It has dawned on me, that Phil with all his laughter and banter and knowledge and enthusiasm, has a deep respect for Human Life. He is really a very decent chap through and through!
Oh Victor you were a cornucopia of talent. A skilled artist, sculptor, mason, a vast number of etc. Your vast skills are sorely missed.
Thousands of people with actual talent-victor isn’t even a blip.
@@Invictus13666 Clearly some people lack the talent for grace and good manners. Victor had real talent.
@@JamesF0790 Or some people have zan actual eye for talent and aren’t sheep.
Victor was a stick figure hack.
@@Invictus13666 Clearly you aren't one of those people with an eye for talent.
@@JamesF0790 Heh. Because I don’t wish to join you and the rest of the herd fellating Vicky?
You will get so worked up over a differing opinion. What a sad little fella you are.
Stuart is almos always right. I find it amazing how much he can deduct from the landscape combined with old maps. Brilliant!
I adore Phil to bits! He is so respectful and careful! :)
I was going to add a comment but you put my sentiment word for word. Phil is an incredibly respectful human being. A definite favourite of mine.
Mick always had to have his stripes visible, if you couldn’t see his shirt or sweater, he had stripey gloves! Rest In Peace my colorful fellow ❤️
INDEED!!!!! Miss him....
A very sad loss indeed for lovers of Time Team and simply, Mick himself, a special human being.
Even his brolly 😁
I have to admit the episode I watched and spotted him sporting matching stripey socks melted my heart a bit❤
His lovely wife knitted them for him. So sweet!
I love the lady who’s like, “The bones are really fragile, so they need to be extremely careful,” followed by them violently sifting materials at the dig site.
I laughed at that too! :D
Same exact reaction here!
@@emk7132 "no bones yet"; Perhaps they've been turned to dust by the shaking?
Same thought I had. 🤣
They are not sifting through bones. You took the video cut out of context. They know what they are doing and would never search for bones that way.😳
Victor's forensic facial reconstruction. The bredth of his talent was astonishing.
That was not forensic, merely artistic.
Victor always was the "Quiet One" who simply did his "thing" behind the scenes with great skill and with modesty.
@@Invictus13666forensics requires a touch of artistry, for example, drawing a criminal's face based solely on incredibly vague witness description
@@willowmoon7 look up the definition of forensic. Then consider again that forensics has absolutely zero to do with viktor’s stick figure doodles.
@@Invictus13666 please slowly re-read my comment and come back to me if you have any questions :)
I loved the bit at the end where Tony said: unblemished human being ... beautifully said Tony xo
About thirty years ago I had the experience in Kodai Kanal, South India, of walking past a Leper begging for ... so sad and I've never forgotten it.
Somehow for me this is one of the most impressive digs, maybe because of the sculpture that brings these people back to life.
Thank you so much and I can’t wait to see the new digs.
The Dies Irae from Mozart's Requiem is a nice touch.
This is my favorite version of Dies Irae, by The Monks of the Abbey of Notre Dame. Haunting.

Thank you! Shazam was completely useless...
It really hammers down the appalling conditions we archaeologists sometimes have to withstand! :D
The depth of that well is crazy .
That suspenseful moment with the choir music in the background as Phil recovers the bones was brilliant
The song is Mozart's Requiem which was written as a funeral music. Makes it even more appropriate.
@@gailcbull It was certainly a nice touch as the heavens burst forth and the rain inundated the site.
@@gailcbull Ah, thank you. It was familiar music but I couldn't place it and Shazam had no succes in finding it. Lovely piece and very appropriate.
@@snazzypazzy It's the "Dies Irae", the "Day of Wrath" from Mozaerts requiem if you looking for that particular past - and yes ist's absolutely awesome
@@snazzypazzy "Dies irae, dies illa" transl. "that day is a day of wrath" - about the Day of Judgement
The leap in quality from the last episode of the 7th season to this 1st episode of 8th season is huge. The quality of images, effects, even the incident room!
well, more production budget by the TV channel lmao
I love Phil I would love to just enjoy a dig with Phil s stories
This is Season 8 - Episode 13. Aired 1 April 2001.
