Every time Phil says “innit” I just smile like a goon! Lol 😂
Tony was really in his element here. I absolutely adore him. He brought the whole programme to life with his dashing around bringing everybody together and asking intelligent questions. I do miss this exceptional team.

The new hosts have their own presenting style, and will come into their own in time. Tony was a brilliant combination of enthusiastic host and everyman asking good questions that allowed the experts their moments to shine. He wasn't an expert presenting a documentary, he was just passionate about what they were doing and glad to have experts fill in the details for him, and us.
Phil was pretty dishy back in the day! 🔥 It's so fun to see how young they were and the how rudimentary the technology was. How amazing that they worked together, respected each other, and were able to produce so many episodes of this show for us to enjoy.

Phil!?! You're easily pleased.
I'm an American, and a retired evolutionary biologist, and I worked for several years on an archaeology survey team as their osteology consultant and field crewmember. I've been watching TT episodes for abut 3 years now on KZread, and I love them. and once in a while, I stumble on an older one, and and the original cast is there. It's like running into a group of old friends. Watching TT makes me really miss my archaeology days, even though the world was grueling.

@@TVeldhorst It was physically extremely difficult and taxing, and the work days were long. And I was in very good or even excellent physical condition.
I like seeing them all young again.
I am always impressed with Victors art work
I’ve been watching Time Team for as long as I can remember- sometime in the 90s I think. I discovered British crop circles at some point then too and it certainly provided me with intelligent fascinating investigations I could never do myself. Now at 76 I still watch every Time Team I can, no matter how many times I’ve seen it. ❤ Thanks Mick, Phil, John and a cast of thousands for brilliant work that is timeless.

That's great! I'm so very lucky to have found this show recently, so even though I've binged every episode that's crossed my path, they're still _new-ish._ I even still find one I haven't seen every now and then. It's fascinating how the show's evolved over the years!
I love watching Phil do flint napping. It's always amazing to see this dude who just rediscovered the methods for making functional stone tools just shooting the shit while strategically banging two rocks together to make something cool.

Even some of the ancient stone tools they find aren't as quality as what he can do. And they did it, presumably almost every day, for every year they had the motor skills to do so during their whole lives. I'm always impressed... I wanna see him try some obsidian!.

Yes indeed. I love the humour and jibing. You can only have that with a team who know each other. Alice Roberts almost certainly has a sense of humour but it humour cant be used when the presenter is visiting dig after dig for a day or two, and interviewing an exhausted dig leader for whom enthusiasm has long worn off after a month or two. the Time Team knew each other and benefiitted from "early days" excitement. Their work revealed what would repay digs lasting months

I'm in Southern Ontario on the escarpment. I would love to find something like that here.. Very difficult in this area. But not unheard of
Mammoths 🦣 are often found while doing construction in Oregon USA too. The current climate here is very similar to that in London as well.
This brings back memories, not the show but the tech. Lol I remember when that stuff came out and was like, revolutionary compared to the computers etc that we were all using
I love Phil Harding, last saw him on a dig at Waterloo where he has matured nicely. My one piece of confusion is how he keeps his hair from constantly getting in his face! Same with the long haired Time Team ladies. I have hair that length and it requires severe clips and braiding for gardening. Digging for archeology is just gardening for bones and rocks?

Well this is an oldie! Phil is looking quite fit, if I do say so. Is that the same hat he always wears but just back when it was new with the spiffy feather?!?! The technology of geo-phys really did revolutionize the field and I love how excited and intelligent and quirky the whole team is...and it is funny that pre-drone era how they had to get an overview of the site.

I once found a flint arrowhead on Bex Hill. I was only a child, and I was very disappointed that one side was broken. At the time, it challenged my need to find a perfect one. It was discarded because it had failed in the maker's hand.
OMG ... Phil's hat looks almost new ! I didn't know Baldrac was a baseball fan !
Ohh Sue!!
The way i KNOW this must be season 1 or close when they're saying "let's not get distracted by a mammoth, we need to look for seeds"... no! I want to see the mammoth!!
Anybody know what kind of camera they we're using?!? The auto focus is fantastic, the quality is great for the time swing as this surly isn't shot on film
LOOK AT HOW NEW PHIL'S HAT IS 😊😊😊😊
Any chance of including in the description the Season and Episode :) think this is S3 E2
The documentary was extraordinary, until too much crowd gathered on my watch.
In thousands of years, there’s going to be a lot of confused archaeologists finding the places phil has been with his flints.
I think I saw a Commodore 64 in the tent.
is it one single river or a location of a past junction of two or more water courses.
The hair! 😏
