"Hi, we're from the BBC and we're here to dig up your land."
Or ITV?
They did exactly that in a number of episodes!
Time Team was always produced independently, though, so whomever asked for permission (usually Mick, Carenza or Tony) would have identified themselves by the show rather than its network.
Ya because modern property rights should trump the preservation of thousands of years of history...
I read this to the tune of the kinky boots line "we are the British army and we've come to take your land"
@@thomasmills3934 Technically ... yes. Depending a bit on where that history is buried, but digging a field that has been harvested a week before will cause less financial loss than digging a field that has just been sown. Digging a plot that is being excavated for construction anyways is cheaper for the owner than tearing open a terrace in the back yard.
Looks like this was produced in the 90s I love it
@Patrick Glaser lol just made it to the 5:25 mark and I see the nice box computer
It actually looks like the 80''s but it was the 90's.
Recorded in early April of 1995, then first aired on BBC Channel 4 in February of 1996. There was still another 15 years of Time Team after this... & the show may even be coming back through crowdfunding on Patreon!
The dig's written up in detail here, btw:

@80sBaby90sKid • Ikr.... It's weird to think THAT was the simpler time.... What will the future be, making this the simpler time?

The cows!! I love how they're so curious.
Wonder what they would do if you showed them a bottle of HP sause
33:48 "The Irish loved finding bumps and doing things on top of them." 😂👏
This put a wee twinkle in me eye
😉😁
I had to pause at 1:48. Those curious cows at the site cracked me up.
Wow! This is an EARLY dig! There's loss of about 50% of visible AND PIGMENTED hair, 50% more evidence of time and environmental damage on skin, and about 50% growth in stature (girth) makes about 50 years difference between the dig and now! Amazing time travel. How cool to have seen the team at work over all this time! Thank you
Sir Toney looks like he belonged as a Teacher in Harry Potter movies..
Time Team: Let's find an ancient palace in this field!
Cows: Bruv, you're digging up my bed.
Holy shit its Boldrick but he's got long hair and he's not filthy!
Baldrick has a cunning plan
to be fair he is kind of filthy
Bet he has some beans!😂
This is old I used to watch it on TV! Blackadder! Rules! Tony Robinson is his name!
Sir Tony, nowadays.
Chris has a fine Irish brogue.
Such an inflection on the end of the words. Interesting and appealing. The Scottish equally a pleasant listen.
I find a familiar comfort in each of the team's, now familiar, voices and accents. A truly successful group and production. Bless them each one, those in non-physical and those here in 3D form.

@Richard King you and every fucking one else! It's called a sympathy fuck. Ya my grandma felt bad for an Irishman too "I'm so hungry! Potato famine this, raining that..." 😆
I feel better now thanks

