    Never thought I'd see an episode that brought up so little. I'm just glad they're releasing some of these old episodes to UA-cam. The new episodes are good, but nothing beats the old gang!

      No. It’s not the Prof. Just wishful thinking? Have you seen the Prof being interviewed by Richard Herring? V. Interesting - and also talks about Time Team apres-dig fun.

    When I combined the fact that the Time Team were at a pub and near Liverpool/Manchester, I thought, beer, iffy. Then at the end, Phil complained the pub had no real ale. Damn, all that work and no real ale at the local.

    They also put pointed wooden and iron barbed sticks in the bottom of the punic ditch. The attackers also didn't like them up on them. When you stepped on it it went straight through your foot. That brought some tears in your eyes.

    If Aurochs were still stampeding around the countryside I think the ditches and stockades were to keep them from destroying villages, more than preventing guerilla tribal warfare, because that's been ruled out at another fort dig. They didn't attack forts.

    The new opening drums are way way too loud. Tone it the hell down !! it’s so irritating. And then if that wasn’t bad enough you just rudely completely interrupt the program to throw in an advertisement. Just do that in the end or the beginning. Don’t make me come down there !!!

      Except thousands of years feeding the local (and later not so local) population assuring their livelihood? Can you imagine the amount of man-hours filled with back-breaking work? And there surely have been many local ephemeral dramas we will never be able to even suspect, let alone discover.

    In 2000 years time, a team of archaeologists are going to find the network of trenches dug by Time Team in this episode and assume that it was some kind of World War 1 style battle-site... It is going to lead to some wild hypotheses about hitherto unknown military conflicts...

      Because the archeologists all have full time jobs so they take long weekends to make Time Team. After the 3 days some diggers remain to fill in and record what was found

    • @CzechMirco

      Because the people involved have their jobs, but also (from TV show point of view) because it adds element of pressure and tension which usually comes from interpersonal conflict but here there is no conflict what so ever.
