- Time Team revisits Athelney Abbey, the hideaway of Alfred the Great. They search for traces of King Alfred's fight against the Vikings. Previously the team found evidence of ironworking and discovered the Abbey built to commemorate Alfred's victory but they believe there are still more discoveries to be made. The site is naturally defended by marshes and floodable land, making it an ideal base for Alfred's fight against the Vikings. The team now has permission to dig and uncover more secrets of Alfred's Hideaway in the marshes.

Binge-watching Time Team episodes is one of the simple but satisfying pleasures in life.
agreed
Miss that!
Yes! I've watched them all several times. So much better than the junk that's on TV now and I learn something new each time. That's great TV
🎉🎉🎉
My favourite bit of that episode is Mick saying "It's not that bad!" to the oat cakes. Such a decent optimistic person. ❤
Watch season 1 episode 1 before this. “The Guerilla Base of the King”
When you're the only monarch of a country known as The Great...enquring minds want to know
It would be great to see geophys of the same place over time with improved technology.
So strange that they weren’t allowed to archeologically dig 10years ago, but the area was able to be ploughed for so many years. Luckily a lot of archeology was a lot deeper. I love time team and watch and rewatch just about every day.
WOW! I thought I had seen every Time Team episode that was ever made, but I missed this one! What a GEM!
Thank you kindly, Chronicle - Medieval History Documentaries! 👍 What strikes me as strange, is the strong affinity of Modern Brits to the Angles and Saxons. They were Germanic Tribes that pushed out or intermingled with the Romano-British, often Celtic Tribes. The Vikings were Germanic tribes as well. Why is the Vikings so feared, and the Angles and Saxons so revered? The early Germanic tribes were presumably no more or less brutal than the later Vikings. And genetically, I reckon Britain is a mix of the Celts, Romans (who were a hodgepodge of Peoples) and the later Germanic Tribes such as the Jutes, Angles, Saxons and Vikings. So, it seems weird that Anglo-Saxon finds have such a special status.
Just a thought. Thanks again for a MAGNIFICENT episode! 👍
And look how young everyone is, my goodness.
Modern Brits have an affinity for the Anglo-Saxons because their genes make up the biggest chunk of modern English DNA, as long as you’re not Cornish. You are correct that they were just as brutal as the Vikings, though! I imagine the historical record seems so biased is because 1) it was written by the English, and 2) the Vikings weren’t Christians.
The blood eagle is now thought to be very rarely done because there is very little mention of it in Viking sagas,etc. Thought to be only used in very serious offences. And also not possible from the front.- according to Doctors.
Love to hear them say "slag" in English accents repeatedly, an absolute gem.
Bernard Cornwell lost kingdom series. It is the best reading i could recommend to anyone that enjoys this kind of history. ❤❤
What a bullshit title. "The Lost 9th-Century Hideaway Of Alfred The Great". It was never lost. I come from the area, we always knew what was there. We grew up with it.
Tom Rosenthal should have worn blue contact lenses when he played King Alfred the Great. Besides Tom Rosenthal looks much better with blue eyes than brown eyes. 🎭🩰🎨
If Tony had burnt those cakes any worse, they'd be mistaking those for pottery shards
😁
As a norwegian, this is great to watch :)
The egotistical male sexism that Carenza had to put up with on this show is ridiculous. This episode is just one of many examples.
🌀 There are "2 Subjects of Point" I wish to share for Thought, relative to the Peoples of this Video:
("Who are these People's inhabiting the Geographic Area of England/Britain, in this time?") and ("What was their then "General Manner of Social Thought", what would be considered as +/- and their Clinically defined "Emotional Development" indicated by: "How they were Thinking", ie: "Higher Mind vs Lower Mind"
@ 26:47 Human thought and Behavior (the defining description of an act of Human aggressive action resulting in an obvious state of torture to the victim, but it's "the Aggressor's Behaviors" and "the then Public's reactions, their behaviors", that I point to as defining the "State of Thought", "a general average point of the Society's Social Behavior area", and this having a measure that falls within the "Human Higher, Lower, and/or Mixed combination of both".
A Sociological/Behavioral Model of Public Thought and Behavior, in the era and further, including "Who were the Peoples: in Leadership/Influence, in the Public, and in the Victim Roles, what ethnic Orgin(s) did they represent?
In this era and "The Years of Alfred the Great", "Who are these categories of Peoples representing?"
This requires one to employ the "Genetic Data for the Period", looking into both the Geographic area of the Subject and the Geographic area from which they and their predecessors originate and further "what % of the Public where sharing any Genetic values of earlier People's whom had been the "People's whom migrated to the lands, England, Whales, and surrounding area of Modern Day Great Britain".
