Micks gone? When did that happen!?

@@jamesfraser4173 i think it was about 4 years ago or so. 😔

@alanrtment porter I can see that. I watch all of the early episodes from season 1 to 10 and the camaraderie is amazing & hilarious. He absolutely adored what he did & loved everyone as family. I still follow Tony as he does the history docs but it isn't the same without the whole team. 💕

@@Pauldjreadman Thank you !!

Baldrick XD

In that get up Matt does look something like a taller Baldrick, doesn't he?

Empathize, not emphasize.

Stewart.

You mean sweaty body salt....not the fancy Himalayan salt i assume :p

It's the beer from the night before

He said he could grow carrots in it, there is a good percentage of dirt.

WHAT :)

So is my black baseball hat of 20yrs. When it rains the hat stays dry but my eyes rot out from salt water streaming down.

27:00 - points to her left side and says she needs to determine the depth of the wall ... goes back to digging on her right side.

think she's just pointing to her trench in general, in a way that the person she's talking to can actually see her gesture. And then continues on where she left off. It really doesn't come down to a matter of inches to the left or right when digging for a wall, does it? grasping at straws mate.

+E! Carroll She's a classic English rose.

@@mrvarus8957 why dont you show us yóur face, mate? And we'll tell you what we think of thát.

I'm out of breath just reading that sentence. If Roman ruins were used to repair or build anything in the immediate area, wouldn't they be identifiable, at least as being dressed stones? That roadside wall at the beginning clearly had a section that was Roman, and there were no carvings in it - just some extremely different rock facings from the rest of the wall.

It strikes me that Tony, Phil,and some others formed the Garden Force team!

for someone who's almost 20 years older than me, and not a classical beauty, she's got some peculiar attraction. She's quite sexy in her own way.

Me too she is lovely 🤗

*Helen is such an adorable personality.* She adds light energy to all episodes she's in. My favorite female Team Member. ...and I like Bridget, Rakshar, and that little lady that's a part time sort of Manager, I love her voice/speech. I call her the "Little General"! The colors of personalities are the flavors that further, added to their skills, making this show such a likeable success!

***** Why do you assume she doesn't?

***** Why do you assume I was offended?

Celto Loco Books will never be rated second next to a program or a movie. Are you serious? LOL, I don't know what level of education you have, but speaking for myself, I didn't get where I am today from watching movies. Kids come and stay at my house and whilst I do have a broad variety of dvd's to choose from, I invariably find them cloistered in my library pouring through books. Society needs to be academically and intellectually nurtured, not dummied down by movies.

Celto Loco a frantic three day dig hardly trumps books and a solid education. The show is an entertaining diversion but I wouldn't invest my future in it. lol

Celto Loco I don't know what kind of children you know, but the children in my life rarely watch movies as they are too busy. They are athletic and academically prone, love museums, science, history, excel at sports, travel (with me as well as their parents), love to read and wouldn't think about being so irresponsible as to "doodle in books". Two year olds doodle in books, anyone older than that should have been taught better by their parents. Have a nice day.

They tried it. There was a Time Team USA. it was awful..

The US is too regulated. We can only dig 5x5 trenches in limited number. We don’t like education and expanded minds.

You can't do it here because our government refuses to really support public television. The closest thing we have to this is Ken Burns Specials, carried almost exclusively on PBS.

@@martynnotman3467 Not awful, just nowhere near as good as its parent. *USA* TV, even PBS as that was, usually seems to deliver pre-digested sensationalist pap these days. *TTA* _tried_ to do it right but guess what - they weren't allowed to. Sadly even *UK* TV seems headed that way now which is why I _never_ watch the broadcast stuff.

@@philaypeephilippotter6532 BBC4 has loads of fabulous stuff. Its basically all I watch now

Oh yes, now and always!!!!

Burial mounds date back 6000 years in North America.

