I love the fact that the school teachers took the opportunity to bring their classes out to see the trenches first-hand. Its not every day you can stand on the edge of a real archeological trench and probably ask questions of the people ding the digging. Well done!

Harry-Potter-esque music adds a nice touch! Quite awesome to see a Tudor era palace uncovered. We love Jackie, and Neil, and Frances, and all the other rotating site directors, but none are a Mick Aston. So sad T.T. ended without you at the helm. R.I.P., Mick!

Remember when GoPro shots were AMAZING...they used the shit outta them on this episode; love it!

I was always taught that Hampton Court Palace originally belonged to Wolsey and that he had created it in an extremely wealthy style. When Henry found out, Wolsey attempted to placate the king by gifting him with Hampton Court (it didn't work.) Wolsey had made some bad enemies because he was a commoner who dared to climb up among his betters. He was unable to get Henry's divorce from Catherine of Aragon annulled by the Pope. He also didn't approve of Henry's relationship with Anne Boleyn. He had fled to his country estate; the one being excavated in this video. Henry ordered him to return to London, but Wolsey died on the journey.

+Leopararouen You keep saying that but every time I see her handling documents without gloves it's been copies of the documents, not the actual ancient documents, like this episode, the document looked ancient on the front, but if you pay attention to the underside where it is still rolled up (where Dr. Lipscombs hand is resting on it at the edge of the table) it is modern poster paper, not ancient paper/vellum, plus you cannot roll up a document with a wax seal on it like that without the wax seal cracking and falling apart, so it is a copy of the original, not the original itself, and with so many experts on hand at least one of them would have said something to her if it was actual ancient documents she was handling. Also, why do you never say anything about the other TT members doing the same thing, like an earlier episode where she and Tony were looking at a guys family history, you commented on how she handled the document without gloves but didn't say a thing about the fact that Tony was right there handling the same document without gloves. Me thinks there may be a bit of jealousy on your part here. Maybe jealous that she gets to hang out with your crush Dr. Harding and you don't?

I copied this from Wikipedia "Hampton Court Palace is a royal palace in the borough of Richmond upon Thames, 11.7 miles (18.8 kilometres) south west and upstream of central London on the River Thames. Building of the palace began in 1515 for Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, a favourite of King Henry VIII. In 1529, as Wolsey fell from favour, the cardinal gave the palace to the King to check his disgrace. "

I wonder how many times Wolsey had to pass the collection plate before he could afford that place. I wonder how many peasants who put money in the collection plates were allowed within a hundred yards of the place.

@garyrobinson2409

8 жыл бұрын

Amazingly this is commonplace. Palaces were torn down for many reasons, but they disappear because the building materials are carted away and used in other buildings, the stone and brick would have a lot of value and so selling it was sensible. I once owned a 1620 house in East Sussex that sat on foundations of an older medieval building and those foundations contained stone and tile from Roman building located about a mile away. Our village church had lots of Roman stonework in it, so this cycle has been going on for a long time. Another place similar to this called "Nonsuch Palace" in Surrey also all but disappeared too and was demolished allegedly to pay off gambling debts ! I remember this place clearly because, as a young boy, I stupidly fell into the moat (which is empty) and broke my foot.

It is funny to see how pretzel-like the Time Team rhetoric has to be made to deal with a genuine, unapologetic, in-your-face Renaissance Man, Thomas Cardinal Wolsey. Preserving England from yet another protracted and hyper-expensive war with France, until resources were more favourable, a friend to some of the great humanists of the day, staggeringly rich - and using it to mark his presence also England's restored presence on the European stage. A man from lowly or modest background made good - in material terms, willing and more than able to tack with the prevailing political wind - when necessary, and - not unlike his namesake Thomas of Canterbury - he was a better friend to the king than to God, and paid the price for failure to please his temporal lord; unfortunately for him, in the eyes of posterity, he did not die the death of a martyr but that a traitor (whether deservedly so or not).
