When the world gets me down I return over and over again to Time Team there is something soothing and genuine here that wraps me in a giant hug. I wish I could live in Time Team reality for ever. Been watching from across the pond since the very beginning before the Y tube. Can someone please invent that dam time machine and get me out of the hell that was once called Canada.

The look on Phil's face when Mick points out those stones in the road . That's the time team gold I'm looking for ... Classic ; well , damn 🤣 *I love Tony and Phil's interactions . Like long lost brothers 🤣 *So are they in Wales . That looks a lot like the Appalachian region of Tennessee and Georgia . Well if I ever move to the UK I know where I'll feel comfortable . Ironically enough that's what the settlers from there thought when they first got here . They even got along with the Cherokee very well until President Jackson came along and somebody told him there was silver in these hills . So began the trail of tears. Sorry to end on a sad note.

Tony, while still doing acting, had finished off a season of his TV show, so he and his wife decided to go on a dig in Greece, advertised by the local university. The course/dig was led by Mick Aston, who got along well with Tony. When Mick and Tim Taylor decided to make Time Team, Mick told Tim that he wanted both Phil Harding and Tony Robinson as part of the show

“ it’s the right thing to do”. Sums up Phil and Mick and their dedication to archaeology. Love this show so much.

"What is it, wiggly?" I'm laughing so hard i can't drink my tea

Mick likes Stewart's hypothesis that the site is workbase for lime collecting... I like that idea too, Stewart never fails to impress me and he's outdone himself this time. Stewart's landscape reading and John with his geophys are my favourite aspects. Of course it's great seeing Phil et al in holes and seeing what's in the holes is exciting enough, but what John and Stewart do is so good.

Phil was priceless in this episode.

... and in true stride Stewart still holds out hope to solve the problem and does. At least Mick was satisfied. Ffrith was an early Roman lime mining town. Low on the totem so no major buildings or forts, therefore no need for a bath house, as has been said repeatedly by The Team ... a hypercourse floor does not mean its a bath house, just a heated floor.

@SNP-1999

@alison webster Exactly ! If a unit of Roman soldiers were stationed there to supervise the mining, there would definitely have been a bath house there - maybe not a grand one, but a bath house nonetheless, amongst a group of wooden buildings for barracks etc. All those who are criticizing Guy for sticking to this theory are talking through the back of their heads. The small finds point to a bath, the excavation just didn't find one because the team was obviously excavating the wrong area - that is archaeology, a hit or miss science.

@a.westenholz4032

Bath houses were more common than you think. Most smaller towns had at least one for ordinary people to use. Romans not only understood that general health and cleanliness went together, but that public health and bath houses went together as well. So while it may have been very basic and nothing fancy, if the place not only served a local community, but regular traffic passing through there was very likely a bath house on site as well as some sort of hostel or changing post.