Near here is the Falls of the Ohio 375 million year old exposed Devonian Age fossil beds. Supposed to be the largest visible in the world. Great interpretive center overlooking the accessible fossils. You can also cast a line if you are into fishing. www.fallsoftheohio.org.

TheCarin12 We do have some really fascinating history and archaeology in the US. The thing I'm super jealous of the UK about, though, is that their archaeology is _everywhere_ while ours is pretty well spread out. Nearly anybody can just go out into their back yard in the British Isles and dig up some incredible history. And just about nobody in the US can do that! And +KYIRISH1, you are damn right about school!! I wish we could have had presenters Attenborough or shows like Time Team in school, rather than some boringly written book that (I personally feel) we can't really even trust! I definitely think I would have gotten interested in history much earlier than I did if we had such quality shows over here! BUT!! We have DINOSAURS on our continent! So HA! ;)

+KYIRISH1 Many thanks for the tip - now added to my "possible stops" list for the next UK trip. I agree with my US neighbour about how our friends in the UK and Europe are standing on ancient history pretty much anywhere you go. Roman here...Saxon there..."finds" in practically every Farmer's field. Amazing stuff. Thanks to Time Team for letting us in on the fun...without having to get muddy 👍🙂🏛⛏🏺🇬🇧

+Canuckmom1958 Oooopps..just realized I misread your post - so will switch that to my "possible stops" on a USA Road Trip. 😊

I recognized his voice and started to wonder if it really was him.

He has a cunning plan......

Sir Baldrik now, he's been knightedby the Queen

I keep wondering... wheres his sausage?

I bet various authorities can't say no to him when he asks to dig somewhere.

Aaaaaaw yeah. ;D Yep, he's a cutie.

in one episode, he gets naked. no joke. keep bingeing, I've put the time code on it. it's one where they make him move tons of stone around and drink nearly as much beer.

imagine if all psysical remains had a personal grave. The planet would be one graveyard. To dust you shall return...the soul is safe ;-)

After reading dimensions in old property deeds measured in chains and links for 3 decades, it is (to parrot Phil) absolutely wonderful to actually SEE a chain with the links being used. Makes so much more sense now. Thanks Time Team for doing so and Reijer Zaaijer for posting!

I never quite understood; Rod, Pole or Perch!

For a somewhat detailed and confusing attempt at explanation see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perch_(unit) Turns out to not have anything to do with fishing (as in fishing rod or pole and catching perch - go figure!)

Even better see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_(unit) It is equally confusing but contains all 3 terms, stating that all 3 are equal, measuring 16.5 feet (as is the lug)

one inch equals 1600 feet segmented quadrant bearing gradient curvilinear . thank the gods for chakra

WeeeWriter It’s kind of his trademark.

@@RoyalFizzbin What a sweet fellow he was.

+Fedra Haldane He DID! In season 17!

Just the beverage after a hard day's work.

It is. Think of the 1000 years it has been used as a graveyard. Roughly every 60 years the the equivalent of the number of inhabitants is buried there ...

+Emily Handler A search of the county records shows about 3,100 people interred in an average year. Though this parish is just a small part of that it still adds up rather quickly.

In Europe you don't own a grave space, you rent it. People in the US where we have more land and not so many centuries of people buried don't really understand the difference.

Sure. Stacked up like pancakes.

Stewart.

No.

*Artiss* wasn't disbelieved, they needed to check it all out to correct the maps.

+get in Pretty much, their job is to evaluate and describe the chronology. They aren't going to excavate the entire thing. This site would possibly take years to excavate. Buried buildings are safe. In the past, excavation happy groups wrecked a great deal of sites. So now its treated as, preserve it for the future after figuring out WHAT you have. Then map it and protect it. Which is the most important part, protecting it from further damage so in the future, when we are EVEN better at it, we can learn so much more, because the whole site wasn't torn down to understand it.

That is good to hear and I truly hope that is what happens. Thanks Rory

Mostly erosion. Also buildings are knocked down into their cellars then covered over.