For me it is reassuring that Mick, Robin and Stewart are on this dig, they for me are the most astute of people to work out any clues that the site may hold and relate them to the history and story of this site. I have just starting to watch this episode, and i am hoping that they come though with the goods yet again............................. And yes they are my favourite TT members.
As I am American I somehow feel like my history and ancestry are only a couple hundred years old. It's easy to forget that European history is my history. I just love this stuff.
Let's make a documentary about ancient Irish kings but let's make it a meta documentary set in the time period where jurassic park is still in theaters.
Love learning about my Irish ancestors
@BabyChainGang I know there is so much missing from Irish history but at least with advances in technology we find more every year
@BabyChainGang haha thanks
@EvilAlien, I'm not Irish but I love learning about Irish history too, other histories as well but I'm particularly fond of the Irish.
@BabyChainGang. I, too, agree that it is so much more important than people think. Not just the archeological side, but culturally as well. I dont know how many people know that a lot of, so called, modern traditions come from historical traditions that originated in ancient Ireland. It's truly fascinating!!
@Black Illuminati That would make sense since Irish are Celts,and Celts are of Indo European ancestry,just like most Europeans,but Celts were not Germanic like the other Indo European descendents that came later,like the Saxons.
I can't believe how YOUNG Chris looks!
Well, it is an old documentary.
Wonderful distraction from the pandemic !
When History Channel had real history!
Look at all that hair on Tony!!
I love learning about how humans lived luxuriously even before we found the more destructive ways of living 💙🏰🏯💙
Well if you pay attention to the environmental damage done by the Roman city of Leptis Magna,possibly our hunter-gatherer ancestors were environmentally neutral,but just about every human activity since then has a cost or a price. I mention that city as it was geographically isolated,and the records of what happened to forestation,soil quality and water table are there for those who wish to study the silts and soils,etc.
Seriously? Ugh.
Ya but we were more destructive to each other lol
Or plumbing!
Yeah, if you were a king or lord, you lived "luxuriously" in comparison to your peasants that lived in literal shit huts with their livestock. So luxurious. God, I hate that we can cut planks easily and have a/c now. Really feel like I missed out now that I dont have to work from daylight to dark until I die.
23:50 -> Phil comments on his accent and Gaelic .... (Phil ... lololololol - we speak same language and I often have to rewind to catch what he's saying.)
GO IR8SH !!! 🍀
The thumbnail for the video shows a circular place, common clan house or what ever you might call it. In a way these structures remind me of a number of stone circles found off of Turkey at the bottom of the Aegean Sea. To my knowledge they have never been investigated properly. That's because they are surrounded by the wrecks of WWI French and British warships from the Gallipoli Campaign. The issues of war graves is involved. I've heard opinions that they must be religious or ceremonial structures of some sort. I think they are something else entirely. These stone circles all have a taller stone tower, pillar or whatever at their center. To me it is more likely that these are the remains of communal dwellings for extended families, clans or another group where the central pile of stones acted as a support for roof beams and the circle is the outer wall of the structure. The kicker here is these sites have been under water for at least 8,000 years.
In the US,NYS in the Hudson River,in front of Storm King mountain there are said to be 900 foot long stone walls at the bottom of the river.The DEC won't let anyone poke around down there because it's supposedly next to a ship wreck,and they don't want anyone disturbing the ship wreck.
Boy that dude has lost some hair. Still a fine looking gent but I would never have guessed he was a hippie :D
An episode I haven't seen yet?
Touché
This is god daaaaaam gold for fantasy writing and games
Ty for the idea
When they make the discovery around 7:55, it sounds an awful lot like the man in the colorful sweater says "deadass"
That’s Mick Aston~ Rip~ a wonderfully wise and spirited archaeologist. I’ll go back to listen, they do get away with some language. Love Time Team!!
Tony, is that you?! My oh my. Time has been kind to you and your style.
It's an irrigation ditch for fields. It goes out to a potato bed. It was for feeding the area. It drained water away from someplace it tended to pool which was probably populated and towards the crops.
Quarter of a century ago.
@@ReasonAboveEverything explain please?
Seeing Tony with hair is the highlight of my week.
Carenza Lewis looks attractively the same in Every Show
I love watching these!
Tony has hair! Mick lives!
Good lord! Tony once had hair.
And that is SOME hair!
Loving tonys hair. Hes been awesome forever it seems
That's the first thing I noticed! Lol!
I love this kind of programs. It makes me wish that the entire planet could be scanned and explored for historical revelations, in South Africa, Africa and all the way around the world.
It would help a lot, for people to grasp the changes that never stopped. Without stirring nations, instead bringing nations together to be proud of their history and to accept we are in a era that should have left the strugles in the past. Thus i propose to rebuild the historical towns closest to the studies made about the nation, in study. Instead of using it as tourist attractions, get the willing people of the nation in study to inhabit the rebuild historical towns with the agreement that they live a life identical to the peoples back then during the visiting hours, to attract and inspire visitors. After visiting hours, the people living there, could start up their solar powered equipment. Thus it will bring back life to the historical towns and lessen the poverty most people of all nations face. It will also promote echo living.
'We only have three days' really? We can do without the artificial tension. Anyone watching this likes history and isn't expecting 'speed'
You must be new here :)
most of the people were active professors, and most of this was shot during the school year.
Every member of the team had regular jobs at colleges and archaeological societies, except for Tony who had acting gigs, so they could only get a few days off their regular jobs to film the episodes. Also, it was only ever supposed to be them going in and doing an evaluation to determine if there is something there and if so then does it need further study? Protected? Or is it just so far gone or so little info can be gleaned from it that there is no point in protecting or studying it? The experts involved simply couldn't take the time from their regular jobs to do full time digs for a T.V. show. It isn't artificial tension, they really only had three days to do their evaluations and get back to their regular jobs, very rarely did they stay more than three days, and even then it had to be for something very spectacular to get the time extension from their employers. Don't worry though, several of the sites time team visited were studied by full teams of archaeologists and/or listed as protected later, but they wouldn't have been if it wasn't for the evaluations done by the time team.
This is repackaged "Time Team." "Time Team" was an archeology show that ran for ~20 years in Great Britain. Part of the show was that they'd only spend 3 days per dig and try to discover what they could in that time so that they could move onto another site in the next episode. The tension wasn't artificial. They really only had 3 days.
@@robertterhune4965
It isn't re-packaged, its one of the earlier Time Team shows.
The history of The British Isles be it Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Isle Of Man, Jersey, And England go back to all the to prehistoric times
Pre historic yes. But not too far for a lot of the area. At least not much past say 12,000 YA. There was a fair amount of ice around. But yes there is a lot of history prior to New Grange even we will never know about.
25:42 I can see an interesting feature in the field next to the one they dig in (left hand side). Who does, except for me?
Watching the blacksmith pound away makes me cringe having carpal tunnel myself
Thanks for uploading these video's!
The show ran from 94 to 2014. They don't have grey hair in this vid, must be from when it first aired . Why do people just copy someone elses work and don't even give the credit or at least season/episode
Lol. Gotta appreciate how they used to do this. 5 hours with a drone and this is all done.
Ah the good old days, when being a drunk tv presenter was socially acceptable!
hair dye really does make this host look younger
Straight 1990's Love the hair Tony!😘♥️😂😎

