Time.Team.S16-E07 Toga Town: Caerwent, South Wales
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มี.ค. 2013
- Tony Robinson and the Team investigate Caerwent in South Wales, one of Britain's best kept secrets. Apparently just a small village well off any main road, it is in fact the country's best preserved Roman town. And amazingly many of its 2000-year-old secrets have yet to be discovered.
Lol Phil is hilarious! He's the man that knows his archeology and Stuart knows his landscape! Miss Mic! Awesome to see him in these videos! I love The Time Team!
Yes, he died so young. What a loss.
Phil's always good for a laugh, what a likeable fella!
Dame,how I love this show, even after 30 years of loyalty, I still watch faithfully.
This one was hysterical! Loved it!
I love how Phil's hat and toga mix would fit well even in Roman times, a hick rustic Roman coming into the local town for some business at the basilica
*The Team had the most endearing Personalities.* Have to give it to the Brits - no one does Cirmstance and Lineage/History like They do!
*Its a Stellar Series!*

Murfreesboro here :)
The ending was so funny! Apparently Phil likes his beer! So to have him make that kind of speech, was hilarious! LOL
Definitely likes his ale that one
Phil's Latin 🤣🤣 Such a great program; hard to express how much comfort it's brought me. Thanks Reijer for all the uploads.
I live 5 minuets from here :) pretty cool to see and watch this
I'm curious...do you know what the plan is? Are they going to continue to uncover the ruins?
Just discovered this series a few week ago. Fascinated by the variety of history and archeology of the British Isles.
This show has good chemistry and flow so I see why it was so popular. That Latin contest at the end was a humorous touch and I just knew Phil would be victorious! LOL

Tony: [gesturing the trench] "This is what we found: Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Phil Harding. Rubble."
LMAO
Victor Ambrose=genius artist extraordinaire!
+RonApP SF Have you ever notice how almost all of his male characters look like Stewart? Eerie!
Barnaby ap Robert, that is not exactly true. I have seen him use all of the male characters (especially Phil) in the Time Team at one time or another.
@@lameesahmad9166 He especially loves to depict Mick Aston as a monk. Given that Aston was a vocal agnostic whose archaeological specialty was medieval religious sites, especially pilgrimage destinations, such as sacred wells and springs, as well as places that boasted relics.
@RonApP SF Check your local library. He has done a great deal of amazing illustrations, especially for children's books.
My gran made "buzz saws" for me when I was little, and I have made them for my kids. ❤❤❤
Thamks so much for posting.
Phil is such an awesome hilarious guy.
Magnitudo semper celebrentur.
(Non audes dicere Ooooh aaar)
Et respondit Phil "Vae, puto deus fio"
Greatness will always be celebrated.
(don't you dare say oooh aaar)
And Phil answered "Woe is me. I think I'm turning into a god."
Laude!!! Laude!!! Applause!!! Applause!!!
(cachinnant/giggle)
Jokes aside. I like Phil and I know a lot of other people do as well. He seems such an ordinary unpretentious fellow and yet he is an exceptionally intelligent and well educated individual. I love his colloquialisms and his fun team spirit. What I really like about him is that (normally) no matter how poor his trench is he puts in the extra mile just to make sure that he has not missed anything potentially good. (even if occasionally he 'loses his rag' with Stewart, Tony or Mike) You have to admit the whole team 'Hits the Mark'. Without Vincent, Mike, Tony, Phil, Ian, John, Guy, Matt and the ladies the show will collapse. I believe that is exactly what happened at the demise of Mike. R.I.P.
Lamees Ahmad RIP Mick Aston.
I would love to see them completely rebuild the town into a living history museum that people could walk through and get hands on history.
start, by donating a couple of Millions... and you might even get a plaque somewhere with your name on it...
NO NEED, IF YOU WANT TO SEE A COMPLETE ROMAN CITY JUST GO TO ROME...THEY HAVE ALL OF THAT, BECAUSE ALL ROMAN TOWNS WAS MADE WITH THE SAME PLAN, SO IN ANY ROMAN COLONIES YOU CAN FIND ALMOST THE SAME STYLE OF BUILDINGS AND LAYOUT. JUST GO TO ROME OR POMPEII...YOU CAN REALLY FEEL HOW THE ROMAN LIVE BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS STILL THERE LIKE THE ROMAN JUST LEFT YESTERDAY.
I know this is old and I've seen it before but it is so funny and a good dig too.
Im american and this show has me completely fascinated with british history
Wow. I'm glad I came back into these digs again. Been enjoying the mudlarkers on the Thames. So much history underneath the surface in the UK. Lovin it .
The ending was awesome! Go Phil!
Phil at the end though!! 😂😂😂
A really good episode! And I love Phil personality! :)
I have such a crush on Phil. His laugh makes me giggle.
Watching Tony walking through expressing confusion, and all I can think is that he needs a cunning plan.
Phil in his toga...and grotty , old, sweat-stained hat! LOL!
He reminds me of the old character from Grace and Favor
A certain mr.moleturd! Lol
@@bobbyhood101 me too!!
Tony is a treasure. I hope the alien anthropologists find him in a thousand years and admit they are perplexed.
The new presenters are wonderful. Very positive.
"Nothing, nothing, nothing, Phil Harding, Ruble."
That was so much fun!!!
Loved Raksha, Bridgit and Hellen, Matt, Jackie, and Neil as well
Loved it! Speeches were excellent :)
Magnificent, ThankYou for sharing.
I like to think that at least one Romano-Briton was wearing a hat like Phil's 🙂
NAH NO HATS AND NO PANTS, ITS ONLY FOR BARBARIAN XD.
I'd like to see some knife makers make a copy of that pocket knife.
We went to the Caerleon bit and it is a great place...
On google translate the English word "spur" can be translated to "saillie" in French. For archaelogical purposes it seems to be extremely powerful and accuract use of language. On your program S16-E07 Toga Town: Caerwent, South Wales, the use of "spur": a thing that projects or branches off from a main body, in particular.
"The gallery formed a spur jutting off the main building and was entered at its eastern end through the door that had not been walled up after Elizabeth's visit.
Also, religious buildings can be described along these lines, Regards
Wonderful show !
Incredible team if ever there was.
1 of my favourite episodes. Thank you :)

