- Опубліковано 4 лют 2025
- Most of the houses in Nether Poppleton date from the 18th century or later, and yet the village seems to follow a standard planned medieval layout common throughout Yorkshire. Although it's mentioned in the Domesday Book, was this an Anglo-Saxon village? The residents help the team uncover the origins by digging many test pits in their gardens.

I come for the history.. but I stay for Phil’s cut-off shorts.
Don't we all lolol
Tbh he has nicer legs than most women. The man literally has pretty legs 🤣🤣🤣 like damn, Phil. 😳
I call TT *the Phil Harding* show cuz let's be honest...he's why we all tune in 🤣 what a character 👌
That shot the camera man did at the beginning is too hilarious
Hear hear 🙌
Phil reminds me of the fascinating uncle that everyone shakes their heads over and whispers about his antics. One who I would sit enthralled at anything he had to say.
Who else loves the idea of Mick poking around and digging a trench in the garden of his 1960’s bungalow. ❤️
This is a brilliant strategy, to get the best results in a very short period of time! A ‘community’ effort promotes interest; ‘friendly’ competition; an almost OCD curiosity in the residents part.
Mick Aston's enthusiasm for public engagement in archaeology will always be a delight.
♡
It always annoyed me when other archaeologists complained, as though only the elite could take part!
@@andybyers2490 If you read Tony Robinson's autobiography (or listen to it,) you find out that he & Mick actually knew each other before Time Team. Tony & his wife had joined a couple of Mick's archaeological events, on their own, because they lived in Bristol & that's where Mick worked!
❤️🔥
@@TheLonesomeBricoleur i knew the idea of the show was primarily Mick's, i knew he had some loose relationship with Tony who was an amateur historian/archaeologist, and had asked him if a show based on archaeology was feasible. Mick I think was always going to try it, even at a loss. Tony was able to give him the show he wanted, and it worked out. for awhile. til the producers started tinkering with it.
@@maxdecphoenix From what I've heard, Tim Taylor is the proper creator because he's the one who actually wanted to put in the effort as a producer & make a legit archaeology show. He thought it couldn't work due to the long-term nature of digs, but Mick said that they probably could actually do it & suggested that the 3-day format might actually be perfect with the right people. Tony didn't enter the picture until later somehow, even though he had indeed known Mick for *years* after attending public archaeology events in Bristol & at least one trip to Greece (during which Mick wound up angrily throwing a human skull away from his group when it was offered for sale by a local.) Robinson's autobiography is a *superb* listen if you like that sort of thing!
Phil, "Think I got a pair of legs, down here." best bit of archeology joke.
I love the image of Mick doing archeology in his own yard, at his 60s bungalow ... In a stripey sweater lol ..
Hahahaha I bet he tore his yard up looking for Ancient pottery.
The sight of the whole village population coming together to find out more about their village is absolutely heartwarming!
And happy to dig messy holes in their lovely lawns
I am curious why they are using CB radios in the modern age of cell phones. Is there no cell service in that village? I live in the mountains at 9700 feet, and no radio works well here. I did learn no part of Britain even comes close to the altitude I live at. I like that those people can live in such a flat, and boring place, and still be happy!. I tried to live in Kansas, and it was pretty horrible, and it looks a lot like Britain, except I lived on the high plains at a much higher altitude than exists in Britain. Those are some hardy people to live in such a place so flat, and ugly - I certainly could not live there. Suicide was a number one killer in Kansas, and I knew why.
@@MegaMeaty According to wikipedia, the 12th season was filmed in 2005.
Dissing someone's country because YOU find it ugly is a pretty shitty character trait. You might want to work on that.