You need to learn physics not archeology.

Where would you expect them to be? Floating in the sky?

jan-erik Tørres I think Frances Pryer is the best site director on Time Team This Ben on some episodes just makes it up as he goes along! 👍🏻

It's all fascinating

12:35 - this guy with the light blue shirt and glasses uses the expression 'look' just like Mick Aston does. I assume it's a local expression from wherever they hail from, much the same as the Irish will say 'yeh'.

Lots of walls disappear.

*MrAlumni* 1. *Artiss* is dead. 2. They dug to find what he found and drew. They found it.

Raksha.

they didn't have permission to dig among the graves on Day 1. plus, it's more interesting to dig in uncharted areas, compared to what has already been excavated.

Most of the burials they have previously excavated have been Medieval or earlier. Those in this episode are likely much more recent and are buried in currently consecrated ground which adds an extra layer of red tape, permissions etc. The names of the people buried in the churchyard are known and some of their descendants may still be living locally. I am currently working on the excavation of a disused cemetery. In some cases we have been able to put names to individual skeletons and we know some basic details of these peoples' lives. It makes it much different, more personal and poignant I suppose, to digging a prehistoric, Roman or Medieval burial. That said, excavating human remains is always a privilege and is done with due dignity and respect.

I've just started watching Time Team, there does appear to be quite a few of those camera angles...

lumps and bumps

To keep the show interesting, it a entertainment show...not a science documentary.

He's also a fantastically good sport, which I suspect is the reason he always gets roped into those things.

Hey ....... 😒

Not really, there are many places that have never been discovered, they are also finding dinosaur bones which is older than roman bones...so the experts say.

Americans commenting here are sure to mention pre-historic finds that dot our land, and that’s all well and good, but to me, that stuff doesn’t match up to the wealth of Roman to medieval stuff you have in England. No contest.

You seen it with modern eyes & values. We should not judge as we were not there ! Fair enough, we would not do that today (We hope)

Gosh, your grasp of history is amazing. And of human nature.

@@lizziedripping71 I feel it with Empathy, imagining the hardship and losses, of loved ones and their homes, land, and traditions. I know it from the perspective of having had to be born in a foreign land, with both a more recent lineage if G-Grandparents from County Kerry and a lineage that dates to before the American Revolution which creates the DAR status, "Daughters of the American Revolution. It isn't a subject that one is best served by overly focusing in nor separating feelings as unimportant due to a time distance, it is real in its effects having continued to be largely ignored and so lightly dusted over, the continued attitudes, on both sides, that have yet to gain a true resolution. Resolution requires dealing with the facts and in this case those that are real feelings, and real families, separated from their land and family. Land that can still be tracked and traced through Pubilic Records. Imagine being removed from your home and then having to live in a 2 room structure on your land, and having to pay the individual living in your house for this privilege, while working for them and having such a low amount of pay that it doesn't cover the necessities of food, clothing, and housing, while being treated as unworthy of life itself. That constitutes a most Narcissistic level of ongoing emotional abuse and often it was accompanied by Physical, Sexual, Child, and Spiritual, *Abuse.* If one is familiar with and understands Quantum Physics Science, and understands we have Thoughts and Feelings that are either through our Lower Mind aka Ego Mind or our Higher Mind. From the perspective of the Higher Mind, one can discern, it is clear these energies are still present and until their firm changes, there exists disharmony. The whole of the subject was a Lower Mind associated actions, given that's where all the negatives reside: fear, judgemental, prejudices, jealousy, envy, abuse, etc. The Higher Mind comprising the positives: Love, Joy, Laughter, Self Worth, Harmony, and where Wisdom resides. Healing happens when the negative energies are released and focus is on the positives, the desires. Truths and sincere actions towards resolutions are key. In the 21st Century, there's a potential and probabilities for this to be explained. I believe it is a true reality in the now and we (the Irish) will have a freeing from those old energies.