I always want to know when these episodes aired. Thank you for providing that info!
According to the episode guide I have got, this is actually Episode 12. And the air date was 25 March 2001, there were not 13 episodes in this series unless you include Specials.
@@Glassgirl2009 Don't know. I got my info from Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Team_(series_8)
That explains the fashion sense :p
Victor is unusually talented. Would like to know his life story.
Look up his obituary online. Guy is a legend! :)
He has several books out. Worth funding them!
Yes, so do I.
He has died, however his life story is long, varied and very interesting, there is much information available, online and in print. Much accomplished, very well regarded and remembered man.
Here’s a Time Team tribute after his passing ua-cam.com/video/UAIdU8uILek/v-deo.html
I love this show, I try to watch two a day. I think I have a crush on Phil, what a smile
Dont we all, dont we all
Glorious raging weather sequence in tune with Dies Irae! A perfect episode crowned by Master Victor's poignant lepper sculpt of an unblemished human being.
I have never watched this episode before and it is magnificent. Love the accurate maps! The music during the storm was excellent!
Those poor souls having to suffer such a hideous disease. .. Another great doco, thanks Time Team.
We should hope and pray that it isn't still "catchy!"
@@IngeNaning2 leprosy still pretty much exists in ever corner of the world in every country even here in the united states where I live
Leprosy is Hansens Disease and left untreated turns into the worst form. It is treatable and curable caught in the early.
“Hansen’s disease (also known as leprosy) is an infection caused by slow-growing bacteria called Mycobacterium leprae. It can affect the nerves, skin, eyes, and lining of the nose (nasal mucosa). With early diagnosis and treatment, the disease can be cured. People with Hansen’s disease can continue to work and lead an active life during and after treatment.” CDC
@@WhirlyPearly well whatever it is its alive and well in the united states especially on the west coast with its massive homeless population and third world.living conditions
@@richardgrace4500 omg shut up
So with a twinkle in his eye, a touch of delight in his voice and a coy smile he says; "...So that means with a bit of luck tomorrow, we should be excavating bodies!!😄
It feels odd. They're so polite and respectable to each other in the early episodes.
2:10
"This is definitely medieval, is it?"
"This might not be, but this definitely is"
*drops the potentially non medieval artifact like trash.
Best adventure ever... Tony, an unblemished human being. No more beautiful words have been spoken... Thank you. 💕💕
Is it just me or am I the only one that could listen to Jenny speak about literally anything for hours?
I'm with you on that. I hope she won't be offended if I say she's lovely
I'd buy the drinks if Jenni Butterworth and Paul Blinkhorn would let me just sit there and listen while they discussed anything. Two brilliant people with wonderful speaking voices.
Nate you got it bad for Jenny
@@davidleighton2780 Her and Alice Roberts...... Could listen to the both of them just talk forever.
@@profaneangel0842 well, she was known as tt’s bicycle, so you might still have a shot.
I live in the United States and always wonder how many non-Brits also watch? We don't have much history available to us like the U.K. where your almost guaranteed to find an ancient bone or coin whenever you dig 3 or 4 feet down.
Not necessarily true in either the united states or the u.k..... you wont find "ancient bone or coin" whenever you dig 3 or 4 feet down just anywhere in the u.k only where people settled or passed through and normally that is only where there is water or has been water and the same can be said of the united states.... I guarantee you if you go next to a main river like the Mississippi or any other major river way in any state you will find remains of some kind and odds are some form of buildings or habitation... also if you are in the south or north east (no higher than maryland) odds are you can find both revolutionary war and civil war artifacts aplenty
Also if you want to see some really cool shit go to new york or washigton DC or Philadelphia (and old city that dates back in the history if the country and has subways) and go into the subway tunnels these cities have entire cities and roads under ground that are the older cities that the new cities have been built in top of
Well I'm non-Brit ☺️🤚
The music in the whole episode is very impressing. Especcially during the storm at about 40:00 it becomes really scary... Very well done Time Team. I am happy to have many many episodes yet to watch.