@@juliajs1752 oh my bad. I had a cell phone in 2005 howerver. I had motorola x made in Texas. I'm not trying to dis any cuntrey. I was trying to say how much I respect someone who lives in what I think is such horrible place. I don't think I want to visit such a place though, and those people just don't know any better, because they live there. The southern US is much like that, and we do make fun of them. There was a couple from Florida that wanted to visit my town, and it did not go too well for them. People that visit a town at ten thousand feet should do a little research first, because the air is half as thick as British air, and you will go straight to the hospital for hypoxia like they did.
@@MegaMeaty respectfully, you have no idea where those residents have lived before or what parts of the world they've experienced. The Brits travel far more than people in the states - in fact your country has a bit of a reputation for being ignorant about the different people, places, and cultures outside your borders. I'm happy that you're happy with the place you've made home. Personally, the altitude of where I live has never been a consideration to me - I'm more interested in things like the local community, public transport connections, and what services are nearby. But it matters to you and that's okay. You're being rude about where other people live though, saying it's boring, assuming they've never been anywhere like where you live, and even comparing them to people you used to laugh at. It's weird. This is Time Team, a show about British archaeology. Maybe go watch a documentary about living at altitude if that's the energy you wanna bring to the comments 👍
As a New Zealander, I am just **amazed** at how easy archaeology seems to be in the UK!
You dig at the bottom of your garden and it seems like **almost every time**, you will find Roman or Middle Ages relics! I am **so envious** of that!
Here, you dig a hole and the most you will find is **beer bottles!**
If you have the time to wait those beer bottles will turn to history🧴🏺
And old lampshades made from the tattoos.
I found flint/chert artifacts in my garden in Tennessee.
South Africa to 😳😁I just want to go to one and enjoy my 60s digging and cleaning
I have always wanted to be an archaeologist!!! I once wanted to dig in Egypt, but after watching Time Team, I am of mind I would like to dig in the UK. The weather is much better there as well!!!
30:00 That pose by John might be what Phil was referring to about "a proper days work" or lack of.
Phil's reverence for the child burial made my skin go goosey. I mean, the consideration and respect, as Dr mick points out, is a forgivance the church may not offer. But there Phil is, dispelling the terrors of baby ghost.
Ah... sweet colorful Mick. How we miss him.
From Wisconsin, USA I love this show, the people in it, the digging, just EVERYTHING about it! I hope UTUBE will continue to bring us more! Can not say enough about how wonderful this show is!! A heartfelt Thank You to all involved!
11:22 This little story by Mick really shows the power of Victors visualisations. Immediatly gives it a beautiful context
Yeah! they can find a bustling viking street and a grand mansion from digging up a twig and a leaf in a puddle in a random garden. This program is parody material!!! look it's a twig! this is from the broomstick of number 34 viking street, where they used this leaf in a pack of playing cards. yah right.
@@monstercolorfunco4391 have you ever watched an episode and payed attention? Or is this just an easy way to ridicule something you don’t understand?
@@the_videomatic I am only on my 50th episode. It was a joke time twots. Time team is great and it is also a great subject for parody. Did they find the venus of willendorf or some dead dog legs? tell me what they found on this episode? no mosaic, no metal, just a convent which was probably of dubious virtue. Let's put the dead dog legs in your local museum lol.
Love the way that were able to get the whole small town involved with the test pit digs to find out where most of settlements were... Should try and do some more of those. so much can be learned from doing that, and get more interested and involved.
It was wonderful
I will say I very much enjoyed this episode. It brought a smile to my face. I love to see the way you enter act with this community. I am from the United States and I have watched almost every episode of every season I can find on line. I love this show and love that it has brought me to be even more interested in history. It has opened my eyes to look at other countries history. This is a very fascinating program. I have even recommended it to all my friends and family. Thank you for being here and sharing your finds and history with the world.
Great comment! Many thanks for putting into words an experience I can share with you.
I think Time Team is the worst thing that ever happened to me. Since "discovering" this show, 97% of the other historical and/or archeological documentaries out there seem like sensationalist rubbish. Discovery, History, NatGeo - all unwatchable now. Once I've run out of the original TT episodes, I guess I'll just chuck my TV out the window and actually start using my computer for work (but in honor of Phil, I'll secretly be wearing my Daisy Dukes with a sport coat on all Zoom calls.)
