If you take a close look (and I do since am going through the series the second time around) you will notice that every dialog on camera is either completely scripted or directed and rehearsed. There are so many examples where you can see they messed up with the staging of a scene. And there is a Time Team Special called "Behind The Scenes" where you can see Tony reading and memorizing his lines or waiting for the signal to rush somewhere and and engage some archaeologist in a dialog.
Yes there is some “organization” but that’s fine because all ‘non-improvised dialog’ is archaeologically driven by ‘what they imagined before’ and ‘what they are actually finding’. It’s not like a script is written, sure Tony gets some fixed dialog and set questions for the boffins, but there is no doubt a ‘Continuity’ person who keeps track of what shots they have and what they might need to add. But with that said, much of what they say is improvised as trenches yield objects. And the personal elements are natural.
@@PatrickMHoey :. I couldn't agree with you more. Nothing better than a person with a positive outlook. Love how giving him a piece of flint to tool and he is in seventh heaven.
That's right! but he uses his British ways of poking and prodding with humour that cuts sometimes, pushing it and this is how my mum was. "Silly Bugger," felt harsher than she intended but when your a Canadian kid you don't get it and take it personal. Watching Coronation street you learn how it is. That said, he did a great job at keeping us stimulated, informed, never guessing and always nicely surprised or curious; and the shared laughs with the TTeam.
Thank you so very much for all your Time Team episodes. I live in Phoenix Arizona, USA and haven't seen Time Team for over ten years. I'm lost in pure happiness with each and every episode. Again, thank you so much. Christa
Christa Simonsen I like that that everything is explained for the archeology novice.. It's actually educational which has contributed to its success..Thank you Time Team..
I get a little verklemptf every time Mick does his thing. Sad ! I'm sure he is very much missed by his peers and the archeological world. Love this series, though, and GB. You can't plow a field without turning over archeology. So cool .
Cable,,, I don't even have a T.V, not had one for many many years?Bliss, choose what I want to watch or not, and NO adverts, or Richard Heads yakking on about fartball!!
NO ONE does history better than the british... l've watched this series several times over the years and it never gets old. Just.wondering if owner will protect the stair well. or bury it again also enjoyed seeing Phillippa Gregory her novels are wonderful.... cheers from BC Canada..
I was thinking the same thing... Do any of the property owners allow continued excavation or do they fill it all in! Cheers, from Vancouver Island BC :)
Most of our ancient cities in the UK still have vast amounts of archaeology under them. Much of Roman London is relatively intact, although a lot of later stuff is damaged by cellars and piling the 1960s for the Brave New World. I've worked on a few excavations in Bristol, which is a late comer of a city, probably not existing before the early 10th century AD. But my speciality is rural archaeology. I do a lot of geophysical and other surveying with a community archaeology group: we started with a search for Roman pottery kilns in a village near Bristol called Congresbury, and since then we've worked a medieval priory near Weston-super-Mare, a hill fort, medieval castles, and loads of other sites: have a look at ycccart.co.uk if you want to see what we've been up to.
As a huge fan of Josephine Tey's 'The Daughter of Time', it was great to get a little more insight into Elizabeth Woodville, the 'Lady Grey of Groby' mentioned in the book 'The Rose of Raby', which Inspector Alan Grant is reading in his attempt to ascertain what made Richard III 'tick'. This program just made 'Daughter of Time' even more immediate for me. Thanks, all!!
If you actually want to learn about these people and their actual lives, please don't try to use the totally fictional Daughter of Time as your guide. It's a good read but completely speculative.
@@joankrawitz The Daughter of Time is a lot better than any of Philippa Gregory's books with all that water magic stuff. Josephine Tey did her research, considering for the time in which it was written.
@@joankrawitz While the *setting* is fictional, Josephine Tey did her own research, going back to primary sources, as she describes in the book. Therefore, it is not 'totally fictional'. She even gives all her sources in the course of the story.
I think Phil should have his own brand of dig tools. They should have his favorite phrases, "We have to extend the trench again to get at the archeology" or "Yes, I'll drink another pint."
Perhaps not every dig, but certainly this is one for the books and one I'd have completely loved being a part of. Where are my boots and my trowel? Cheers!
Tony has the outlook on these places like a normal Londoner. "Two stones are just two stones" where Phil looks at each place like each one is Westminster. Simple but oh so elligent. Each person on Time Team component one another.
