Tony's job is to provide a worthy foil so the pedants can give the audience knowledge without sounding pedantic and boring. This works well when he 'antagonizes' them and they can yell at him and display the knowledge necessary to make sense of things. And they're having a great time doing it. There's one episode where they're clearing brush out of a dig site, and Phil informs someone there he can put a large branch anywhere he likes--then realizes what he said, and tries to glare at the other man. (Except that they're both trying not to laugh...)
I've developed a level of respect for Phil. Honestly, when I first started watching these I just thought he was nuts just based on his appearance and demeanor. The man does know stuff and pulls more stuff out of the ground in most cases than anyone on the team.
Oh, have had anthropology profs that were just as crazy. Phil knows his crafts, both archaeology and flint knapping. The requirements in Britain must be different than here in the U.S. He only published 12 papers...
Thanks so much for this program. My last trip with my mum included a visit to Bath and tea at the Pump Room. Lost her to cancer a few years ago and discovered that i have no pictures of our trip. Now I have a prompt for my memories.
I live near Seattle, and you're wrong. It's not occasional, it's the usual. *sigh* Once I looked outside and saw the street was lighter colored than usual, and for the life of me I couldn't figure out what had happened. It had dried off. Once I couldn't figure out why half of my body was getting warm. It was because the sun had come out.
Interesting. I used to live just round the corner from here. The triangular grassed area is known locally as ‘Shit Green’ (due to irresponsible local dog walkers). Had no idea it was the site of a bombed-out church, let-alone Roman sarcophagi!
Nearly 11,000 views in 44 minutes Is pretty impressive! I have an idea for the convent. Why not build out in the upper floors, studio apartments to be rented out to senior citizens? That magnificent kitchen and future grand library would make for wonderful community gathering spaces for the rental community. This is just the thoughts and ramblings of a retired chef who is starting to plan ahead. Keep up the great work Billy and team!
Well, Tony is being a bit of an Eeyore in this episode, isn't he?? Even the smallest find is so exciting! It's not just about what you find, it's also the adventure of the dig itself.
They best not be over here diggin in the USA, or things have taken a reverse! ...and I'm Irish American, that might be a deterrent! 😂 Great share!!! Too funny!
I've worked construction for 20+ years in western Washington state USA. We get a lot of rain so if you don't work in the rain you don't work. The one thing is draw the limit at was wet feet, if my feet got wet it was the end of my day. Of course I own the best gear you can get so it would be pretty bad if my feet got wet.
Hey, folks, I love your channel. Seeing the difficulties and triumphs of actual field archaeology is eye opening. As for what the gentleman on the copter said, his remarks about Roman roads following the lay of the land reiterates what I have heard elsewhere in that the builders would even go up and down fairly steep grades and not resort to such means as cuts or fills. Is this accurate?
I love Victor's art. Especially tickled by the unmentioned depictions of Tony and other crew in his historical period imaginings. Like th-cam.com/video/cKFCuWfL8Yo/w-d-xo.html
There is, somewhere in You Tube, an hour-long show of Victor's work. I imagine if you type his name in 'search' it will come up. (I'm having too much fun with Time Team right now to check.)
Just like our freeways have on and off ramps to get our cheeseburgers it makes sense to me the Roman's might have wanted easy access to to the baths and have more privacy away from all the commotion of the main highway. The road is a detour along the main road and probably closed to foot soldiers and the common rabble.
That’s not how Roman roads worked. Especially not with wide built, surfaced (multi layered) with ditches. Please develop even the most basic knowledge before you pronounce. Thanks.
As soon as I saw that road I immediately thought of the bronze age roads (trackways) all over England and the presumably ceremonial Neolithic cursus (ditches) that connected (or align with solstices) some of the earliest barrows around 3600 BC. There were many of these just like there are monuments but most are incomplete or totally erased via farming. They were huge earthworks at the time and now they're practically invisible.
I've wondered this for many an episode, and this is a prime example: Why don't they keep tents and coverings handy on any dig, so they can continue in relatively dry conditions in the trenches? They've done it occasionally on the show, and it worked pretty well. I can understand avoiding the usage on areas with intense winds, but not just heavy rains.
I can only think it's because they've heavy, bulky, and difficult to cart around. With producers, it only takes 2 incidents when you didn't need them to convince them that you'll *never* need them!
Considering how often it rains in England, one would think Time Team would invest in some large-ish tents to cover trenches! I love Phil's trench/hole! A couple more hours of rain and Phil will have a real Roman Bath...a cold plunge bath, of course!
I love this program, only discovered it very recently. I've watched many episodes already and - just like in this one - I've noticed how (quite often to me) it seems that Time Team were 'trapped' in a rainy day (at least one out of their 3 days time limit). I can only scratch my head and ask myself this question: Did they not check local or regional weather for the 3 planned days of digging before hand?
