I'm addicted to Time team!
Me too . welcome . its going to be a weird intervention if we ever need one . lol
Same here. Time Team has so much to see!
@@paradoxxaudiovisualproduct9430 😆 that's adorable
Better than crack!
A special compliment and thank you to Victor Ambrus! May he rest in peace!
"At least we're not superannuated old hippies." Haha, I love the banter between these guys.
Thank you for posting these, in the states this is one of the only ways we can get these shows. I hope this finds you all well in the United Kingdom, and thank you again
If you have Amazon video there are a few seasons to be found.
@@eirneameans5400 thank you will keep an eye out for it
Plus we don’t have many Roman forts here in the States either. ;-)
@@michael7324 that sir is a true fact
@@michael7324 This pandemic the US has found MANY MANY Roman era type living room forts. I am communicating from one now. lol
My two favorite things about watching Time Team:
1. The archeology
3. Listening to Phil Harding
Love the incredible sketches the gentleman draws.
Tony holding a baby is as natural as Phil with a shovel.
Exactly what I was thinking. Delightful to see him giving Carenza a break and enjoy the small one's company as well.
I really love Timeline. Because ancient Britain is so important to the world. I’m 68 years old and loved history since I was a kid. I love anything British.
I like your nationality, as well as all nationalities from our world. Congratulations for the Brexit (if you are a Briton), keeping your heritage clean and undisturbed!
I'm English and Italian.
I've got to be in there somewhere.
@@iosca40 Bruh, keep politics out of this. You can be a proud Brit and still vote to remain. It's not mutually exclusive. You should not say things like this if you don't know a lot about British politics. The way you phrased it just sounds racist. Raksha Dave, one of the most prominent members of Time Team, has foreign ancestors and she's doing a lot more for British heritage than most Brits!
@@Rymontp Your just another internet bully telling people what they should and should not say. God forbid anyone having an opinion different then yours. Not all Brits enjoy the heel of the German boot upon them. We fought a war to keep that from happening and unless you forgot, it was VOTED on. I really don't see how the comment was racist. Much respect for Raksha but your opinion is questionable at best.
what i like most, at the ned of the day, they all sit together and have a few beers. and discuss the days work and finds. much easier in a relaxed atmosphere..
Ahhh, The arch nemesis of Time Team. Roman Forts and Roman Villas.
47:04 - Looks like a surveyor's plumb bob. They haven't changed much over the centuries and have always needed to be pointed to align with exact spots on the ground. The Romans were brilliant surveyors. I think one of these Time Team episodes even demonstrates Roman surveying technique.
Can’t remember what episode, but yes they do demonstrate a Roman surveying technique in another episode.
Used it against modern gps and it was within a couple feet i saw that episode also
I love this episode--frustration all around, and then some gorgeous finds at last. An open mind leads to discoveries--and we saw Carenza's darling baby!
We will miss Victor Ambrose and his talent for beautiful art creations.
Victor passed 10 Feb
RIP
That's a shame. I thought him very talented. He'll be missed.
Awe, that’s very sad to hear. May he rest well.
Well, doggone it! Victor was a favorite of mine. RIP!
Oh man that is a huge loss. His images were fantastic.
Great to see Tony Robinson still active, so glad I got to meet him years back on one of his Scottish digs
@totte kotte see kids this is what we call being type cast lol
@totte kotte ... no. Are you trying to be funny?
@totte kotte Yep, you have no idea how much I resisted calling him that 😆I felt like Father Ted when he met the actor for Victor Meldrew
@@Maesterful That was the first episode of Father Ted I saw, and I was in hysterics. Especially as One Foot In The Grave was one my father's favourite shows and he used to imitate Victor Meldrew all the time! Ha ha!
@@WaterShowsProd I don't believe it!
God I really want some of Victor's drawings. They're amazing
I totally love Time line, I am a total history buff and you guys are something else. Keep up the good work!
I learned something new. I had no idea how the geophysical worked if I pronounced that correctly until the explanation and diagrams with the gentleman you sat down with very interesting
Time Team is the greatest !! I’m in Texas (USA) and I so wish we had a show or archeologists on a show as great as Time Team
Poor Phil, digging in a roman get up.