The property is sandwiched between a very busy, noisy highway, and some urban sprawl. So even though that little patch is green with lawn and bush, it's not very desirable. And the English Heritage people would want it to go to someone who has given them a plan of use. What is he going to do with all the very important historical bits? Well, have them properly investigated by Time Team and the local uni. Also, the last standing "habitable" structure would be CAREFULLY renovated, preserving as much of the original structure as possible. The fireman would have had to GROVEL for the right to restore the house. He would have had to give EH a plan of what would be repaired, AND THE MATERIALS HE WOULD USE to do the repairs. Is it going to be a private home, or a business? What sort of wear and tear could be expected? If the fireman's answers please the EH people, they would have been only too happy to give him a VERY good price. Because the fireman would be doing the government a favor; taking an extremely important money pit off of their hands. The fireman is going to have to foot the bill for the renovations. It is to be hoped that he will have a network of friends in construction, who would be willing to provide free skilled labor.
@@dianneledford3681 Yeah, it's been interesting tracing my tree. I've been doing genealogy since I was 15. I have ancestry from Scandinavia down to the Mediterranean, and Native American.
Fun fact for you: Thomas Grey's granddaughter Mary Grey married Edward Seymour, the eldest son of Edward Seymour, Lord Protector to Edward VI. His uncle was Henry Seymour, my 14th great grandfather through my maternal grandmother.
I always think it's sad that all this is covered again so people can't come and see it. I guess it's because I love history and wish I was able to go and look at all these digs both in GB, Sweden and Denmark. I do understand they want to preserve it, but I'm thinking it may all be forgotten in time and covered in more layers of dirt.
Firemen in England must do rather well, although I'm sure they sold it to him at a rather steep discount, considering the kind of shape it was in. Clearly, it cost thousands is not millions of pounds to restore. I'm glad someone did it before the squatters burned it down.
I always wondered why medieval and early-modern currency had chronic problems with severely debased coins in circulation. The "clipping" makes perfect sense.
It is surprising that there are spots of things from so long ago still around in some condition that somehow has escaped leveling so that the landscape is totally useable for the future rather than just the site of the past.
started watching time team about 3 months ago so tired of the idiotic american tv how refreshing thanks you BBC so sorry that the show has been canceled thanks goodness there are so many episodes
I am also glad there are so many episodes. I just plain like British TV better in general, though I am sure that it has its share of 'losers,' too. I started watching some British sit-com 6 months ago, and boy, it was DUMB. RIP, Professor Mick. I always look for that old colorful striped sweater of his.
I love watching this show, and i am just now getting to watch this episode, I think it so awesome that thanks to family research and FaceBook pages on royals , we now know who these shows are talking about and what is even more awesome is that we are related to these people, Elizabeth Woodville was the wife of my 3rd cousin 16x removed, Lady Jane Grey was my 7th cousin 12x removed !!!!!
@@momszycat4148 Many of the sites were taken up by local, or at least other, archaeology groups; TT's premise was to make archaeology more accessible and interesting to ordinary people. As Mick remarked, in three days, they could get a good grasp of what was going on in the site, and further information would take months to gather and examine; and TT has actually gone and revisited some of those sites after more was made available.
@@RKHageman No the full picture is not going to happen in a survey dig. That said, they themselves have lamented on occasion that they wished that they had more than four days for a dig, and have even gone back and did a second dig on some of the sites.
If that piece of pottery was found at the BOTTOM of the filled in archway, it could have predated the filling in. It's likely to be around the same time (otherwise it might have been cleared away), but all we know is it was there before the stuff on top.
I had no idea being a fireman paid so well. That said I once knew a humble policeman, who on becoming a detective, and getting wed bought a huge pile, in the Essex countryside!
I notice in a lot of these Time Team episodes that there are a lot of modern buildings, highways, etc surrounding sites that were once in rural areas. England seems to be rather crowded these days!
+NolaGal2601 They connect rods that pass all the way through the tower and stabilize the bricks. On Street View (here: 52.663047, -1.226655) you can catch a glimpse of both sides of the tower.