You have to remember this was a television show with a number of episodes (and therefore related digs) scheduled for months in advance. If the Weather was bad at a site, they couldn’t just hang on for a few extra days because that would affect subsequent filming at other sites. Also, the people involved in the show had other jobs and responsibilities, so they couldn’t take an extra day or two on a site no matter how interesting it was
I am surprised that nobody else seems to have been struck by the similarity between the names Bedoyere and Bedivere. Sir Bedivere was one of the knights of the round table. Could Bedoyere be the French version of that name? It would be very interesting to know about Guy's ancestry. He would be a good candidate for a 'Who do You Thing You Are?' episode.
Nice that the old episodes are reposted, but could you post them in 1080p as earlier ? The latest 2 have been posted in 720p. It beats those old recordings, but HD is a lot better.
Ohh you wonderful folks of England, how I envy you! Such wonderful history everywhere! Anyone want to trade lives with a retired building contractor living just north of Tombstone Az? And yes, i do acting there as well. Not Roman history which I prefer but Old West History so it is fun...lol.
The Romans didn't care, they would build up steep hills without thought, it's proven in Italy. the shortest distance between two points was a straight line.
These are the notorious Order of Archaeological Hackers; whenever they come across buried fiber they feed programs about their craft. This is the method they use to get new recruits. They must have discovered an aptitude for archeology in you. That probably is the reason for the continued disruption.
@@bvyup2112 Yeah, I normally try and turn adblock off when the advertisements aren't nuts but lately youtube runs about 3x as many advertisements in the same amount of time of normal commercial TV. They won't settle for making money, they want to show everyone an hour of ads for an hour of actual produced entertainment and make all the money from ads. So more and mor people get adblock and they try and put in more advertisements to make up for everyone using adblock. Instead of changing their own bad behavior they punish the people who don't have the knowledge to use adblocker software.
could it be due to flooding? it was better to build the roads higher than lower where water would have accumulated due to excessive rainfall. when i was in bath, they mentioned the romans left the area due to flooding. i was privy to the excessive rainfall and the rise of the avon! truly amazing region, and the baths, omg!
Why not bury your beloved close to home on your property. Makes sense to me. Our newer revolutionary way of owning property is temporal, so it makes sense to have cemeteries.
This might be a stupid question, What happens to the bones they find? I know some in remote former church type sites they just leave, but in a built up places like Bath, what happens to the skelatons - under a lawn familes might picnic on - do they remove them?
it would have been nice if they had explained why Romans buried the dead along side roads. i had to go look up why and learned they were buried alongside roads outside of cities most likely to prevent diseases spreading form decaying corpses. the dead reflected wealth and poor. if you were poor you were lain into the ground alongside the roadside as in a paupers grave. if you were rich you were buried in the family mausoleum alongside the road. you were either cremated or buried fully in tact. ironically cremation was an costly process associated with the wealthy using expensive and ornate burial vessels.
From the helicopter, one could see a series of scorch marks running parallel to a small road within the concave curve of those crescent-shaped buildings. I wonder what they are?
I just started watch this show and it so interesting to me I have always enjoyed exploring old and ancient things . But my question can anyone tell me what do they do with everything after? Do they just bury the walls back up but mark in a book or something where it is for history. But then no one will know unless you read those books only the ones who do the work will know. Can someone help with my question please.
Every find is duly noted, where the archeology that is discovered is of significance it is uplifted, the site is plotted out correctly any skeletons found will be removed and sent to the museum for further study and maybe re-interred at a later date in consecrated ground then a full report is written up and recorded, these can be perused at Wessex Archeology about the excavation. As this is a scheduled area digging can only been done with the say so from British Historic Trust, the site is backfilled.
I wonder how many miles to kilometers the Geophys team has walked of England entirely Wish my it would be an interesting tidbit to find out how much of England they've actually walked And still have yet to go now they've got the machines that can drive them around but poor John and Stuart dave's done a lot and their team and there's sore and tired feet.
It seems odd to me to say the major road they found going up a steep incline shouldn't be the Fosse Way because the Romans wouldn't build a major road up a steep incline. Maybe it was more important to have a shorter road than a flatter longer one? Either way, somebody apparently built a road going up a hill.

