We saw the backhoe operator taking off just an inch of soil at a time. If you think that's easy you'd be wrong. It takes years of practice and a good measure of natural talent to accomplish.

If you search "Ian Barclay Time Team" you'll surely find some of the outtakes of tricks he did with excavators. Truly sad to have lost him. Rest in Peace Ian.

Anybody ever wonder if after these guys do their bit on the show the landowners are intrigued enough to have (or allow) further archeological work to be done? I'd be so excited if they found stuff like that in my yard that I'd probably invite interested anthropologists or archeologists to have at it until the site was exhausted. For that matter, if no one was willing or able to dig it, I'd probably be out there with a shovel, a hand trowel, a sieve, and a bunch of brushes, and a camera, string grid and site map to document it, digging it up myself out of sheer, unbridled curiosity.

We don’t see them bury the sites again though so perhaps Time Team move to another site while off camera, excavation continues. I don’t know. I’m a Russian living in the US. I know nothing about British archaeology. I know in Arizona, basically all works stop if archaeology examples are suspected. I live in Chicago though. I just saw that about Arizona in a museum there. Obviously the UK will have much better archaeology sites.

Sad to see Stewart up in the helicopter without Mick alongside him.

This was an exceptional story from an exceptional series. Thanks for posting

I don't like the 3 day time limit . They should at least give themselves a week. Imagine how much more they could have found with two or three more days worth of digging.

@gasfiltered

4 жыл бұрын

Time Team was filmed over weekends and all of the main people had real jobs during the week. This was the main reason for only doing 3 days. The crew (70-100) people had to be housed and fed. They were often the same size as the villages they invaded and would quickly wear out their welcome. This is also a standard length for an exploratory dig; many of the sites they dug were further excavated when warranted. There's a really good Q&A with the crew posted somewhere that explains all the details.

@@ariosetiawan173 Well, American and British English only split after Shakespeare, Jamestown was settled in like 1607. So we really speak the same language. VERY few differences in spelling or words for different things. Now, if you want to talk about language drift, compare the Icelandic language to Danish, Norwegian or Swedish. That has had 1000 or more years to evolve from other Scandinavian languages. American English has only had 400 years. Practically it is the same language, and spelling and structure. If you know one, you know the other. Same with Australian, New Zealand, South African and Canadian. Although Canadian is closer to American English. Only difference is our accents between all former British colonies. I would say at times, Indian or Jamaican English is harder to understand, even for other Native English speakers. So I can only imagine how difficult it can be for speakers who it is their 2nd language.

Beautiful team, beautiful work & fun in the same time, LOVE YOU !

I gotta say, and not trying to be mean but Neil just isn't meant for running and coordinating a site and a crew. Some people aren't built that way, they just have to maybe be on his own or have someone else delegating, etc.. Nice enough guy it seems but I personally think that once Mick left (rest in peace Mick), Phil should've been the site boss. Phil's a smart MF'er- he always finds what he's looking for provided it hasn't been destroyed like that mosaic on this one.

That's amazing. I love your channel. Thank you for the great videos 😃👍

Great show!!! The family and I LOVE IT!!

Yay! Audio!! Thanks.

👍🏼😁 great! Thx for the reupload

i've watched dozens of these episodes and it was only after a previous episode mentioned 'Dr. Jenny Butterworth' when i had just watched another episode where she was only a research student that I realized Phil didn't actually hold a doctorate during this show's run. I just thought that was crazy because Phil was essentially tied for 2nd with Carenza (who is a doctor) under Mick in the team 'structure'. Phil has always been supervisor of his own trench, something they usually have the 'doctors' do. All under Mick.

Ah! You found the soundtrack! Brilliant!

Jeez, Phil was grumpy!

Maybe it was just a Roman farmhouse with a few fancy features. Like maybe there were not a bunch of grand mosaics; maybe there was just one in the main room or courtyard. Maybe it did have a heating system for a few rooms. England is cold. And also it probably was rebuilt at some point, like we do today. Many of our farms today are hundreds of years old but the houses are replaced from time to time. I think they found more than they realized.

The geeophyz and those track shovel operators are magic when you only have three days.

They need a month on this site.

Now let's figure out what family lived there. For now its drop tools and off to the pub, I love it. They hit a wall that's all they had to do.

The sad part about this is someone has already posted every episode. I really want to have a drink with Phil.
