Ah loved Robin Bush, one of those people you just warm to. His sense of humour, visible in other episodes, shone through in this episode. He was one of the great and sadly missed members of time team.
Stumbled on time team purley by accident, was hooked after the first episode. Great archeology. Tony is a great host. Keeps the episode fresh, and supplying plenty of information about the dig. Phil is one of my favorites. You can tell Phil really loves what he dose. Carenza Lewis is my other favorite time team cast member. Bueaty and brains. Loves what she dose also..all the time team cast complement one another very well..I'll watch every episode. Dig on..watching In Minnesota usa.
This was a very happy and classic episode with Mick crabbing about the boundary line they can't dig, Phil's having far too much fun at the siege and doggedly pursuing a trench that didn't make sense, Robin's classic know it all manner and his parlor trick of Tony, Stuart's systematic sleuthing for wall parts, and only John left fading into the background because so many clues were above ground. Solid fun from start to finish and why Time Team lasted 20 years. Besides which the Team seems to have destroyed as much of the landscape as Oliver Cromwell. This is also some of the best cinematography I've ever seen on the program. A total delight.
They in no way whatsoever 'destroyed' the landscape. Cromwell blew up entire fortresses and castles. You prob. don't know that archaeologists will backfill whatever they dig and will resod it too, especially if it is on a property with lawns. Backfilling protects the site and saves it from looting. . I have worked on 11 archaeology digs in Canada & we always backfill. You can visit Greenwich Park and see the location where they excavated a Roman shrine. You wouldnt know they'd been there without signs and knowledge. Open pits are a danger..
Many thanks to you Reijer Zaaijer for making so many episodes of Time Team available for viewing also R.I.P to the Proff. from a avid Australian Viewer.
I just love it….classic Robin Bush. The history, albeit in this case rather gory @ 8:30+ and even a wee bomb to brilliantly shock Tony @ 42:00+. Robin you are respected and missed. Thank you R Z
I think that Phil is a guitar or banjo player. The nails on his left hand are clipped short for fretting and his right has long nails. You'll see it at the end when he's showing pottery at 43:53
Mick The Dig seems like a jack of all trades. Not only he is an archaeologist, he's also a dendro expert and in this episode he's drilling through concrete. Is there anything this man cannot do?
Mick the Dig and Mick the Twig are one and the same person. In the earlier seasons he had a full beard but later he chopped it off and looked very different.
The archeology babes are def one of this show's highlights, as well as the camera operators that are not to shy to go in for a close up when necessary.
david rapp the gratuitous down the blouse shots are rather unnecessary and distracting. Plenty of other channels to pick from if that’s your thing. BTW; If they’d drop those and the “plumber at work” shots of the gents it’d be a fair trade.
@ 25:41 I love the way Tony feigns frustration for the cameras. The interaction with Mick is classic Tony acting even when, with that beginning of a smile, Mick almost breaks into laughter. In reality Tony knows whats going on, but the "drama" is well done. This episode is probably one of Tony's more "overbearing and adversarial" presentations.
It's obviously the result of what the producers want in terms of interaction and dialogue. But yes, Tony is a fine actor and if you suspend your disbelief, it could look quite real.
It’s a crappy way to treat an audience, though. The notion that they need to create that drama so people will be engaged with the show is playing to the lowest common denominator rather than expecting that the audience is intelligent and can care about the subject for itself.
@@ladyflimflam I've found that the only way I can continue to watch is to turn the sound off whenever I see Tony come on. His raving is an insult to your watchers.
watch it carefully you will see that bomb doesnt explode and the line of fire leading to it goes behind the fence well behind it and the bomb is still there after
In 1096, Duke Robert took up the cross on the First Crusade and left the custody of the duchy to his brother William Rufus, King of England. Robert Bellême regained the favour of Rufus and both he and his brothers were in his service on several occasions.[20] In 1098 he captured Elias I, Count of Maine for Rufus, a significant feat.[25]
It seems that Henry V111 and Cromwall was England's version of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. So many episodes show what between them they destroyed of English heritage.
I might be preaching to the choir here, but I'm living in an significant viking town that's not fully excavated or dug. There isn't any more major houses or churches that hasn't been found, but developers can't turn a rock without having Heritage demanding them to put in a crew of archaeologists. They always find something interesting! Things turns out to have been a little different that everyone thought, and objects link the place to far away civilizations. Unfortunatly it is expencive, so city development is slow. I want to know whats down there :(
Marcia W right! I’m in the rural country side of Wisconsin USA, and we have an “old” building in our little town. It’s 150 years old and was a stagecoach inn.
I'm not native in english, but I think I understand it pretty well. Especially in this program, I encounter words I do not follow. But autosubtitle never helps :xD
It’s the uniform changes in the earth such color, density and consistency. You can tell disturbed earth from the natural. Hope that helps. They do make it look easy, it’s not always so obvious. 🧐
Have been binging on TT since I found them a few months ago. Thank you Reijer!! Watching the series "grow up", it's fun to see all the changes and alterations. I really don't like it, however, when they figured "reality tv" type camerawork was necessary. I find the series enjoyable enough in itself without all the funky camera-moving and zooming crap - makes me dizzy! Too bad nice, solid British episodes became Americanized. :(
A hunting arrow for deer? I don't think so. Not big enough if contemporary illustration is anything to go by. Late 12th to 13th C? Because it is not close barbed? That size and style with that barb to socket ratio, more likely to be a fighting head and it could also be later. Looks like a good all round head with a useful range for harassing the softer targets, the less expensively armed. How could we categorize it under Jessop typology? A medium barbed variant on M2? Or something else?
I've watched most of the Time Team episodes and I continue to be amazed that someone hasn't rounded off Tony's pointed little head. Is he what Brits would refer to as a "wanker"?
@@bobbyhood101 Nothing to do with the *BBC* here, just someone who could prompt the other archæologists (he's a good amateur) to give the viewers better information. It was made for *Channel 4,*
I wonder whether John's notable inability to take even a mild 'ribbing' from the rest of the team whenever 'GeoPhys' fallibilities/limitations manifest is a reason? Indeed, he usually seems to perceive even the most good-humoured, non-malicious of criticism as a _personal_ slight against both himself and his vocation! Shame really because it was only ever intended as innocuous banter.