RIP Mick.
dfcvda I don’t like to think he’s dead. 😢 What a really delightful human and he so loved the history of his country.
@@trishayamada807 Well at least we have Time Team to remember him. I bet the whole crew showed up at the funeral.
👍🏻
It didn’t rain!
I don't believe in it.

Sherry Elliott a first! 😂
@@bokhans Absolutely, for a dig in Wales.
Et Brutus, et Julius, et Victor Ambrus! Lmaoq

They sure make alot of assumptions, but hey it sure is interesting. Love this show.
Thanks for posting.
Archaeology is just the latest assumptions, some good some bad.
Somehow I don’t believe an advanced culture invented so many things and failed to invent a trash can. 28:00
Leopararouen; You recently commented about Phil sometimes losing his accent. At about 9:00 (a little after) he does it for just a few seconds. :-)

@@jimwalker3808 Yep, All items that people who don't live in the EU just can't buy. ...
Not to mention introducing concrete and central heating. Especially that last one was very, very needed in Britain.
@@flitsertheo A fire in the middle of the roundhouse was good enough for my father and it's good enough for me.
What’ve the Romans ever done for us?
26:03 I've observed that generally; it seems often that archaeologists get together, maybe argue a bit, then someone prevails and whatever their theory is goes into the historical record as accepted fact.
They couldn't have a "chip shop". Potatoes hadn't been introduced yet.
maybe they deep fried turnips?
how about deep fried eel instead of chips?
That bit of metal could be a tool for removing fish hooks from the fishes mouth.
I LOVE IT!
I was a quite perplexed when Tony said that Mick Aston "hated" anything Roman, which Mick even confirmed, saying he wasn't "keen" on Romans, because when one watches earlier episodes, such at Turkdean Roman Villa, Mick was incredibly enthusiastic when seeing the crop marks from the helicopter and subsequent Geophysical excavations ! Not until this episode could one ever get the impression that Mick "hated" the Romans in any way. Okay, he was obviously a specialist for post-Roman archaeology, but these remarks seemed entirely out of place considering the previous work Mick did so successfully with Time Team excavating excellent Roman sites. 😕
I did wonder why he said that too, i never got the impression before mick hated anything roman!
@@QWERTY-ri5yw
It was a peculiarly untypical remark, not only that he said so himself but also that Tony confirmed it. As I said, that was not the impression I got when watching so many Time Team "Roman Digs" with Mick Aston enthusiastically participating and obviously loving every moment. He could have fooled me if he really did "hate everything Roman", but there you are. I would have loved to have been able to talk to him about that remark, but that was not to be.
@@SNP-1999 His favorite was medieval churches and monastaries (spelling?). I think he got in the mood of the dig when there were good findings to be seen when they were digging for something else.
@@minimaker5600 _Monasterirs._ He was totally in his element on the *Mull* dig.
A Roman version of Playmobile :)
All the negative comments about this episode brings to mind a sagely quote, " those who cannot do criticize ".
When here on Wednesday and went to Caerleon ,but what is shocking is its all open and the fort site at Caerleon is being vandalized by local thugs and smashing the stone work off and using them to make fire pits in the ruins ,
@alanrtment porter Story here: www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/roman-ruins-caerleon-police-gwent-16249001
So universal, so sad.
"blue oyster club" in Wales!
Where does all the soil come from that covers these sites ?
alanrtment porter absolutely amazing.
@@tphvictims5101 - Not to mention the decayed organic matter over the millennia.
I'm surprised that after 1700 years there wasn't a lot more soil on top of the archaeology.
@@gregb6469 - Very true. It has surprised me since I started watching this series how shallow most of it is.
@@daneclark3161 I wonder if some sites get filled in with what the next settlement has to displace, or farmers evening out fields, and such. And in other cases people just took what they could of stones from abandoned places, and again the farmers threw some dirt over it to expand their fields. But I'm just guessing.
So, when the Roman's slapped their thigh, did they exclaim: "Welp, I s'pose!!" ?

