Time Team Specials S19-E03 The Way We Lived Compilation

- Tony Robinson and Mick Aston dig out the best bits of over 200 Time Team episodes to tell the story of how our domestic lives have changed over 10 millennia.
Until about 10,000 years ago our ancestors moved from site to site setting up house where they could find food and water. Then everything changed. People realised they could control the land, stay put and build more permanent and more comfortable houses.
Tony and Mick reveal how those very first houses evolved into what we know today, and find out how settling down changed the way we live.
Mick Aston was a treasure. RIP
“Very footballers’ wives” .... 😮 what a comment! 🙃 Great episode. Very interesting thanks from South Africa 🇿🇦
This series is so wonderful. I must visit England again.
Excellent show, RIP Mick, 1 July 1946 - 24 June 2013.
And Robin Bush has also passed. Beric Morley has Alzheimers. And Mick "The Dig" stopped digging.
A year later and Beric Morley has passed too.
In good news, Mick "The Dig" did stop digging, but it was coz he turned into Mick "The Twig" and is still very active as a dendrochronologist.
What did he pass from?
And he does still occasionally dig. Im very curious how one cross decks from digging to dendro. Seems really random lol
... lotsa diggin ... lotsa finds ... lotsa fun . Great Special !
Was here Nov 16 2019
I agree Mick, my life support system doesn't come on until ten o'clock either!!! 43:17
Cheers mate, got me my belly laughing and laughing fondly at Tony's hilarious presentation of our Professor Mick, "been around since the stone age." Seeing the Team age & their characters is so cool- like Tony's maturation from valuing his movie star look with long hair, cool clothes then Bleached blonde crew cut, to bald on top with a good hair cut, finally with better fitting clothes appropriate for digs & weather. 😍
I've said it before.. Thank you so much for uploading all things TT..
In america that mud and straw mixture is called cob. I live on the same block as a log house built in the 1850s and although not its original cob (it crumbles away after a few decades exposure to the elements) it sure has cob in its joints same as those ancient round houses.
I miss this episode. I'll try to find him but they are hard to find.
Thanks so much for compiling these episodes. They're wonderful, and without your work I wouldn't have access to this connection to my ancestors.
#reijerzaeijer I knew it wasn't yours due to all the ads! lol...
In the Netherlands the Saksen villages are very much the same.
You have, what they call a 'Brink' in the middle of the village and around the farms.
Probably they took their caddle at the end of the day to the middle of the day.
If you visit the Netherlands, visit the little Saksen towns.
Oh and that's not nearby Amsterdam 😂
IS IT OVER A DYKES? XD.
Fascinating 🙂💗💐
even if i had seen it already. it is nice to see it a second time.
Ha! No wonder I couldn't find it. Thank-you so much :)
It's called The Flower Duet, from Lakme.
dear Peter Reynolds, Beric Morley,R.I.P😢
Interesting music choices for this one. "Night On Bald Mountain" is about the devil partying with his demons all night on a mountain in Ukraine or Russia.
O absolutely love the programs
Except the added music is for me. Jarring
Get a little sad every time I see Mick on one of these re-runs.
I thought they took up farming so they could drink more beer?
Can anyone tell me what the song is that starts at about 23:39? I seem to recall it's from Romeo & Juliet but can't find it!
It is from the opera Lakme'
I know I must have missed this somewhere, but is there a reason why Prof Mick always wear the same stripped sweater? I have watched this show for many years. Thanks.
I seem to recall his producer gave him grief about his Levi shirts being to drab and a family member had just given him the striped one and it stuck (=
And depending on the weather he had matching socks, cap and fingerless gloves!
What I heard was that the producers asked him to wear something a little brighter, and he went and found the most gaudy obnoxious thing he could get hold of, as sort of a joke. Only they thought it was terrific... and the rest is history. There wasn’t just one, though- he had quite a number of them.
I have to imagine that he had a bunch of them sent to him made by fans.
@@RKHageman he was always a wonderful free thinker & rebel. I loved his spirit & generous soul.🥰
personally,I think the whole Time Team crew should have been knighted.
Unless the Mesolithic folk added salt to their caviar, it would have been very bland, though nourishing. And anyone who has ever eaten fresh sturgeon would value it highly on taste or texture. It only becomes rather nice when brined and smoked. Did they trade for sea salt?
Re sturgeon, it, should be “ would NOT value it”.
One thing that used to immediately make me hit the mute button during a Time Team episode was when Guy started talking. If you were to believe him, everyone who had the Romans show up should have felt honored to have their country taken away from them and rented back to them (unless they decided you would be more profitable as a slave.) And of course their "civilizing" influence didn't start until your culture was wiped out and no one would ever know if they civilized you or the other way around. It also matters how you define the word "civilized."
When you look at the modern houses shown at the beginning and the end of the film, all in LBC cavity wall construction, you realise what poor quality materials have been used to an antiquated design. As per the Medieval village of Plympton with its victorian facelift frontages, the modern houses with double glazing windows represent a fashion rather than a scientifically based well insulated contruction technique. Despite the fact that these dwellings are worth more than a million in some towns, behind the facade the standard is almost rubbish.
I see they cut out all the parts where Francis was insisting upon ritual for the most inconsequential of finds.. broken bit of pot in a trench... Ritual! according to Francis. A spear head at a bridge landing? Ritual! and all the ritual was to give tribute to the ancestors or some other ancestor worship. according to Francis, taking out the trash is ancestor worship ritual, defending your bridge is again ancestor worship ritual. Farting in your roundhouse is ancestor worship ritual according to Francis if you count all his calls for ritual.

Good point Tony 👉🏻Maybe native British oughta eat more caviar, bring that native birthrate up so they dont have to import from other continents
avoid verbal orders pls