The Post Flood era, and original English, Welsh and Ireland, having been largely Basque.
NOTE: This lineage remains largely evident in varying amounts at a relatively dominant %, a large %, a noteworthy %, to minimum %, lesser %, and then there's the ❓, the Subject: "the group that is the Current Average within Britain of: < 2% early or original English DNA, (that which would be shared by the Early Welsh, and Irish, ("Ireland having been the earlier Area of Leadership", as a sort of "Capital area of Education, Religion, the Leadership Engine that would have been the Driving Center and Larger Center of energies concentration, of People's involved in Trade, Exchange and the Industry Hub of the Area. This is where Resources were being Maintained, Hubbed/Managed for Exchange.
This History Fact is noticably absent in Modern History Education, the Textbooks, (yet it certainly sheds more Light on the Energies so Prevalent in the latter 15th Century forward to recent time 20th Century, (some might say it continues, though to a lesser degree, Public Mind mostly, because the purpose would have been managed in Political Agreements for Ireland's "Independent Status", meaning, the controls continue though far less obvious)
This perspective gives some clarity as to Why the Monarchy aka Leadership of England aka Great Britain behaved in Actions and Propaganda so intensely focused on "Keeping the People's of Ireland in a Powerlessness State, Financially, Opportunities, and Most Importantly in their "State of Mind, Thoughts, Feelings, and Beliefs", for this 8s the very true method of Controlling, of an Individual and a Public Collective. It is Painfully Abusive, but it is most effective. It remains a method used through Medias to affect the entire Collective of the Western Hemisphere.
Now, that

Skipped right over the part where he mentions the bones or grave of a person 8ft tall. Not gonna talk about that. Wonder why?
I would remake those old spikers. The printer and the old geo spike. A dot matrix with a +- probe
The thumbnail image is clickbait......its not a doc about vikings vs saxons its a plagiarized vid from tv.
It's a mystery to me that sites are protected from digging but not plowing ! A dichotomy without a doubt , stop the plowing, start the digging , before its all plowed away ! Seems to be a backasswards way of preserving Archeology/ history !
Alfred had some sort of stomach problem
Chrones disease
Again no significant finds
You hoo😊
Great show. Peace
Thank god they're talking metric.
It’s over. Just watch.
Quite intriguing!
Super Film
At his time he was known as Alfred the Bastard.
I started developing my new symbolism in February 2020 when I started drawing after three years of not painting. Every element depicted in my works has a personal meaning, and a complex story behind it.
The symbol of a tree I call Gaia -mythological Greek goddess of earth, soil, and all organic life. It has its powers deep within the roots, and it can stimulate super volcanoes to annihilate all life to bring complete extinction. My “Gaia tree” provides food in abundance to all the species on earth and under water. Often there is a fruit resembling the fruit of temptation from the garden of Eden. And occasionally, I am using biblical symbol to express abundance this planet provides for its inhabitants. Often my Apple is manipulated into situation, where it distinctly becomes an object of desire.
Pandora’s box at the lower left corner supposed to be a reminder that everything in this universe obeys laws of atrophy.
Nothing stays the same forever even atoms deteriorate. Often magical energy from Pandoras box is penetrating many elements in my artwork. By doing so I am showing universal presence of creative and destructive forces in every square inch in our universe.
\The presenter of this program is the more irritating then clarkson!
With all due respect to him, IMO he is unnecessary. I want to listen to the experts.
Wow. This is so boring it's shocking
ignore and don't watch it.
They have found nearly enough pottery in 30 years to make a whole pot, and they can find a wall with GPR like it's nobody's business.🤣
@@MrOx85 wow a whole pot.
I'm sure there a some "exciting" Tik Tok videos you can binge watch instead.
@@karlkarlos3545 I don't watch tik tok. Its a spy for China
You're insulting viewers by saying you have just three days, when it;s obviously a tactic to mani[ulate your audience with fake excitement. The "three days" bogus deadline is ridiculous and makes viewers feel like you think they're sheep on a leash.
The show was filmed over three days because they all had full time jobs. You will observe that in many episodes some of the people do not turn up until Saturday.
You're rather quick to jump to conclusions. This deadline is there not only for the format of this show, but also serves as an initial time window for these archeologists to find what they can in order to establish if further digs would be merited. They get "first dibs" on the site as it were, so future archeologists will know what to look for and what they might find.
There's nothing insulting or manipulative about this. Nothing to get so worked up about.
Farmer Tim has'nt changed much in 10 yrs 👨🦰
So why happened to the slag , did she find a father for the baby ?