Production began in June 2010, and filming took place in London, Manchester, Caerwent, Liverpool, and Los Angeles. The film was commercially successful, grossing over $370 million worldwide. Critics particularly praised Evans' performance, the film's depiction of its 1940s time period, and Johnston's direction. Two sequels titled Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War were released in 2014 and 2016 respectively.
... and all those movies sucked
All so good but always irritates me the commercial three day limit for thousands of years of history.
Neil sounds like he could have been on The Young Ones!
Mick,Dr.Rainbow!
Always thought he needed a rainbow pointed hat😂
On Google Maps you can see the Roman walls and how big the area is inside, then switch to Street view where you can see how tall the walls are still.
if you were to tie Neil's hands behind his back, he would be totally lost
That boundary is not a rectangle. Has anyone noticed that no one pounced on Tony when he called it a rectangle? The term "conspicuous by its absence" comes to mind.
It's a near rectangle, and seems to have taken into account some natural feature without sacrificing surface to perfectly square things up. Romans were practical if nothing else.
That buzzer thing needs two holes to work , one hole isn't enough .
I must say, the saxons doesn't strike me of an advancement of life in britain...
Tony with Stewart: he pulls a line out, and then says 'that's really square!' No, it's just a point somewhere away from the start. To be square, you'd need another line at right angles.
There was one Stewart had already set out the first point and when Tony joined him they were at point 2 Tony ran to point 3
Phil in Toga > Phil in short-shorts
I'd love to join a dig 😢
Pronunciation of some UK placename/ towns is often not the way they're spelled. Although France holds the record for this odd contest the UK comes up a distant second. "Kyle"went' for Caerwent? ...'Odd? or do I have something wrong?
English in the UK has evolved it own peculiar pronunciations over centuries . For example Oxford Universitys' MAGDALEN College is pronounced as "MAWDLIN". Just roll with it..
*DL Southwell*
Actually *Caerwent* is *Welsh* and pronounced a bit like *_kyrewent._*
Archaeology is unpredictable. Why in the world didn't you set five days instead of three?
3 a magic number I've heard.
Maybe 😊
@@user-hy7zb2vl3t

