- The Team search for a lost Anglo-Saxon monastery on the rain and wind-swept Headland at Hartlepool in Northumberland.
Twelve hundred years ago a thriving community of monks and nuns, presided over by Saint Hilda, were trying to convert the pagans to Christianity. But the monastery disappeared after 200 years and lay forgotten until workmen unearthed human bones and grave markers in 1833.
Now the Team has just three days to find the exact location of the monastery and perhaps the remains of some of St Hilda's followers.
TT: "Hi, we're from Time Team. Can we dig up your garden?"
Owner: "Sure. And take the garage, too!"
Another great thing about Reijer Zaaiger channel is NO COMMERCIALS...plus, he has loads of other archaeological programs.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PHIL!!!!

@@maeve4686 Oh wow I thought I was older but la de la my natal is 7/18/50. Happy birthday old man. Phil me luv.
which other ones?
I love how enthusiastic Phil is about every find, how he loves figuring out the stories and the history, even if it's not part of what he's looking for.
Stuart's powers of deduction are brilliant.
I love it when Stewart goes on his walkabouts!
Stewart is so cool, and so tough. When the rain is pouring down and everyone wears heavy rain gear, he doesn't even have his hood up. 7:50
So British.. they all behave like this with the rain
Always nice to find an episode I haven't seen yet!!
@ 20:22 one great quote from Mick which I shall appropriate for myself "I'm a man of many paths" excellent thinking...RIP Mick.
CompetitiveAudio mick says parts not paths
' a man of many PARTS' the correct and better quote which I shall appropriate...Thanks all..
'A Man of Many Parts' A poem by James Whitcomb Riley. I like Paths more though, seems more appropriate for such well travelled gentlemen.
When Stewart's name first came as identifier I thought his title read Archaeological Survivor. Time to get my eyes checked. As soon as I wipe the laughter tears. lol
Given the weather, I reckon that's a valid misread.
@@kingoftadpoles he's a Surveyor. As one myself, I can assure you, "survivor" is an apt and interchangeable term for the job title.
I had that happen once also. So funny.
😁
Most if not all the TT shows are available on You Tube.
Thanks to Reijer Zaaijer
The ones he does not have Fillask has on his site.
Reijer Zaaijer has all but one or so of the regulars, and in general his regular episodes are slightly better in quality. Fillask has just about every extra, special, live, digs, etc. and all are watchable too.
They both went above and beyond and did education and history a great service. I owe them both soooo much.

@@billie-jobenway8658 Thank you for the link. I look forward to watching all of the specials after I watch all of Reijer's uploads.
Here's a three part series you might find interesting.
Birth of Britain (also uploaded by Reijer)
czcams.com/video/aBWJZBdWug0/video.html
I haven't watched it yet, but it looks like it will be a very good documentary.
Yes I have had many years for my GO TO TT shows thanks to you and your fellow up loaders. The broadcasting community is finally catching up to Our sovereign ingenuity which is both good and not so good.
Thanks very much Reijer Zaaijer for posting these on youtube.
So amazing to find such an intact skeleton of someone who lived there over 1000 years ago. Well done.
and i find it good that it was closed off and hidden from the gawkers view and treated with respect when removed. my respect to all the people who were involved there. would be nice to know though where that lady was reburied...meaning if there is a plaque or something like that in St.Hilda's Church?
I think it would be neat if they took the D.N.A and found a descended. Could you just hear the phone call? "Hell-o we have one of your family members who died 1,000 years ago. No we don't have a name, we thought you might help us with that."
As a nun, I don't think there would be many descendants.
@@deetsy4jesus in those days married women were sent to a nunnery
@@annpartoon5300 convent. Nunnery is Elizabethan slang for a brothel.
@@deetsy4jesus Not direct descendants, but I'm sure she had siblings who had kids.
i love time team! thank you so much for uploading al these episodes :)
Great episode, in a great show! I love Time Team.
"And when he was baptised into the Christian faith by saint Paulinus, in 627, she got dunked along with him" 9:15. You've got to love Robin Bush
My mother is from Hartlepool it was great to see a bit of it again.
thank you for the incredible upload! I loved this episode❤
the gal at 26:30 is so pleasant about the dig. I cant imagine having someone look for a grave in my garden and FINDING one :O
Especially if you put it there. Talk about awkward...
... I went to Hartlepoo once. A town of great convenience. :0)
The number of significant finds in a dig can be directly correlated to the number of "Oh, aaaaahs" from the hirsute gentleman.