Seeing tony with hair threw me off for a sec. 🤷🏻♀️
Vic is so talented
Baldrick?!
There's more drinking in Ireland, they should have had five days....
Was anything else ever found or was there even further digging?
Omg look at that hair!!!! ❤ u tony!
Mick looks the same in every episode but TR ...one day half a beard another one and nearly Bald Rick.
Gentleman with the bullhead has his way!
@ 10:11 Does anyone know the Publisher or Year of publication of this book ? I am finding others by the same Translator but not This exact copy unfortunately , I would really like to get this exact book if i can . Cheers and thanks in advance .
It's a prehistoric book. We found it as vellum. There really isn’t an original except the leather volume. Look for a copy of 'An Táin'
@@riohenry6382 ya im familiar with the history of it .. I just wanted to try to find that Exact book thats in this episode is all . All i find are newer copies with different covers unfortunately . Cheers
With the advance of technology…LIDAR will show what’s buried…
Ssssoooo... why are they depicting lignite as dark blue? It's shiny black.
Maybe to be seen better

I just want to know why on earth he had 3 palaces in the SAME PLACE?! Having 3 OK, but in the same place? Should just have one big one
the Neill.owned North Ireland.. cost him a hand since he cleave it off to lay claim to his shore before his viking adversary could lay his hand on the shore.
Does anyone know the contents of Phil's tool box?
9 year old : " I have a friend who wants to be an archeologist, do you have any advice?"
Good luck hearing that from a kid ever again.. at least in America
Sad but true
That Gaelic sound like dutch language
I have a hard time believing this takes only three day!
Alas it did. I always found that 3 day limitation a down side of the show
Yep, three days, only a few times did they break that limit, but it had to be for something really spectacular. Every member of the team had regular jobs at colleges and archaeological societies, except for Tony who had acting gigs, so they could only get a few days off their regular jobs to film the episodes. Also, it was only ever supposed to be them going in and doing an evaluation to determine if there is something there and if so then does it need further study? Protected? Or is it just so far gone or so little info can be gleaned from it that there is no point in protecting or studying it? Several of the places time team visited warranted further studies and protection, some of them have been dug and studied by teams of archaeologists after they were found on time team.
I suppose a tv show had to have some structure and something driving the tension on!
So Cool! Long hair Tony.
worms are the least nasty bug you might find in the ground lmao. id be more scared of big ass june bugs or cicadas. (idk if they have those in europe and the uk, but they are gross)
oooh! look at all that ANALOGUE research!
don't know why but just waiting to hear that they had a cunning plan :)
Cool
OMG. He has hair, and lots of it. lol

too many British lookin over Irish land is creepy

So...there are no barbers in Ireland ?
Why do people insist on keeping their god-given hair short?