I LOVE this series, education complete with adventure, frustration, victories and weather! This is real television at its best.
Sulis Minerva is sending a life giving monsoon to bless the dig.
Tony, on his knees, chatting with the little kids....Magic!
Visited Bath as a tourist couples years back, a pleasure to see spots I walked with no idea what was beneath my feet.
It's MUCH easier when you can just 'imagine' what is under your feet LOL

Q: What do you call Phil after he’s fallen into a trench?
A: Landfill.
Just kidding - I love this show. It’s kept me sane during the pandemic.
I love his daisy dukes when it's the summer episodes
I don't see any difference, at least here in Arizona
I was hospitalized with a mild case of Covid in late 2020. Took my computer to the hospital and watched this all day for 4 days straight!
I wonder if they re-bury the skeletons rather than remove them? Pity to think of all the finds being covered up when TT is finished.
And when it rains he gets trenched...
Thank you for posting another episode. Perfect
A Roman Lodge Plant excavator used to dig up Roman archaeology, that’s cute.

@@Case2_0 The new show isn't nearly as good. They bent over backwards to remove any aspect of 'fun in our work' from it.
We can all take comfort in the fact that one day, our remains will belong to the British Museum.
I'm in the U.S., so your comment takes a much darker undertone when I read it than you probably intended.
That's nothing, how do think it sounds in Ireland?

Learned to work wet,I liked too eat😊
Watch this is lovely. Wish they could dig more !! They're all my favourite 😊but Phil show how he enjoy his work/hobby
Everytime I hear Phil talk, I'm waiting for him to tell us about his brand new combine harvester.
What? Not the new handax he just flint-napped?
I visited Bath in 1990. It's really interesting to see the waves of cultures centered on the hot springs there.
When I got to see Bath, we were in one of the tearooms, and I got to see the locals' reaction to the Salvation Army's brass band going by. Off-key!
You are so sweet with the children, Tony. It has been an exciting dig. Now to find the dig at the Property owned by Messrs. Irish completed.
Not normally a fan of Guy, but I love his unwillingness to call things religious.
My most favourite place in the world.

Phil Harding is such a beautiful and handsome man, even to this very day.
He has got great legs.
Yes he is a archeological treasure whethered well as you say still a handsome man even though he is now into his 70s.

Probably best to check the weather forecasts before doing the 3 day excavations.
It certainly rains a lot in England. The place must be very green.
Rain is a given in Blighty.
This begs the question: Why would the Roman's build such a high quality road up the side of a steep hill?
It is my understanding that the Romans preferred to make roads as straight as possible even if it meant going straight up a mountain.
@@thenoobplaysit6923 Sometimes they also just did things to show its possible, like Cesar crossing the Rhine and burning the bridge.
Lead poising? ;-)
To get from A to Z..... 😉
Because they wanted to get to the top? And it wasn't steep enough to require something like the modern hairpin turns?
I wonder if I could get the popcorn concession in the spectator section?

Funny with all these bright minds, it never occurred to anyone to put a tarp over the trenches to jeep off the rain.

So, after the three days do they just fill in the trenches or are some left open for the public to take a longer look?
