    I love it when they go up in the helicopters and shout at each other as they peer out the open door, reminds me not to take for granted the drone shots that are so easily done in the current episodes. 😁

    Do a show about a castle called Shipbrook. My ancestor Sir Richard DeVernon lived there after the Battle of Hastings. All I can find is a simple drawing of what it might have looked like.

    29:30 Well, a lot depends on the armor quality. A piece made just for the looks for a cosplay or such, would be offer a very poor defense quality (and rightly so).
    And chainmail would be mostly worn on top of cloth armor.

    Something no one is mentioning is how objects, from inside and out are reduced to unreuseable fragments. It looks highly likely to me that early explosives were used to overcome and probably destroy it in the heights of distaste for those inside, as they were probably driven away.

    There should be a more nuanced term to describe those buildings as seen in their model which they are now calling a castle. They are charming, but I'd never think to call them a castle.

      @jeffaltier5582 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You do realize this was filmed like 20 years ago, right? And BTW-- they often established sites that were later followed up by full scale excavations based on their findings. So they actually were doing something worthwhile. You just thought you were going to be a clever troll, but really you just sound kind of stupid.

      On the contrary, since this is a scheduled monument with minimal digging allowed, three days is more than sufficient. Particularly with GeoPhys data.