Juat start over. Works for me. Enjoy!
National Geographic didn't used to be sensationalist crap. 😿
Just start over they never get old
Wait a couple of years, and then watch them all over again. It's what I do, works just fine.
I think Phil would approve, knees to the breeze!
I am in love with this beautiful country side...just gorgeous! I live in the Southwest US and can only dream of this much green.
I love that this episode was so collaborative with the community! I also wish that I could participate in something like this.
This may have been my favorite so far. The people living there so enthused about being part. Superlative.
I love Raksha. Mainly because she was born 4 days before me but she is a great archeologist as well 😊
i've seen her recently,
Rakshah.. (spelling?)
on a programme with Dr Alice Roberts..
i first saw her on time team too.. (with pink hair 🙂)
digging for britain
What a great thing to do in getting all the local residents involved. Nice work Time Team 👍
Thank you SO much for all you did, I wish I could buy a complete collection. I live in Washington State USA and we have a lot of local archeological sites here, though they don't date back thousands of years. This is my new favorite TV show and it's rekindled my lifelong interest in archeology. I'm currently planning on studying computer science in college but watching this show has made me realize that someday when I've made enough money I'll probably switch careers and follow my passion for the past.
Don’t you have a lot of immigrants? You can learn by there history. The people who made your country. You can learn by the way they lived there lives before they went to America. I really like that someone from the states watch this program😀I’m from Sweden. Maybe my ancestors were Vikings and went to the UK?
@@Emmywe8002 a lot of the best sites are native American, but there are also plenty of abandoned industrial sites (mostly mining operations, small towns, railroad depots, etc) but those often aren't more than a 100 years old. In some ways that can make it cooler though, since it's easier for many humans to identify with people from a few generations ago instead of thousands of generations ago.
Do it! Follow your passion!
@@cdd4248 already on the path to a CS degree. Maybe later in life.
Southern Oregon has had at least 2 archeology sites that date back as far as 11,000 years ago. Back before Mount Mazama (current site of Crater Lake) blew its top. That seems pretty ancient to me.
Phil is the man ! Get that guy a pint !
I'm pretty sure Phil is one of the likes on this comment.
Get Phil a keg!
This is unbelievably wholesome. Even the name of the village is cute.
10:12 this response from Phil is beautiful
Wonderful! I do miss Mick
23:14 - The face on that little dog is so funny...really made me laugh!
Me too! That dog's inquisitive head turn is one of the funniest of unintended moments. I too love Time Team!
I loved that this show was done during the hoof and foot pandemic in the early 2000s and TT found a way to continue on. Thank you TT Classics!
Phil and John crack me up 😂
The team had gotten settled in by series 12 and their personalities were being allowed to shine. I was watching a couple of episodes from series 6 recently and everyone just seemed a little more camera conscious (apart from Tony of course). So whilst there is a bit of banter it's nothing compared to these later shows. The whole Phil - John - Stewart dynamic is hilarious at times.
I've dug several test pits in my garden and have never found
anything Roman, Norman or medieval... But I do live in Alberta, Canada. 😉
I was just thinking that in Saskatchewan.
You just have to dig deeper. You may find some pottery from the Han dynasty.
you may have just look at first nations artifacts for those time periods ... oh yeah you cant they built with wood and hides and earth ... so now nothing survives of their life ... since white men came and forced them into the church of paul and removed their ancestral heritage from them and the land ...heck you might be able to find the original land deed ... nah wont happen that was stolen land as well ...
That's odd, I dug a few test pits in your garden and found Roman pottery right off the bat.
Digging in Minnesota I uncovered a 'hot dish', tray circa last year! LoL
Love Phil and those short shorts!
Good legs to
Oh! Victor's drawing of the couple burying their baby is so moving.