Where is Matt?
He's good at that stuff.
The TimeTeamGang: "Hey Mate hold the baby when we go to break." 35:04
Land was often granted to former soldiers after their retirement. Is it possible that a retired soldier-turned-farmer would use the military ditches he was taught to dig in the battlefield to ring his wheat field?
Good theory...and plausible. Well done.
I'd be interested in follow-up investigations of these sites after the team has packed up.
I agree watching them come so close to finding something and then the last day nothing 🥴 I want them to go back and keep digging I just watched one and they were so close but nothing I felt like saying KEE DIGGING ‼️
Why only three days. I know these blokes have more time on their hands.
Do a search. I ve read continuations of digs exist. Seen the links on comment boards of other episodes
@@michael7324 lol no they dont Phil is working on the Waterloo Dig at Hugemont Farm for the last 10yr, the others work for the British Historic Trust, Mick Ashton was a Professor of Archaeology, they are all academics so no they dont have alot of time on their hands hence 3day exploration digs. If the digs warrant extra time local volunteer archeologist or enthusiasts continue with the work.
I enjoy watching time team.
Enjoying watching Time Team Classics on You Tube, looking forward to new episodes this summer
13:13 me being a nurseryman... spades are primarily cutting tools. Etymology. From Latin spatha ("a type of sword"), from from Ancient Greek ( ) spathe , "broad blade " / used properly, in a cutting motion from either left to right or vice versa it is an excellent design, sorry Phil shovels and spades are used differently. Greetings from the sunny climes of Basle, Switzerland.
Thanks for straightening Phil out. From a 97 year old farm boy from the Ozark Mountains of Southern Missouri in the U.S.A.
Both words have the same root. It is not a borrowing-loanword. www.etymonline.com/word/spade en.wiktionary.org/wiki/spade
Spade and Shovel are used interchangeable and have been for decades if not centuries. Words can have more than one meaning and those meanings don't always have to align with their etymology.
If Phil asks for a spade you know what he's wanting, and it's not what he had in his hand at that moment.
@@TestECull Ace of Spades, he, Phil was questioning the 'poor' design of spades used by the Romans, remember?
@@TestECull Spades and Shovels are as you say are used interchangeably, top!
Obviously the climate is quite different, but this area so reminds me of the Piedmont region of North Carolina.
Thanks for the information video!!!!
I enjoy every time I see all of the digging and history to
RIP Victor.
Oh! :(
@@alexd5028 he passed on the 10th of this month
I need to to go visit England. Just about all the Time Team shows I've watched is always cold and or raining. My kind of weather and it's FULL of history. Lol
You and me both! Love the rain, love history. Would love to dig around the U.K.!
I love these!
Could it have been an encampment? The Roman military was a surprisingly cautious animal & when invading wild lands had a tendency to establish some tents & a few patrols at the first stop while the scouts went looking for a better site to build the fort. Kind of like a beach head in modern warfare.
Me too..: did u see Tony’s dig in Egypt? I just watched it...he handles those Tombs like a Rock Star!!
Why does Tony appear in the thumbnail like he's starting a scrum in the pub?! lol
Baldric! Oh man, good to see Tony Robinson! This seems like a very cunning plan? “As cunning as a fox who's just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University?”
The trouble with living in the past is knowing what lies ahead, and it isn't nice!
Sometimes I think Phil could find a roman fort here in Minnesota! Just Joking!
Love Time Team, but I always hated the forced drama with the 3 day limit! I get the point of a short archaeological dig, but yet.
The reason for the three day limit has to do with most of the team also working at universities. They dig on the weekends and then return to teaching the rest of the week. It isn't some sort of arbitrary deadline, it's one required out of necessity.
It's not forced drama, it's scheduling conflicts between the archaeologist's university gigs and production constraints getting episodes out weekly.
If you want forced drama look at American TV.
5 days would be expensive and a laundromat would need to be included 😊
The picture this paints for me is an over night camp for an army on the march, possibly centered on an existing farm and with the ditches facing the most likely line of attack. When the Roman army moved on the farm lived on and saw use during the Roman occupation. Over time the ditches got filled in with various bits which included the lightly used coin from the invasion era and everything that came after.
