During a visit to Europe in 1979 I fell in love with the absolute beauty of the Cotswolds. While driving slowly in the early misty morning on very narrow roadways bordered by hedges, you’d round a curve only to find yourself behind beautiful horses being ridden by people on old fashioned saddles wearing old fashioned jodhpurs. It was an exquisite place with huge manor homes with peat/turf roofs enclosed by large stone fences. I’d never heard of the Cotswolds before but I’ll never forget them.
I loved this dig, as usual. You are my favorite channel.
Every time I cue up another episode, it's like visiting with old friends.Thank you!
Time Team will always be my favourite show EVER! 🥰🥰🥰
It really has been a wonderful discovery the last few months or so!
This is always such an adventure... I love traveling back in time with these guys...💋
Agree 😁
You bet
I am so VERY THANKFUL that these videos are available. I bet I have seen each video made at least 4 times and I learn something new everytime. I LOVE ENGLAND and would swap with anyone in England looking to come to the US. I am a retired contractor (55) and I spend 90% of my time reading and studing England/UK history. I just LOVE it so!
Same here.!!
An old joke written sometime between 63 B.C. and 14 B.C. went like this. "The emperor Augustus was touring the empire when he saw a man who bore a striking resemblance to himself. Intrigued he asked the man if his mother was ever in service at the palace. "No your highness", the man answered, "but my father was."
Oh no he didn't!😂
Another Roman joke: A man walks into a bar and another patron calls out his name to join his table and says to the new comer, "I heard you were dead!" The new comer replies, "Whoever told you that is not a reliable source," to which the first man said, "He's more reliable than you".

A Roman walked into a bar, held up 2 fingers and said, "Give me five goblets of wine".
@@hashtag415 this one lives on in parts of the continent as "five beers for the sawmill workers."
@@alysencameron361 too funny
This mosaic is amazing, I mean to think how long it’s been sitting there and it looks so undisturbed even though the area is clearly maintained. It’s absolutely stunning.
All that damage likely occurred in the last 70 years, otherwise it would still be perfect
I love the mosaic guy, Anthony Beeson, always showing up to the site in a lovely suit and tie, so British 💖
I immediately thought of the "Famous Historian" from Monty Python and the Holy Grail!
@@yellowwoodstraveler Frank❗LOL
could we spend a second talking about his rings?
@@simonlabeuf7782 Yes, they are quite intriguing, no standard pinky signet.
@@Odo55 I am totally in love with them. 18th century cameos? maybe earlier. absolutely fabulous. usually reserved to women or bishops (Cardinal Bagnasco has an identical one). in fact just marvelous
4:29 I love the dialect contrast between Anthony Beeson and Phil Harding with Neil Holbrook as a bridge.
Phil is Irish.
@@jrmckimre you sure? Seems like he has a Wiltshire accent?
@@jrmckim West Country
Love it! "What do you call a group of archeologists? A confusion of archeologists!!"
This whole series is really engaging, instructional, and FUN! Thank you!
It's amazing to see stuff revealed from the soil.
Please consider putted the episode number, series and original air date in the description.
Yes
That info.is usually in the credits or the commentary.
Roger Banks. What's the word PUTTED never heard of it.
@@barbaradyson6951 That should read “putting”. “Putted” is a golf term though.
@@TermiteUSA sadly, here it is not. there is ZERO information about the season number, episode number, or original airing date.
I also find the tacked on intro bit pushing their website rather irritating. Thank goodness I can skip past it!
I remember taking a photo of my sister in 1971 lying on one of the stones as a sacrificial person. haha. We didn't know to appreciate that access until it was gone. Very near my English families village of Whitchurch, Hampshire.
Before we know it ALL of Britain will be dug up and beautiful artifacts from all over will be loved and cherished. Thank you Time Team for your wonderful and fun sites full of knowledge!
Best. Show. Ever!
Totally. Agree. 100.
I've. Seen. Better!
I love British trash talk. “If the geophys is already done why are you here?” All taken with a good chuckle.
Brilliant!
Plus a lot of hugging
The Romano Britons certainly chose one of the most beautiful regions to put all those villas. 40 something years ago I lived in a little village 2 miles from Great Witcombe, 2 miles from Painswick villa, 5 miles from this one in Coberly, and 10 miles from Chedworth villa.
a conundrum of archiologists
Cranham?
Weren’t you lucky to live in such a glorious place!
I love Phil’s accent lol
Does not get any better ⚡️✨🌟🌈🌻🌼🌸🌺
Thank you so much for sharing with us 🍄🌹
Enjoy a night filled with stars 🌟
The mosaic guy is so British 😂.