I love the ubiquitous bow tie. Even out at the digs, he was a gent 💕
Robin is the consummate gentleman. He would be a blast at dinner party.

Check out time team extras 😊
Phil was having way too much fun firing that cannon.
I would too though 😂😂
Phil always preferred to no bother trees if it could be avoided and the wee folk did bless him kindly for his love of green things.

I was really glad to find this channel because there are so many episodes I had not seen. Fan from America in Tennessee!
while we all ignore the copyright violations and theft of someone else artistic expression.
Heartbreaking.
RIP Mick Aston
Interesting that the tower is leaning more than the one in Pisa and still does mot seem to be in danger of toppling over...
Phil was having entirely too much fun with that cannon...
He makes me smile to hear his laugh. ..so contagious.

Also quite attractive 🤤 definitely "the one"!
They are making new episodes as we speak. That's just great people.

Lived in Bridgnorth for most of my life! Really cool to see this! :P
So glad to have found all this! Thank you!
Love the time team Thanks for putting up these episodes. good archaeology, good comrades, much info thans again
Robert Bellême was quite a character. One of the wealthiest of his era. At times he held more power than the King...Wiki has a good read on him.
“I think he takes the biscuit”..... might be one of the most British statements.
Yep! It means that they are a major exception. Sal in Yorkshire
42:10 Is my favorite Time Team moment!

And he nearly says the f word pmsl
Ran like a scared rabbit!

Sounds like he spent most of his adult life fighting or preparing to fight. Trust fund kid.
I miss You, Robin. Cheers!
Always love Bridgnorth......so very interesting
American here - had never heard of Time Team before and I've been binging it a lot. Wondering why they don't just send Stuart out 1st?
You can watch it on Amazon Prime if you have it. A little bit better quality video IMO.
*Carianne Adams*
He did start straight away usually but his investigation took time so he rarely actually appeared until day two, sometimes day three.
11:39 I just want to yell, "The Architect Sketch!" LOL
42:38 Tony's face is so funny. That mixture of joy and fear >
Can't wait to hear how Cromwell got that tower to lean!
No I t funny, Phil.
Children on the catapult😢
#300 thumbs up. Thanks again, Reijer.
Robin lighting explosives! Hahahahaha!!
If Phil continues to dig his ditch he could find some Chinese artifacts !
I'm surprised that the locals didn't salvage more stone from the tower back in the day.
There would have been lots of stone from the other buildings of the castle they could use.
It seems that Henry V111 and Cromwall was England's version of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. So many episodes show what between them they destroyed of English heritage.
Henry the five thousand one hundred eleventh?
The monasteries had generally become corrupt through their wealth. Some were basically brothels!

Did they bring large stones with them🤔
@8:36 this guy sounds like a british version of vlad the impailer.
I bet he's been roasting quite nicely in a southerly situated lava like cauldron of perpetual misery.
Belleme was used as the bad guy in the old (but excellent) British TV series "Robin of Sherwood".
In parts of New Jersey they would call him Bobby Fingernails.
I'm sure he was a crazy sadist, but I'm not trusting those who told all the facts about him either.
Always stomping around flailing those short little arms!!!
900 years? 900 years! Wow

It always astonishes me that all these vast quantities of stone so completely disappear.
Toy Pupanbai maybe some was reused over time.
That is from 1000 years of scavenging, which takes up a lot of stone.
Free foundations for all!
Love the show. Hate the ones that are taped with captions on.
My ignorance is showing because I find it hard to figure out how digging a massive trench locates a very early trench/moat...frustrating!