Don't forget that Caesar Invaded in roughly the same spot nearly 100 years earlier.
Never knew that. Thanks for the info!
@@nebelwerfer199 Caesar invaded in 55BC and again in 54BC. Both times building many camps during the campaigns but started with a main camp near where this dig takes place.
ua-cam.com/video/o1NdZ87eUWc/v-deo.html 1st invasion
ua-cam.com/video/AOCG8uqaIEk/v-deo.html 2nd invasion
@@tomcrouchman I knew he invaded just didn't know it was in that area. They must have had some presence there after Caesar left and Claudius returned. Funny they used same spot to land.
@@tomcrouchman : This is my thinking. The ditches weren't for a fort but encampments - more temporary fortifications.
Digging ditches isn't very fun. I couldn't imagine trying to do it while wearing full armor.
Love the show. The enthusiasm is contagious. But can someone please give Phil a nail trimmer so he can prune his nasty claws?
Always Splendid and Perfect From Your Friend On YTube,Great Episode
Pretty much the only show that you can trust to tell the truth these days.
Any thoughts for sending the Romans a bill for all this pottery they litter about? One coin hardly dents the cost of a dig !
Why were our ancestors always dropping their money?
Holey pockets.
No bank cards, no bank notes. There were a lot of coins being used, the Romans had a huge army to fund, all in coin. Then you also have a lot of time too which results in millions of people doing millions of actions.
Millions of coins combined with being easy to loose. Just think about how often you see a penny on the street.
Same reason we're always dropping our money. Coins are easy to lose.
Love the LONG trenches But so sad to find that once again there was no roman fort:-(
Is Tony .... by saying "scotched" saying that "it was NOT a Roman fort/fortress"?
I was a helicopter mechanic and having in Vietnam and spent at least 2,000 hours in the air in helicopters. I am always worried when they go up. I've watched all the time team episodes so I know there wasn't that bad a helicopter episode.
You don't see much of the helicopter in this episode but it is a Bell Jet Ranger with floats that can be inflated in case of an emergency landing on water. It probably makes passengers feel safer. However, I also worked offshore oil rigs as a helicopter mechanic. In most cases, a helicopter will not stay upright on those floats. They land on the water and then turn over with the floats up and the rest of the helicopter under the water. I find that very scary. It usually costs lives when one lands on the water.
No one on Time Team ever seems concerned when they go up in a helicopter. I'm always concerned when I go up in a helicopter. The number of accidents per flight time is fairly low but, on average, helicopter accidents are much more dangerous than fixed-wing accidents. 🤯
Why is this show so good?
thank you very much!
Poor Neil always seems a little out of his depth🤔 I miss Mick or Francis at these times 😋
What a great bunch of BLOKES. Better luck next time. Great Video.
THANKS
Time Team needs to get Suzanna Lipscombe and Ruth Goodman on their team......British Women are the absolute best ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why no use of GPR and/or electrical resistivity imaging (ERI), and/or magnetometry, and /or electromagnetic induction (EM or EMI)? Is the traditional ditch method the least expensive first option, with more advanced tech to follow up if things look promising but frustrating?
Found this very interesting
Classic Phil!
I think the magnetics.... could / should run inside the trenches to get the trench depth more. It might be just enough to identify a layer just out of their range. What could it hurt to test. Overlay existing data and see if it changes.
Weird to see Baldrick being this smart in 2021!
I wouldn't be so quick to rule out a fort. 3 days is hardly enough time to be certain. I have the feeling that they were thrown off by all the later Roman activity on the site.
I wish I search for a fort for a living. Dan big ditch 38:00 -say that three times
Spoiler alert. Nope.. 😬 but watch anyway because COOL FINDS!!
luv the show, and luv the people
My question is… why did everything get destroyed ?
there is some flaws about the information they give here.. they were digging out a fort a few ep. ago were the town got flodded by the ocean near the fort and it still is flooded, and in this ep. they say the coastline was much closer back then.. dont that mean the socalled town close to the fort in the previous ep. would be in reach and not under water?
How long really does it take to put on this armor? Scouts and spotters can see for miles. I kinda doubt they were in full armor.