@@judeirwin2222 ❤

Elf and safety? Where do you live, the north pole?

That would probably require digging a larger area to make sure you got all the bones belonging each individual, which would likely uncover more bones in so doing. Instead they respectfully simply allowed the bones to remain as they were, resting as they had for at least a century in the same graveyard they were buried in long before they were later moved to their present resting place. We can't even be sure to what extent those people's bones aren't to be found elsewhere as well. Besides all this assumes that it is possible to separate one body from the other, and not have to end up burying them all together again. Moreover, in what way were the bones left "literally in a ditch"? A hole was dug to put them in within the graveyard when digging another hole for a grave. You might as well call any hole dug for a grave a ditch. Or do you really think that people have always been burying their dead in coffins, pots or stone-lined graves? All through the Middle Ages and later most people went into the ground with just a linen shroud.

@@a.westenholz4032 Thank you for this thoughtful reply to my comment above. I take your points and see the sense of them. Best to you, Diana

@@dianapotter8970 Your'e welcome. I only wish more people were like you- and not feel that they absolutely had to defend to the death anything they may have stated. We are all in the wrong at some point or another. I know I personally need to work on that myself. :)

@@a.westenholz4032 Thank you, A! Best, D.

Don't forget we only see a Very small snippet of the 3 day digs.

That irritates the heck out of me too. I'm surprised he doesn't call it "Archie" instead of Archaeology.

@@HO-bndk It's just verbal shorthand. Try not to let it bother you.

Which program did you watch?

Which people are you referring to? The people that just threw the bodies in one atop of another on top of a floor or TT taking their time respecting the bones of the dead?

turn you sound down . . .

Wotdermatter you're a loony. They never asked him for one. And B, the show is scripted.

@@TheRedleg69 the show wasn't scripted. Clearly, Tony's pieces to camera are but they're written 10 minutes before doing them as it is filmed over 3 days and they don't know what they will find.

Just because they are digging on the grounds of a Church, that Doesn't mean that the Praetorium word in the byble has the same biblical meaning. They said a Praetorium is a BUILDING which Many Praetoriums are scattered around & even in Rome. Cherry 🍒 picking gone awry once again.

@@johnbull1986 Sorry to burst your bubble but, yes, it is scripted. There are some spontaneous exchanges caught as well because they had cameras rolling all the time, but most is scripted.

So he's "ignorant" but he knows how to read ancient Greek? K. Also the show is scripted, so he gave he information when he was asked to give it.

+Kathleen Fraser Fuck the dead.

No that is not the way to go Have respect for the Dead Some day you will be there too.

I'd be perfectly happy for someone to "look" at my bones in several hundred years from now in the pursuit of knowledge. I have no idea what you're fussing about. Bones are bones. Even the vicar was fine with it, and what a brilliant vicar, educated, curious and open-minded, exactly how a rural vicar should be. He values the two thousand years of human history that rest beneath his feet.

Respect all peoples all cultures and their religions and you do not have the spiritual good health mental good health to make a statement these bones of the deceased are barbarians - they are Celts revered the land and revered the power of life and were are more civilized then you will ever become. It is you who is the barbarian for your arrogance and pursuit on negative quantum physics . These people possessed a highly developed culture and Just who the hell do you think you are to determine who is a barbarian and who is not. Never never never never disturb the internment rest of the dead and their burial rituals or someone in the future may determine you are the barbarian an dig you up. YOu know nothing about GOD at all.

I am sure they try their hardest to dig them up respectably. To me disrespect would be yanking the bones out without care and throwing it in a pile. Plus, they did NOT start digging (or even thought about digging) until they knew they had permission. I think these people are more respectful than you give them credit for. And if the grave digger already disturbed graves, the damage is done. Time Team will hardly be ruining anything. And I know (having watched tons of their videos) they are as careful and thoughtful as possible. I have no clue where you got the word "barbarian" from. They didn't use it.

Why did you post the same comment twice ?????????????????????????????