"Lets not get too excited". His blood is probably earl grey tea
'Rouse me when it's a twelve-storey mosaic with a magnificent entrance hall, carpeting throughout, 24-hour portage, and an enormous sign on the roof saying "This Is a Large Mosaic"'.
@@streetsofba8521 Splendid *sips tea :D
Always loved "Time Team" I've hopefully watched every episode at least once. Over the many seasons, it ran. I wish more shows followed its path of more information on the work and the knowledge and less on re-enactments.
So true. So true. It most certainly would be lovely to visit the Cotswolds, again! It’s also fantastic to hear such excellent news! I mean, was it or was not a farming villa? I do believe we haven’t established that to be without a doubt, anyone? Tony’s confident enough to close with that, but, is he still prepared to eat a shoe?
This showed up on my feed. I hadn't watched one for a grip. So glad, I remember so much.
Somebody get Phil a pint already!
Bridge: "Yeah, no ut's great!". Very Kiwi.
I was sure there would be a follow-up on this at some time but I didn't find one. The site at Turkdean (which I DID find a follow-up on) was so similar that it would be redundant TV-wise I guess. Too bad because the geophys at Cotswolds is VERY promising.
I love the mosaics! I love this series!
When I desire a clearing of energy, a more positive energy, a back to grounded center, *I have a few venues and this is a place to come to "ground in the Archaeology" of "Time Team"*
Yep, really.
John is always right.Geophys is magic like Merlin.
Anthony’s voice is so soothing.
3:30........"no.....seriously! Why...are...you...here??!"
@19:37 a QUARREL of Archeologists...
Most excellent always so interesting
Mr. Harding talking to finds would make great ASMR
Best show on TH-cam
Nice video about historic position..thanks for sending.....really too nice mosaic nice arts design at that time
Great work and with style makes SUPER Entertainment and Education for better Knowledge.Bless You All.
Super interesting. Such smart people.
The mosaic is amazing. How is it possible it has been preserved for so long? It's cultivation land
I would think they would want to contact a university archeology dept or perhaps the British museum. This would be tremendous tourist attraction for the town' people would pay money to see it which would support more archeology.
@@glennredwine289 yes that would be great ... flood a small clean community with millions of tourists which in turn would skyrocket their taxes and costs of living ( which happens in every country in towns or cities near tourists attractions) which would then force the people out of their land and homes because they wouldn’t be able to afford to live there anymore.... great idea
Love this series. ❤️Raksha
11:16 medusa is winking at you
thanks, I enjoyed this one
I wish it could be rebuilt. All of them. But, I'm a dreamer I guess. ♡
The location is here: North 51°50'06.9" by West 2°02'52.8" (51.835244, -2.048002) Though in spring 2021 the field is too verdant to show much in the way of crop marks.
That lonhhaired Irishman is a real Relic-Pirate...
(His lowborne-cackle makes me excited for history!)
* . . .his voice sounds like he eats whiskey for breakfast.
In what year did the Romans leave England? And why? I'm and old lady the US who loves history. Thank you.
407 : the Emperor Constantin III decide to send his troups back in Gaules...
Very Good!..
They are always so mean to Geo-phys haha but they never realize most of them are making as big of guesses as Geo-phys does haha Love this show
I love this guy ❤
Awesome!
Thank you.
My favorite show!
You must really love reality tv then.... cause is all this really is... if you notice very rarely do you actually see any of the main cast actually digging or doing anything they have other people doing it for them and then they step in and talk about it... and tony is a lifelong actor that doesn’t know the first thing about archeology he reads off of a script and constantly gets in the way
Now that's interesting!
Thought the thumbnail was an ice cream sandwich
Impressive！
This was really interesting dig. What year did they do this dig? How much more has been found? Great show Thanks.
Time Team excavated the site in 2007.
went there many years ago in the 70s so long ago amazing place
That's looking like road over the ditching 😊
Come for the archaeological who-done-it suspense, stay for the motley crew of misfits.
I wonder if the hills of Los Angeles will puzzle archeologists 2000 years from now?
I’m wondering how pieces of the mosaic got lost? With it being buried albeit somewhat shallowly, you would think that random pieces wouldn’t make their way up to the surface like that.
Could be the brazil nut effect. Small bits of dirt can slip under larger stone bits, eventually pushing the larger stones up.
And here we are today, still re-reading the story of the Iliad in nearly every grade school curriculum. Full circle.