I think Europe is quite full of historic artifacts and buildings buried underground.
Maybe. I own some land where no one has ever lived because it is swamp. But there is wooden waterwell middle of it. It really doesnt make any sense!
@@juhajuntunen7866 How do you know it's always been a swamp?
Its typical peat bog, quite common here and middle of it has small stream.
.Thanks
I don't like the introduction with the fellow who says he's standing in the middle of Stonehenge, because he's not - it's just a background, and it looks really cheap.
Blimmeny Phil, don't lean over too far in yer tunic yeah?
Why does it look like Tony's about to throw some hands in the thumbnail of this vid?
Have they EVER found what they were looking for. Seems to be a good business to get into.
Oh dear. 4thC coin. Not good enough. Need 1stC. Ah well. Back to digging. Only on TimeTeam. Anyone else would have been doing a wee coin dance.
Can anyone tell me please why, as an historian, I find Tony a thinking woman’s bit of crumpet? He’s got more attractive as he’s got older. I think it’s because he makes me 😊
Love every video...U.S.A.....ALABAMA
I love to see Carenzas baby!
Most enjoyable,,,,and frustrating Waiting for the first fort,,,,,,,,,,,l
Carenza 😍
Leave it to Stewart
if there are traces of Roman presence
what's supposed to happen?
@Bogey Might also belong to the Vatican.
@@janneaalto3956
not probably..but sure.!!
The weight is a plumb bob I'm pretty sure of that
was Tony showing off the next generation of TT presentors ???
Short answer: 48:27
Does anyone know the reason why they always have only three days on these archaeological digs? It is sometimes frustrating to me that they stop just when the finds they make become more interesting and they have to stop their dig. 😕
They all have regular jobs digging for Universities and such. These shows are done on their "weekends".
@@johnmullen9478 Oh I see. Thank you so much for your reply.
@@johnmullen9478 And also to keep costs manageable. Even producing three day episodes was very expensive.
@@georgedorn1022 That is a good point George.
Kind of a stupid question to title a video... there is a roman fortress buried in the countryside, just maybe not YOUR countryside.
They always only finding pottery cmon man damn.
16:42... LMFAO
Love these shows! However, that one fella really needs to cut, or at least clean, his fingernails! 31:09
I'm enjoying all your videos. They're excellent. Would you please consider posting them on Rumble or Bitchute also? We're all very tired of youtube's incessant ads interrupting the videos. They seem determined to drive us all away, never mind their liberal bias. You would be treated more respectfully elsewhere. Thanks.
Watch on duckduckgo or forward to the last 30 seconds of a video play those and click on the rewatch arrow and no more advertisements.
I Have. The place is awesome. In the middle of empty space. Amazing
Came all the way from New Zealand to have a look and all I saw was a hilltop and some stones standing up. A real letdown. Thought there would be some guide instructions etc
Stupid question.
So, you're digging trenches. How do you know when you've found a Roman "ditch" when you're essentially digging your own?
They are digging there own but when they are digging down they are looking for Roman fill aka Roman trash i.e. pottery. They are also able to see if the dirt is different then the rest of the area, any burning or clay etc.
If geophys sees nothing they are always right. If a pilot does not trust his instruments he flys in to the ground.
Trench trench... god.. they must get sick of this word trench
Cosplay Archeology.... Who knew that was a thing... Leave it to Tony and the crew. You made my day however gonna need therapy after seeing above Phil's shorts linings. 😂
What a balls up
Poor old geophys hardly ever works. I think they contribute positive results once every 3rd or 4th show.
Let me guess... 3 days? 1:14 Yup.
Time Team is like crack
💚
I don’t appreciate that Timeline has added these History Hits advertisements with Dan to all their videos and I am considering canceling my subscription since I pay extra for Premium UA-cam to avoid ads. I am not interested in Dan’s new channel and I consider his ads a waster of my time and am offended that they have gotten around the removal of ads to Premium subscribers by adding ads at the beginning of every video. Sure, I can and do fast-forward past Dan, but I don’t appreciate it and therefore every video, regardless of quality of content, will get a thumbs down from now on.