Phil Harding, Wessex Archaeological Trust and an expert on flint artefacts
@@morrigan191 you forgot "astute scholar" and "connoisseur of fine ales". Phil Harding is an absolute treasure. He and Mick were the best part of this show.
Interesting that the people watching at the time were kept from seeing the skeleton, but the cameras recorded and of course eventually aired.
Two decades of marvelous history, queries, connecting dots of excavations and reflections, plus the most marvelous and convivial, even comic episodes of a HISTORY ARCHAEO TEAM engaging us, making us think, critical and analytical insights to our world. Oh, thank you Mic Aston & your Colleagues, what Legacy of Goodness you set rolling into this world. Martha, Anthropologist, Texas May 2023
Brilliant episode!
I'd buy a garden just to have Time Team dig it for 3 days
Thanks for posting
what a cool church and grave yard. i love this mist.
I realized that we can 'date' this video to some extent in that there was one guy videoing the work with a video CAMERA .. and not a single smart phone to be seen
Smartphones are a fairly recent phenomenon. In fact, 20 years ago cellphones didn't even have a camera, and text messaging required multiple presses of a single button to enter a single letter. What's more, is that text messages were limited to no more than 150 characters. Hell, CZcams didn't even exist when this episode was filmed, and Amazon was still just an online bookstore. Hell, 20 years ago we didn't have Bluetooth and iPods. We were living in caves, watching DVDs, and hunting for batteries to put in our Sony Discman, because we used the Anti-Shock and Bass Boost at the same time, and killed our brand new batteries in fifteen minutes. Oh, and our internet was dial-up and Limewire was giving computers AIDS.
#edwardtraxler Plus, no one is in their trench ON their phone....or, taking selfies! Cheers stay safe.
Or we can just date them from the date...fucking moron.
@@maeve4686 no one would be. Stop being an ignorant sow.
thank you!!!!!
May the gods walk with you MA

Went to St Hilda's school (Qld Australia), lot of chat about Whitby, not so much about Hartlepool, Northumberland. Learn something new every day.
That's right Mick! Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam!
never been interested in hartlepoo, Hartlepool on the other hand is worth a visit
It's also not in Northumbria
I've heard that one may purchase exploding trousers there.
Is that near the village of Shartlepoo?
@@ancilodon I got a pair of those for free, the first time I tried jellied eel. There really ought to be a warning on those things, for Yanks like me.
So much preciousness.
Cold, wet, bleak, miserable. Densely built up and about as aesthetically pleasing as a slag heap. Never visited this place and am so happy about that.
I adore Phil Harding
omg, Hartlepool is gourgous! and those houses? I wanna go there one day.
I love my history , especially English history . Its interesting about St Hilda and I think they should come back and dig more
Hartlepool may have been in Northumbria but it's not in Northumberland. It's in County Durham, at least it was till Westminster stuck its nose into the locality.
I hate it when they dig up roses. Although if replanted (in that climate) after three days, they should survive.
If this were an American show originally it would be like " right at the end of day 3 we found a deceptacon from the cybertron wars! It even stil have fully functional missle systems. What a cracking dig)
No they would need Meagan Fox as the presenter, Or Kim K....
Did we dismantle it or were we stupid and kept it intact.
Or is that season 2???😊
54°41'54.91" N 1°10'42.44" W timeline set to 31/12/2005 googleearth shows you where the old monastic burial site is.
I often wonder, and this episode is an excellent example, whether non-christian bones are treated with the same respect as christian bones. Tony makes a point here of saying that these bones will be re-buried in christian consecrated ground. When TT finds non-christian burials, what was their procedure? Do those people also get proper reburial? Are they just science instead? There needs to be an equal respect, regardless of religion.
Sorry I can not change that. I do not know why it is blocked in england
There are tools (including vpn's) that can beat that, m8. Please reply when you can, I'll send you some recommendations.
I wish the sound on all these video across this playlist was balanced somehow. A lot of them are quiet, but this one is WAY quiet.
0:09 Standard weather for me, but I grew up with it 🤣
Nice.
"Did you know there were bodies underneath your lawn?"
lol silly gooose
Not a question to ask Ed Kemper... Just saying.
Sigh. she didn't reintroduce Christianity. Christianity on the continent suffered from migrations. The monks of Wales and Ireland brought back to the continent documents that had been destroyed. The point is that Gregory knew the Welsh rite was different from the Roman rite and the Irish church had a better calculation for Easter than the Roman church. But to exert his authority, he sent in Augustine to the pagans in the east. When Augustine's monks tried to rope the Welsh into helping, they refused: they had no interest in the pagans and quite despised them. So then the story was started that the Welsh had been wiped out. We know that the Celts of Britain were never wiped out because Y chromosome DNA in the southeast is up to 50% Celtic which you don't get if all the British Celtic males there were wiped out. The Germanic Victorians, who hated the Irish and especially the Irish Catholics, ignored that Augustine was a Catholic and fully adopted the "nasty Celts were wiped out" myth.