I love watching the TT work - so interesting!
Such a good episode.
The presentation at the end is magnificent.
Digging down into the walls of the church, a baby's skeleton. It brought tears to my eyes: that people would take the time to inter a tiny baby.
We are watching from all the way down under from Mount Gambier in the State Of South Australian our 16th times Great Grandmother was Anne Plantagenet Of York.
🥇🇦🇺🦘⚜️👑⚜️🏴🇬🇧
I've become addicted to time team. They're all so knowledgeable, dedicated, hardworking and witty. My favorites are Phil, Stuart, Matt and John.
I'm born and raised in the US, but my an creators hall from Kilkenney Fife, Scotland and Ireland/England. Buck, Megill, Carney & Billington.
Autocorrect is awful and there's no option to correct it
It takes a village to raise the past.
3:10, now there is a definite Phil disciple. He's even got the box. Nice. Peace.
Excellent show
Do you have Sir Tony's full presentation recorded? I would certainly enjoy seeing the presentation that the locals saw!
This is so wholesome
What an amazing job !
An absolute gorgeous place to live
I love watching you all and have learned so very much...
might I add Phil’s legs look pretty buff.😉
Lol-my thoughts exactly. They're really showcased in those Daisy Dukes during Mick's intro. I don't fancy gingers (no offense to anyone) and Phil isn't exactly handsome (not to mention the fact that he's older than my mother), but he's sexy as heck, charismatic, earthy and piratey. I'd let him dig in my garden.😉🏴☠️
@@annika_panickaPhil at that age was ruggedly handsome and the red hair only enhanced his looks. He has the best legs I've ever seen on a man. He is also a very talented Blues guitarist. Phil is one of a kind and absolutely fascinating.
@@DeborahParham-ve1vp I'd love to hear him perform the blues! Is it on UA-cam?
I love this show so much and it really helps me sort out the various time periods of British history. But I must admit that this episode had me swooning over the gorgeous and lush British countryside. How do you manage to have zero multi-story buildings and zero strip malls by the road. That all such things got built in North America is such a shame. It means towns and cities are enclosed by the ugliest buildings imaginable that you have to get through just to get to green space. I love living in Canada but I am very sorry that we never had sufficient zoning to keep our communities planned and livable.
Tony's goatee period was the darkest era
You know it. I was angry and embarrassed for him at the same time. Then again, I like people who appear as they want, one life and such. Tricky can of worms that one. 🌻
It was for a part he played in a children's program. He is an actor and changes his hair to fit the different characters he plays.
23:08 Curious cute dog turning its head. ^_^
Thankyou for sharing.
I love Phil "I think I got a pair ah legs".
😂🤣🤣🤣😂
I would move here just for the name of the town and to be able to tell people where I live.
I love this episode!
The kid dancing at 1:46 is great
Well spotted!! 🤣
The running is so daft but I love the program.
You should visit. The Vale of York is a wide and hugely fertile valley that holds many, many historical sites, having been settled for thousands of years. You will not be disappointed. 😊
Time team is going well
Day out of school to dig up lawns?! Every boy in town volunteering
Very Cool...
What fun! Sadly no Saxon's under my yard.
Great opportunity in town to finally bury the the body in the freezer.
So many fresh holes.
♥️😁🇬🇧stunning episode. X
I like this approach with the locals having the opportunity to dig. I would love to be there but I wouldn't be wearing shorty shorts ala Phil.
Phil's summer shorts are iconic. As is his hat.
@@anonthehousemouse .... and the beer bellies on all those guys
@@Odo55 What better place to discuss your findings and theories than a british pub?
The doggo at 23:08 lol
Thank you.
Interesting caterpillar having a snooze on Tony's chin.
Yorkshire was a part of Danelaw. Despite that, the village retained its pre-Viking name of Saxon origin.