That is the "Dies Irae" - "day of wrath" from Mozarts Requiem - one of the most awesome pieces of music ever written :)
@@ErnestoBrausewind pardon my terribly late reply to your post. I too was curious to know about the music selection chosen for the storm segment. I tip my hat to you sir.
so sad that such beautiful buildings are gone
Love Mick's new sweater, mitts, and umbrella!
Victor’s talent is mind boggling.
...love the music from the Robertsbridge Codex (one of the earliest extant keyboard manuscripts) - does my musicologist's heart good...
Intruiging bit of info - thank you for sharing! :)
I love this Series;so glad I found it! I do have one question though: were there ever 3 consecutive days without rain in GB 🇬🇧 ever?
I k r ?
When you're living on a island, rain is way of life. 😄
Yes, more frequently than you'd think from this. :)
So the rumours go..
One of the very best Time Team episodes..
This is fantastic!! Going from part 1 to part 2 was such an exciting moment. The only thing missing are Phil's shorts!!
Thank you !!!
I love that Mick always dresses in such beautiful colour!
It’s a schtick for tv. Seriously.
Love this program! Keep them comin' fellas.
GREAT WORK!
You know, watching this series makes you think it rains 90% of the time in England... "Is not their climate foggy, raw and dull?"
It is.
My great great Aunt who was a nurse, worked with Leppers in India, we have black and white photos! Always fascinated me. She passed when I was c. 4-5 and I cherish the few early memories I have of her and the stories my father told me about her.
"This wasn't just any old leper hospital". ... that's not a phrase you hear very often.
Love these shows. Thank you.
Wow! What a fantastic TT episode! It checked off all the boxes for me. However, in my opinion the best part of the program came at the very end when Tony was looking at the the clay reconstruction of a leper and he commented that underneath the pustules, caved in nose and other changes to the skull and skin due to leprosy there had once been a living, breathing and feeling human being. Sometimes when I see archeology shows I feel that the archeologists have forgotten that the pile of bones they’ve dug up was once a living human being with hopes, dreams, thoughts and experiences just like the person who dug their bones up. Of course, we can’t know what those were, but just recognizing that fact would and should bring a sense of dignity and respect for the person that once was. I personally would like to see museums, exhibits, etc. to stress this fact much more. Who knows if someday our remains will be dug up on an archeological excavation? I would hope that if those remains belonged to a loved one (I plan to be cremated) that the archeologists, museum curators and visitors to the exhibitions would take the time to wonder about the person who the bones belonged to and what life might’ve been like for them.
Yes I agree but understanding their feelings are just professional and sometimes,somehaw we will be one of...That's why here in Brazil, me and my beloved did a document asking (it's our desire) to be cremated...
I saw a comment in a science magazine recently, that one of the matters archaeologists now should consider is how would the deceased and their family would have wanted any remains treated. "Eternal rest" doesn't sit well with having your bones, centuries later, contemplated for imperfections.
This is the most successful dig I thing I've seen on this show. I've always wondered what happens after the 3 days are up? Do the just abandon it or does another team come in to continue the dig?
Usually it is abandoned though the whole dig has been documented in detail so another team could continue where Time Team left.
When tony just drops the other pottery find when the guy says he’s not sure one of them is medieval! 😂
If you neglect air resistance, an object falling for six seconds will fall for over 350 metres, or 1160 feet.
Thank you, I was trying to find the formula and it was driving me nuts!
how on earth would they have dug a well that deep?!
Interestingly, in Aus. we call your wind pump a "windmill" which turns a crankshaft to convert circular motion to vertical up and down which drives the "push-pull" water pump which is submerged. Coincidently, my father was a well borer and a WW1 army engineer who drilled for water in France in camps behind the front lines, as a water supply for the camps, pumped to the surface by your wind pump, our windmill.