Maybe think of it as reintroduced to a more modern time for the area😊
St.Hilda image on the stain glass is a spitting image of Carenza Lewis!
I find it funny that they put plywood up to block the spectators from seeing the bones being removed, but show it on T.V?
Yes, I find that funny myself, but you get to watch yourself trying to see the cool bones over the wood.
And what you couldn't see in detail 😅
Humpybane I do !
There's an unblocker for the Firefox too.
so Hartlepool has been in County Durham, Cleveland and as a stand alone authority current situation). Now its moved to Northumbria?.. I've seen everything !
something to do with votes
I’m pretty sure they meant to type Hartlepool rather than hartlepoo in the caption. At first I marveled at how exotic British place names can be. Then I wondered what it would be like to announce you’re from a place called some kind of poo. It never ceases to amaze me how careless people (on both sides of the pond) can be about their CZcams captions after putting so much effort into producing quality shows (of various genres).
Another error - it's not in Northumberland
So it wasn’t just me that read “poo”?
UK charges TV tax. In the UK you can go to Channel 4 to find all Time Team episodes.
Hartlepool looks nice this time of year doesn't it?? :-)
Wind's dropped for once ;-)
is there ever any summer or sunshine in these places? suppose specially for those - 3 days - it is raining? sadly though, no showing how that book had looked like?
Maybe the dark ages weren't dark just really Grey and rainy 🤔
I love Phil Harding!
9:50 I love Tony!!!
Come to sunny Hartlepool Iol.
8:47 confused dog is confused
Where can I get one of those Mick Aston dolls?
I suspect his wife knit it, supposedly she made his striped sweaters and hat
@@morrigan191 Actually, all those items came from fans and his students. My daughter knitted the doll for him.
Was the music produced for the series or is it something else?
43:25 SHE strikes me as *BEING* ST HILDY! DIG UP THE ENTIRE BLOCK NOW!
Hartlepoo ! 😂😂😂thank you
First aired March 19, 2000.
Seeing as there were both monks and nuns at the monastery, I bet there were a few dalliances. Wonder how many babies were born.
Has a brush ever gone through the great man
Or a combe thru the hair of a fool 😊
What is the song called from 2:00?
Funny that they must block the skeletal remains from the public view on site yet show it on these shows. :/
Scott Stewart If you watch other episodes where they work with human remains, they usually wear sterile suits with face masks, and that's so they don't contaminate the remains with their own DNA so they can do a proper analysis in a lab later on. I'd guess they block the graves off from the public for the same reason - so (hopefully) their DNA doesn't contaminate the remains either. Lots easier than making every passerby wear a mask. ;)
See I thought they were just using the wood as shoring to retain some of the vertical cuts in the soil due to the danger of collapse and undermining the surrounding structures and walls.
So?
Someone help me remember... seems like there was an episode where they found an underground chamber of some sort, and then here comes Carenza in her mountaineering gear, and they rappel her down into it with a light to see what was down there? I'm not talking about the cave episode at Mendip, this was something else, like the remains of a castle on hilltop, and they broke through, and found a hole, so they lowered her down in there. Maybe I'm remembering wrong and it was one of the others, like Brigid, but I could swear it was Carenza.
+APIEngineering
Nevermind, found it, TT Special 09, (2001) the Bone Cave, Alveston, Gloucestershire. Carenza is so brave to go down into a deep dark pit filled with human bones `*shiver*`. My memory may be less than perfect, so they may have done this before on another site, with another Archy, But Carenza is certainly my hero.
I lurve Carenza
+APIEngineering She was indeed a 10 befofe she was misdiagnosed with cancer and had her breasts amputated leaving her a ghost of what she was
Leopararouen Or not. Check again before you start throwing words like that around.
Peak District Practice?
+Leopararouen ... not meaning to start an argument, but I think you mean rappelling.
But.. but... he didn't say "and we've just got 3 days to do it".
You are not supposed to notice now your on the list😂
I bet both days of summer there are nice.
Is’t Hartlepool in Durham 🤔
But as a foreigner I maybe wrong ….
I thought Hartlepool is in Durham.
Did Guy say Claudius was 3rd century ? The Claudius I know of was 1st century .
Tory HQ is now a pub 😁
who else thought that st. hilda glass window looks like carenza?
you are with me on that. Really looks like Carenza the beautiful.