Please don’t take this wrong as I Love the English but we do speak different English’s from each other. When you were talking about the house, I thought you were saying Apps. So, I was pretty clueless for a few minutes and got a good laugh about it as I hope you do! You know us Americans, we speak American which could or could not be a good thing! And…🤣 I’m from Texas and here we don’t have English or American, we have Texans which speak Texan. And of course, Spanglish which is very much a language as I’m fluent in Spanish, American, Texas and Spanglish. So, I guess I’m multilingual! 🤣🤣. It made me smile at least! Lol
The plough damage on that mosaic was horrifying ☹️
Helen appears to have raided Micks wardrobe for a scarf
Balm for the soul these uploads.
Great video. Question do the land owners like you digging up their fields and do you leave them that way. What happens?
You can, of course, NOT dig without the landowners permission, and no, they don't leave trenches open, exposing the archeology. It was recorded after the TT digs, often by Wessex Archeology, and also restored by them. In this case, others were taken over the further dig, as said at the end.
@@malinlindqvist3455 Very interesting show. This episode was especially interesting. You could tell it from the animation in peoples voices.
@@malinlindqvist3455 Of course in hind sight sounded very stupid. I realize you would not turn a shovel without permission and permits. Please excuse what I said.
@Celto Loco Please don’t get me wrong. I enjoy this show. I knew my answer before I ask it.
I say old Chap! This is bloody unusual!
History hit tv
Been re-watching lots of Time Team now that the footage looks so much better but if I had a nickel everytime the words "ditch" or "trench" have been uttered I'd have enough money to buy a house.
Bronze Age Mobility Always astounds people and its mentioned time and again, how They Walked over Long distances. But why Walk, when you have rivers, that can be Used for Transport by Boat ? Boats Had Been Invented long before.
Helen!
Phil and his child like wonder even at 96😆
Give Bridget her own show. Honestly.
No mention of a treasure house!
Still convinced you hear matt swearing here haha
So what happens after the 3 days? Does another team come in? Are these sites investigated further?
tony should know a group of archeologists wouldnt be called a doubt or confusion...it could only be termed a ritual !
i wonder what happened to these buildings to fall into such insignifigance to where its just a floor buried under the earth. after the romans left did nobody used them when the celts moved back in? torn down for materials? idk if i was a celt moving into a british villa sounds nice lol
I wonder how history would be different if Rome held on to Great Britain? Seems Rome was more sophisticated, educated and cleaner than early England.
this is an example of present day people trying to apply their present day thinking to ancient thinking. it's not the same. they were just as intelligent, just had a different environment, different perspective.
Do they salvage the mosaics or just document and cover it all back up? I would love to see them as a wall in a museum
John Gater is always right.
How do they find a ditch underground? Am I missing something? Time to Google too! Lol
The dirt is a different color because it’s been disturbed in the past.
Could the place have been a hospital into a productive administration center? I assume conflict in the area would have been occasional but often enough.
Morning from Iowa and Val's Cat Rescue started 0:59 watching a video about a castle that has been in a fellows family name for 700 years.The heir lost my.interest.I have enjoyed everyone if the Time Teans several times so.gere I am.Will watch another then have.hours of nastiness to do.Yeah me!
In a thousand years I wonder if they will be discovering our remnants of life like we do now.
Surely they will protect this mosaic floor! Right?
Right at the very last moment one of the cleaner guys said the county council, land owner and local archeological society had reached an agreement to not only preserve the dig but to continue the work. Or something to that effect.
@@ReginaldJKornblow Sooooo glad to hear this. Thanks much!
Thank you 💐landowner/council and ALL who are committed to preserve this incredible site. Best wishes & high regards❤️ fm cape town ZA🇿🇦
What will happen to this archeological "find" once it's totally uncovered?? 🤔
why do they only have 3 days? is that some strange law that sais they can only use the land for 3 days before giving it back?
Watching archeology and get a lesson in on "Iconoclasm"....
Imagine being the farmer who inadvertently destroyed that lovely mosaic
There are two people on this planet that I would love to meet before I pop my clogs. Elizabeth, Queen of England, Scotland, Ireland and France,
and Phil Harding. Both extraordinary persons in their own field.
Queen of France?
Why only three days??
S15 E5 - "Mysteries of the Mosaic", 3 February 2008
What so sad is the late Romans distroyed a mosaic but did not have the skill or money too fix li also by the 4th centry looks like the Villias were turning into factorys
👍
What is an "APSE" and how is is spelled. @34:39
date of phil's coin?
Anyone: *Did Time Team ever do a Show(s) that updated any of their works with others having done further excavations/studies?*
That would seemingly offer a "motivated for viewer numbers" opportunity for them back during their "Current Season's era".
