i absolutely adore watching time team videos. found them during the pandemic. i‘m austrian so i had no clue about them beforehand and it‘s such a joy to discover so much great content. also amazing to see the technological advances when you compare older episodes with newer ones. i often wonder about older digs and how much more could have been explored with lidar for example
They make a great mystery of Upton, i guess for the purposes of selling us the program, where there really isn't. It's full history is available in the local library [Pembroke i think. Details on the castle and the Malephants i got from Haverfordwest Library in 1976], its structure, exact build dates, the family, who is in the chapel; there is no mystery. I've always loved Time Team but their disingenuous methodology has me wondering about them some times.
@@tarajperson262 Well the answer may lie with Mick Aston's arguments with the production when he left. Can't fault the archaeologists for liking a paying job. But. they do say the pieces given to them so....
Yay. I found a person after my own heart. Never liked Neil OR Francis Prior. Neil is whiny and came across as knowing nothing and Francis seemed to always sit on the fence and never committed to anything and would change his mind like the wind. I always nicknamed him the ‘paper reed’ as he would bend in every direction during the same programme.

I enjoyed this episode. I could listen to Suzannah Lipscomb all day, she's so knowledgeable in Tudor history
2:37 - This part really got me thinking... 🤯 Love how you make these complex ideas so easy to understand!
BINGO! Another success. Well done. You delivered again. Loved this episode. Thank you. 😊
I would let the Time Team into my house. Whether I let them out again or not is another question.
😂😅😮
You could probably bribe them to stay with some tea and cake! Or beer lol!
LOL! I agree 😅. G Ire
😂😂😂
wow, this is a rare one that I've not seen before!
Time Team should start marketing a soda called "Geo Fizz".
I wish these were 7 days to be done on episodes
Such a beautiful place before and now. The history is always amazing. The bones carbon dated to when?
Pre 1200 I think - nothing exact tho
Fantastic research.
It would seem that the "castle" is actually a fortified manor house.
"part looks medieval and part looks 19th century" seems like something that doesn't have just one architect.
Seems odd there's no Geophys before they dig.
13 mins in and I'm wondering if any geophysics is going to be done...GPR sounds like it could have worked...oh and there is goes, just a little bit
The Victorian sunken gardens... sunk that as well.
They didn’t make much use of Raksha. Disappointing, though I did enjoy this episode.

Yeah, but is it the archeologist fault or the producers?

38:32 is Phils akubra made in Australia? 🤠🦘
Tony's pregnancy is really coming along.
how rude! lol
I confess I was concerned about his blood sugars.... G Ire
I just cannot take the new 'commentator'. Totally ruins the new shows. Go Sir Tony!
Is it possible to replace Neil Holbrook with an AI character? I always want to switch off when he starts his winging.
Yay. I found a person after my own heart. Never liked Neil OR