If one is on the outskirts of Nether Poppleton, does one refer to them as the Nether Regions?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sh... Phil freaking cracks me up 🤣🤣🤣🤣. You don’t know what work is. All you do is walk about with a supermarket trolly to John. Classic 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha 🤣
The distance the geophys team have to hike on every site (always at a fast regular pace to keep the results accurate) really is mind-boggling... always out in the weather and often through rough ground, nettles, rough half-cleared crops etc. They get a lot of chaff from the diggers 😅 but they must be equally exhausted by the end of the project! 😵 Love the way the ground mapping finds the way for further investigation, & so impressed by how John & team can tell which blobs mean what!!
As a hobby potter, I do laugh to myself at the thought that the rubbish I produce will someday be picked up by these guys, and they'll roll a fragment sample in their hands and say... 'Yep, clearly 2021, 22"
The "Nether Poppleton" sounds like one of the nicer areas of Hell.
Please, can you turn back the subtitles? As a part deaf french woman, I beg of you, help me understand what everyone is saying....
In my experience, subtitles are automatic now for new uploads, but they do take time to process. Usually they're available within 24 hours of the video upload. Hope that's helpful information!
@@michellecampbell5835 I thought so, too, but the CC is not available on every older videos of Time Team either. It's not a question of time passing, CC have been ramdomly disabled on the last videos and it's pretty frustrating.
@ It is massively frustrating, I'm partially deaf myself, and depend on the subtitles. I've tried turning the volume up, which is unpleasant for the people around. I've tried headphones, doesn't work either. So I'm hoping for the subtitles to be made available too!
@@margjeweijdt1510 I totally agree. My wife is partially deaf from birth and now we cannot watch these episodes together anymore on UA-cam/TV. Please reinstate the automatic translation.
Maybe go to their website, there's a "Contact Us" section at the bottom (?)
I was waiting for this one
I absolutely adore Carenzas Golden retriever energy.
ouch, Phil ~ mean comment to John ~ we all have our skill-sets
3:09 Phil Harding fan!
@1:17 Phil is my spirit animal
Lol this cracked me up
Thanks again/
Tony forgot to finish shaving lol.
Had a grandmother that was a byram,... or a byron or buron. A norman invader from 1066. Wish they had done hurston castle. 😶
Was that Raksha in the crowd of villagers?
15:01 thought Tony was gonna have a pop
At the church I think you should have dug out from the larger arch in the wall.
40min in they finally got their Sax-on... 😉🤣
Okay the comedian comes out in me when they say things like "Is that one Norm"? 5:50 "No, that is Sam..."
Can anyone tell me anything about the music at 40:34?
There's something that has always puzzled me about "Time Team": Why is there never ever more than 3 days to explore? Several times, I have felt that further exploration might have been beneficial.
That's the period they set for themselves at the beginning of the programme. I think some of their digs were expanded later by other archeologists.
Some digs go for decades!!!
That is all the funding they could get out of Channel 4, the original funding source, in particular the insurance which is purchased in three day blocks. The cost of that went up in 2007 with the fatality arising out of the jousting reenactment.
They also have jobs. Whether still archeology on a bigger scale or professor’s at university’s. So the 3 days are probably over a weekend so they can fit it in with their day jobs. Tony was the only TV personality, everyone else are actually professionals in their fields.
A Tudor mansion discovered because Ian decided to start poking about where he saw some bricks. Not a bad result.
My ancestors 🎉
I miss Mick
Tony's voice ❤❤❤❤
It would be grand if there a show like this in Israeli.
Shoutout to phil's jorts
Oh Phil....
Tony - the beatnik years
Around here we're excited if we find a Pepsi bottle from the 1970's.
I'm trying to picture why people in the past seem to have left layers and layers of broken pottery EVERYWHERE.
Did anybody let Tony know there was a fuzzy caterpillar on his chin.
First aired January 9, 2005.
When Mick Aston spoke, everyone stopped to listen to his wisdom.
23:09 dog in the corner looking confused