Well done Tony and crew! Good story.
Tony: This is definitely medieval, is it?
Dick: I'm not sure about that, but that one definitely is.
Tony: *throws the other piece on the ground like it's nothing*
The Victorians seemed to have liked demolishing historic buildings. Thank goodness for John Lubbock.
How the heck is that well over 200 metres deep? What?!
That's what I was thinking too. Surely it couldn't have been dug that deep by hand. Maybe it was re-dug during the war years by machine bore?
Obviously done by an ancient civilization with now lost technology that was brought by alien visitors...sorry..could not help myself...being that annoying guy
I would like a show on how they would have dug a well that deep!
I think that they said that the well was used for the WWI Barracks as well.... Probably got deeper then.
@@lazystalker1 :Wells that deep and deeper have been dug by hand. Remember a lot of 1200 ft and more mine shafts and incline shafts were all dug by hand in the past before any mechanical means were available.
This is a superbly made episode of a great series. There's always something a bit disturbing about the excavation of human remains as archaeological evidence: the Dies Irae sequence, and the shots of Phil with a skull, alluding to the Yorick moment in Hamlet without overdoing it, acknowledge the humanity involved. Without being portentous: "Can we go home now?"
Thanks so much! Keep them coming :)
Seeing as it's a leper hospital I wonder if there were any people there that actually had psoriasis in that time frame most people didn't know the difference between the 2.
I was wondering that, too--I hadn't specifically thought of psoriasis, but did they have some other disease that was taken to be leprosy.. That would explain all those bones that didn't look like the bones of leprosy patients. And psoriasis is a good call; I had a boyfriend who had it, and if you didn't know what it was, what caused it, or if it was catching, it could be pretty alarming.
@@ceridwenattwood5784 I've had psoriasis for going on 50 years and way back in high school I wrote a paper on it for English so I can't remember the source but I'm thinking it might have been a NPF (national psoriasis foundation) magazine. They actually stated in the article that all the way back to biblical times psoriasis was often mistaken for leprosy. Reading that as a teenager was horrifying especially since I had 90% coverage back then I'm down to about 60% now but I'm doing it all natural and my skin is mostly flat now just flaky lol.
@@ceridwenattwood5784 you apparently totally missed the part where they had non leper burials...which is why they had non leper bones. 🙄
Psoriasis, syphilis, and many other skin conditions could have been interpreted as leprosy.
Love it.
Great upload as always. Cheers.
This was very interesting, thank you for the upload.
They need a Weatherman as part of there team.
Useless in the UK, any sunshine is just sheer luck.
To gain more insight into Leper hospitals and colonies, is fantastic!
I love this show!!
The Mozart is a great touch!
Please put season (series) and episode number in the description.
It's great to see that Trimble 4800 GPS unit. I've used it for years.
Perfect edit. With Thanks. Greetings from Denmark
2:14 - the way Tony treated artifacts drove me crazy.
Wonderful episode!
I wonder if the tow-headed child about 18m in is Carrenza's little one.
Thanks for posting.
19:10 banging tune
one of the most interesting in the series I have seen.!
5:44 STEWART! ❤
I would 120% choose him to narrate my life story
So you have the narrator, do you have the story worth narrating?
@@ReapWhatYaSow all lives are worth narrating. There is uniqueness and lessons to learn no matter how much you think someone else's life is boring. Even yours. Its just a matter of depth and understanding
@@tammypanganiban1531 some lives make the best seller list and others go in the 5 for a dollar bin. Since every human is given free will, it is up to the individual with what they choose to do with their time on Earth.
@Mimi Traveler Morgan Freeman
Grim Reaper that’s true for most parts of the world, while others don’t...just glimpses. Barely there apparitions during the night.
the moment at around 2:15 where tony asks if both shards are medieval and the guy says the left one is the other one i am not sure, tony then drops the not sure one in the next shot xD
Thank you
Dang, no subtitles either...please @TimeTeam, think about your french and half deaf fans !
