Thanks for posting

Mick AND Francis!! It's like a crossover episode from different series!
Enjoying watching all these again. Only recently found this page. Interesting crop mark at 22:24 in the near dark green field ..
grown up i n - farm country- i could cry when i see them all walking and digging around these newly growing, whatever it will be ( sugar beets?) field...
Although a Yorkshireman and should be praising Wallace & Gromit's Wensleydale, I love Stilton cheese!
Finally - an episode where the intro theme has been kept! I've missed it so.
Great episode!
It's hard to choose but this is probably my favourite episode ever.
What kind of arrangement is made with the farmers on these digs? It is interesting that there was a crop in the fields on this episode.
25 min. in and no Monty Python cheese shop reference? Tony? Don't let us down... :)
Something tells me, Tony is more a Black Adder guy.
Tony Robinson at his best ... fantastic!
Congrats on 100k.
We all just Love Time Team 😊❤

Awesome mystery solving skills going on here.
I'd love to see you go mudlarking on the River Thames!
I loved this episode, thanks! BTW, the link to the commentary is wrong; it links to the commentary for a different episode.
really enjoyed this episode so thanks!
are Phil's trowels in the British Museum?
along with The Hat...
Thank you so much bringing this back during this horid time
If it hasn't happened yet the beautiful artwork needs to be published as a book.
Forget whodunnit, this is whatwasit? Brilliant episode.
I'm sooooo hungry for a bit of Stilton cheese with a little port!
Me too. A great combination, but I like Wensleydale too!
Cheese makes everything better