I would likemto see Tony volunteered into a Toga. He has at least the speach according to the rules...
I've come to the conclusion, seeing Tony's clothing and hair style change over the different series, that He definitely listens to Black Sabbath.
Bloody Romans. It took 25 to 30 years for them to make the Silures 'friendly'. Imagine changing from a warrior elite to a jobsworth working in the town hall, ugh. Well done the romans.
kha sab I reckon life got much safer and more comfortable than before. So what are you complaining about? Loss of identity? Pride? Tribemanship, Heimatgefühl? Well, they could all stick it into my arse if I could get a much better life for me and my familiy. So, I think I would have been one of those chaps advocating romanisation. Let us go on the podium and give a spirited speech, you barbarian and I in roman fashion about it!
Ronald de Rooij a) That it *was* safer is just conjecture though on your part, we have no reason to assume that.
Also, life is safer for a tiger in a cage in a zoo, but I'm sure it would rather be taking it's chances out in the wild. I see you wouldn't mind if someone took over your country as long as they made it "safer" for you, but some people think uninvited invasions should be resisted. It's as well for Europe that the English think so !
Also you are using the word 'barbarian' in some pejorative sense, to mean 'uncivilised'. Do you even know the origin of that word? There was nothing 'uncivilised' about the Celtic culture that existed in Britain before the Romans arrived. If anyone is uncivilised it's the Romans. _they_ are the ones who would leave their unwanted babies out on the city rubbish dump to die.
kha sab That humans under occupation can be compared to tigers in a zoo is far more of a conjecture than the Pax Romana. Not for nothing it is called that way (the peace of the Romans). And yes, if an invasion would be beneficial, why resist it? I am sure that many Lybians or Syrians would love an invasion by some strong civilisation right now. And if you know where the word barbarian comes from, you should not feel offended. Dear God... some people are really inflammable!
Ronald de Rooij The Romans called it Pax Romana idiot, no one else did. It's a euphemism for Roman imperialism.
There is nothing conjectural about the tiger in the zoo' image; it is an analogy. The tiger would prefer freedom and danger just as a people would ( your original supposition that life was safer is the only *unfounded* conjecture).
There was nothing 'beneficial' about the Roman invasion of Britain except for the Romans - Why do you think they invaded? to set up a welfare state? Or to increase their own power and wealth? The rest of your comment is garbled nonsense I can't be bothered to untangle. Modern day situations such as the case of Syria are very different. That was a country already destabilised by war.
As for how well I might burn ; I don't see what that's got to do with anything.
kha sab Let us respectfully disagree. I did not live in that time, I only repeat what I was taught and read about the subject. That is all. In any history you will have disagreements about the interpretation. I for one will stick to the idea that the Romans made life easier and safer as long as you paid your taxes and obeyed. You do not know the preference of the tiger just as I do not know the preference of the ordinary celts. Your analogy of the tiger is an analogy supporting a conjecture (animals are happier in the wild). I also do not think that for the ordinary people one civil war is much different from other civil wars, even with 2000 years separating them. It is unsafe misery. One of the first needs for people is safety and security. So I still maintain that the situations in Syria and Lybia are comparable to pre Roman Britain with tribal wars all over the place, not to mention the intra tribal wars. Your inflammable nature is of course not to be taken literally. It is just your aggressive tone towards me. So, again, I respectfully disagree.
It's a pity they can't stay at 1 place. Why all of a sudden go to that barhouse. Why not do more at the shop?
17:25 - is Neil flipping Tony the bird? Hmmm....... 😁
This is a good'un. lots of very well preserved archeology.
Phil does not make a very convincing Roman though.....he needs to doff the hat.
Tracy is very pretty.
They speak of "civilizing" the Silures. Have to wonder if that's the tribe that got all their males murdered by the Romans three times running. Also wonder if it's one of the murders of said Silures that got cut short by Boudicca's Revolt. Pretty easy to "civilize" a culture when 1/3 to 1/2 the population is dead. The women have to get on with living and raising what's left of the kids.
This was called"pacification" AKA winning the hearts and minds of the surviving natives-if any. Very few, if any, nice peaceful empires have been recorded in history. Rome, like all the others was certainly not one of them.
Celtic women could be just as fierce in battle as any man. Especially when they were provoked as Boudicca was. I hope she got the ones that did that to her daughters.
@ 34:53 The camera man needs to put his glasses on too and focus properly =)
Why didn't Mick like the Romans ???????????? He's great , though !
Mick was a noted British "MEDIEVALIST". That was his life-long love and specialty and he stuck to it. Over the course of the TIME TEAM programs there were several snarky encounters between the "Medievalists" and the "Romanists". All in fun , of course...
I'm Scottish and know what's under a kilt. I'd like to know what's under Phil and Matt's togas?
A snake.
Those Gladiators weren't fighting... they was frens
Better than Silchester?
I like the story of jeansvery good
I don't mind the earlier series but my eyes don't like black boarders on the screen. It's a pet peeve of mine. It's not your fault but if it as uploading them I would get rid of them :)
Well, beer for horses….
Heck with that beer for us we will tell the horse about it 😊
I wonder if anyone has run an ancient fingerprint theough a modern system and found a match. They have to repeat eventually.
That would be a Hella cold case 😊
Tony: thats because these areas have never been touched or digged
Me: or geophysed
Why does Robinson run around like the Duracell bunny on steroids?
Robinson, as an actor, saw his role on Time Team as a peripatetic, inquisitive but rather clueless "amateur" who would try to "humanize" the academic "experts" with his supposedly stupid or annoying questions. The pros would then calmly explain, in plain language, what on earth they were doing. In other words, he was playing "us".TIME TEAM insiders reported that until the scripts called for him to go into "action" he would spend his time comfortably in his car, van or nearby shelter. There was always a good bit of "show biz" on TIME TEAM trying to make it interesting and entertaining to the general public. It was , after all, a TV program, not a video course in archeology.
27:53 Professionals painting people in the past like they were idiots always bugs me. Of course they didn't just dump carcasses in a ditch across the street from them. Because why would they. Would you? People in the past had the exact same needs, the same sensibilities as us for the large part. The past was much more like a modern rural life off the grid than most people want to think. We aren't better than our ancestors. That's hubris.
Funny you think that wr have places to put our city refuse now.
They didn't 😊

Most of the older ones were former academic hippies from the 1960s except for Robinson who went bald. But when the show began he had long hair too which kind of drifted away with time....