In Denmark they are called wall anchors and on churchtowers the often are formed as crosses but can take any decorative form such as numbers forming the building year or initial letters for sponsors.
The silver coin was an interesting find in the interest of dating the buildings. Clipped coin-milling the coin edges to keep the coin material from being stolen is a process invented by Sir Isaac Newton.
Recently discovered this show. Very enjoyable. Curious, what happens to the dig at the end of three days? Do they continue or fill the holes and walk away
good to see another desert rat. i too enjoy this show. i live about a hour from pehonix. snowbirds are starting to show up. get ready for the crazy drivers. peace.
So what happens at the end of the dig? I am unclear. Do they just cover it up and go on their way? With so many interesting finds on this site, did they continue looking after the "3 days " were done? It seems a shame to just leave things half unearthed. Is there a follow up?

I like Phil because when he finds new things. He acts like a kid in a candy store.
I love the look on the digger operator's face at 9:50 as Phil is explaining that he HAS to get to the bottom of the dig!
There's something magical about Time Team, a bit like listening to relaxing music
Totally! I put it on for background pondering while I glaze my pottery. Love how thought - provoking it can be.
Time Team does wonders for mental health - especially now!
I often listen to old episodes I've already seen while falling asleep. So pleasant and relaxing.
@@ziizification ha so do i if i'm sleepy in the afternoon
Nothing puts me in a restful peace like the sound of Phil joyfully scraping clay off a Bronze Age artifact with his spade.
I really enjoy this program, the best part is the dialog does not seem rehearsed. It's refreshing to see real people on television instead of plastic people.

Some of it is "directed", yes.

Because it’s not shitty ass American tv. There’s nothing real about anything they do.
Yes there is some “organization” but that’s fine because all ‘non-improvised dialog’ is archaeologically driven by ‘what they imagined before’ and ‘what they are actually finding’.
It’s not like a script is written, sure Tony gets some fixed dialog and set questions for the boffins, but there is no doubt a ‘Continuity’ person who keeps track of what shots they have and what they might need to add.
But with that said, much of what they say is improvised as trenches yield objects. And the personal elements are natural.
One of the better episodes, enjoyed having Phillipa as a guest, she had quite a bit to add.
Phil tickles me. His enthusiasm is catching and his "pie in the sky" optimism is refreshing.
We should all try to be more like Phil 👍
@@PatrickMHoey :. I couldn't agree with you more. Nothing better than a person with a positive outlook. Love how giving him a piece of flint to tool and he is in seventh heaven.

Once Phil gets a whiff of archaeology he makes the Energizer Bunny look lethargic.

LOVE Philippa Gregory! Love her books. Especially her fictional take on Elizabeth Woodville ❤️❤️
Absolutely LOVE this show. So sad its not on any more. Thankfully we have TH-cam. R.I.P. Mick Aston
Tony would definitely be the child in the back seat, constantly asking "Are we there yet?" I love it!
Well, that's his function. He is there to ask the silly questions for us.
That's right! but he uses his British ways of poking and prodding with humour that cuts sometimes, pushing it and this is how my mum was. "Silly Bugger," felt harsher than she intended but when your a Canadian kid you don't get it and take it personal. Watching Coronation street you learn how it is.

And for the compliment: clearly not everybody thinks the rest of us are morons.
I was born in Leicestershire very close to Groby. I have great interest in history. Even living in Australia since 1956.
What a fine show this is!
Mr. Robinson you are a really Gripping Lecturer, I have totally enjoyed 12 hours of the time team.
Phil is my hero!! he is epic awesome
Me-I am not a Brit but I love this show it is so interesting. Makes me think I should have been an archaeologist
Elizabeth Woodville was my 13th GGrandmother, and Edward IV my 13th GGrandfather. It is interesting to hear the history like this.
Wow that's awesome