At 2:13, did Tony just toss a piece of roof tile on the ground like it was junk???
Great medieval music! I'm sorry they didn't use that more often.
Thank you.
7:22 that turtle-neck sweater would give Velma (from Scooby Doo) the "Jinkys"!
Was here September 2020
Am I the only one that thinks the leprosy doctor woman is adorable?
She is so gentle in her demeanor. It's soothing to listen her.
God.. I get a very creepy feeling when we were not able to figure out how deep that well was.
How is a well as deep as that dug?
@@kennethedholm1760 determination and effort.
No. I was rather disgusted that a bunch of supposedly educated people fail at basic math and physics.
Requiem in D minor, very fitting..
Does Mick knit his own jumpers and hats?
A first for UK archeology; I believe it but find it rather confusing. Were time team the only archeologists doin land scape archeology? @ 39:20 the 1st, I believe, time team montage with driving music & a scream or 2. Time Team has sumat for everyone. BRILLIANT.
I know everyone hates ads. But if you truly want to support this channel, then watch. That way hopefully with the little bit of ad revenue they get they can continue to make you happy by continuing the amazing episodes. If by watching ads you can contribute your time, then why not...
I wonder if the ads are there due to a copyright issue. "You're showing our show without our permission so we'll put commercials in your video."🤔
@@beagleissleeping5359 you may b right. 🕵️🙃🙈
That isn’t how UA-cam works... only the first 30 secs count towards helping the channel
Phill is zoned out during the dramatic moment at 40:27
Oh, I like Prof. Aston's mittens!!!!
SIR Tony Robinson! Ol' chap! :)
Always breathless...
Among other things, at the time of the hospital, any skin ailment was considered 'leprosy.'
Yes, I think a lot of stage 3 syphilis was called leprosy, either mistakenly or on purpose (since leprosy wouldn't carry the same 'sin' connotation).
@@kelliepatrick519 except leprosy did have the sin connotation, and the expert even discussed it in the very episode you’re commenting upon.
A 6 second fall with no relative air resistance would be ~570 feet...or "a long way down".
Why has no one asked the question how long does leprosy bacteria stay infectious? Can it live in the soil ?
It's not very infectious and readily curable these days.
Stewart does it again Hooray
6 seconds at 1G accel is about 177 meters - call it about 580.5 feet. That 180 meters of tape measure should have hit water if the timing quoted was correct. But even another half second would make it about 208 meters deep - about 682.5 feet.
Basically... when trying to math things out - such as going from time to distance - precision is important
i want someone to find my skull so,meday and be afraid
the weather 😂
what is this "dies irae" music tone taken from? 🤔
44:30 why don’t the buildings they say they located and placed on the map line up with the trenches they dug? How did they “locate” them if they didn’t dig where they placed them.
Who else noticed that Tony just chucked the not medieval one 😂😂😂
I noticed too, but considering what it's made of and that he dropped it on dirt, oh well.
At What time was that?
@@jamesedkins2823 2:14
@@Skyfire_The_Goth thankyou!!!
@@jamesedkins2823 You're welcome.
How does Time Team ever manage to work when it's not raining on the site? It must seem very strange to them!
"With luck we'll find bodies." I understand the dating idea, but personally I like stones more than bones.
Stones don't tell you about diet, health, and ritual burial quite as much as bones can.
I really want to know how deep is the well. I estimated it to be around 150m using D =0.5*g*t^2 where I minus half a second for the time she measures as sound takes time to reach them too. But that doesn't tally with the observation they did with the tapes.
51° 3'46.65"N 1°16'49.06"W
imagine walking a field, suddenly soil under your feet collapses. next thing you realise is you falling down a medieval well hole that's at least 180m (550+ ft) deep.
ridiculous!
The well was clearly covered by a cap stone. But yes, old abandoned homesteads have been discovered by someone breaking through an old well.