@ 26:45, they cut out the woman finishing her sentence: "Yes fine. I'm leaving this hovel tomorrow anyway". lololol...
no I listened,she said we 'd be taking it down anyway'( the shed)
So when the homes and streets were built they knew they were building on top of graves? That always bothers me a little.
Since I started watching these Time Team videos I have been amused how blasé the Brits are about finding bodies in their yards. In the States, someone would be getting a lawyer and getting sued, followed by a made for TV movie.
On a small island like Britain with millions buried over millenia there are probably bodies buried almost wherever you walk!
@@daneclark3161 once a person is dead, they are dead. They are not floating around, at least that is my faith (Eccles 9:5). Probably get lots of flak for saying that since so many believe differently.
@@daneclark3161 lots of stuff built on native american sites in US
What type of accent does Phil have? I've heard a lot of different English accents but before I discovered time team I don't ever think I've heard that one.
I do believe he is Cockney. I could be wrong. I'm not brit.
That's a Wiltshire accent, I believe - he grew up there.
Gordon Adams Wurzle?
@@johnemerson1363 yep you're wrong :-) he's from Wiltshire, completely different sounding accent from the London Cockney one
Hartlepool is not and never has been in Northumberland. Read the captions accurately before you write - it says "Northumbria". There is a massive difference. The 'Hartlepoo' bit is probably right though.
I for one. Kind of un-nerving .... maybe an ancestor ...
She was a nun....probably not anyone's ancestor....
Here's the trench where they found the bones looking quite different today:
1 South Crescent
Hartlepool, UK
54.694269ºN, 1.178563ºW
right in minute 36.. he says because the body is under the mid evil layers it must be saxton .. well how many feet thick is the mid evil layer?? seems to me that a buried body would be at lease 3 to 4 feet to prevent animals from digging it up... so it would be in the lower layers.. other than that GREAT SHOW!!.. love it.. cant stop watching it..
From what I've gathered, any layer - be it Medieval or more recent - is on average about 3 meters thick. I think in some areas it might be a lot less, some areas a lot more. It depends on the use of the land since the period in question. And since the Saxons came before the Medieval period, that layer is below the Medieval one.
NolaGal2601
idk 3 meters is about 3 yards.. not quite but almost.. there holes would be like 9 ft deep.. somethings not right here.. the math is off.. dam common core...
That's why I said in some areas it might be more and others less. If a hill was built up over an area that was previously flat, standing at the top of the hill and digging through the center to get to what was previously flat will make a hole deeper than if you stood on a flat area near the hill and dug a hole down to the same level.
NolaGal2601
true..
hondaxl250k0 A lot depends on terrain too. A site at the bottom of an elevation could have deeper layers caused from erosion from the higher ground settling lower. With a tidal area like this location there's a multitude of variables due to storm effects, tidal etc that can remove or relocate soil.. If it's a river delta things get even more strange as rivers change course over time. Here in the states the Mississippi River is a classic example of change as even far up river it's moved many miles many times from the ancient channels. The old Riverboat pilots in the 1800's had to keep a close watch as sand bars were constantly shifting or disappearing in as short of time as a month or so depending on water flow.
I know that this show isabout archeology but I envy them for rain...
Its likely blocked in the UK because BBC 4 can legally block it in that collection of countries.
You can watch episodes on the timeline channel here on youtube. For anyone blocked by location
its Channel 4 who are independant from the BBC.
Tony just loves ribbing the fact that one trench is near a conservative party club.
Phil...... always on the hunt for his pot.
@31:35 👍🏼😎
And what about the monkey Hungus??
So much to be found in Oregon US! What of the Oregon Trail?
The historian on this show is like an actor in a movie playing a history professor.
Hartlepool is in County Durham and not Northumberland.
It takes a rather special mind to look at a skeleton and say that she is in good health. Well, for someone that has been dead for 1200 years, perhaps, but over all? Not so much.
Not really.
Kevin rules
Hartlepool is not, and never has been in Northumberland! It’s in County Durham!
As someone pointed above, he is not referencing present borders but historical ones
@@12412... fair enough. But if this is the case it should be the historical kingdom of NorthumbRIA, not NorthumbERLAND, which is a county north of the Tyne which has only existed since the Norman days... They are very very different things...

I am glad that they are going to reenter the nun. There is something so nice and right about that.
Nothing like a bit of re-entry LOL
She might not be so happy about you guys way of doing it....jus' sayin'
Better off dumping the squatter xtian floozy back into the sea!
Oh dear! It's re- inter. To "re-enter" isn't really a nice thought at all.
