While it's wonderful to join Tony, it's a delight to see Phil.
Hey, it's Phil Harding! Y'all are together again. This is a great series. And then the end of the poem... profound.
Grimes Graves, Tony and Phil, someone's idea of paradise. Phil inspired new generations to explore flint knapping and more. So wonderful to see the reunion at Grimes Graves.
Ooh a nice hike with Tony through the lovely countryside and having an informative chat along the way. I find my mind drifts along the timeline wondering what long passed people saw and did as they traveled; how the journey must've made them feel. It's nice to put aside the hustle of modern life and just reflect on the nature surrounding you.
💚🏜️ thank you Mr Robinson, I love listening to you as I do my daily chores 💚
Phil 💜
How I've missed Phil!
This whole walk was delightful . And Tony and Phil together. They are my favorites.
Phil is my spirit animal.
Wow ! This is so cool ... thanks you and thanks Tony
Oh it was a joy to hear Phil's delightful accent. Such a great show too. As a Canadian, I know so little about the UK's history and countryside life, and well Tony makes such a delightful travelling companion.
Absolutely fascinating.
Tony you're the best!
❤❤❤ I love this 😊
The singing at about 22:30 is haunting, beautiful.
I'm still in love with Phil Harding. ❤
Sooo interesting! Thank You so much.
Phil!! His friend is Phil!
Thank you
Yay Phil! 😁
It's good to see the hats still about 😂
Sound is so much better than "Timeline".
what is the music in the beginning? so beautiful.if anybody knows?
Only Phil Harding could wax lyrical about flint. He'd love Ohio, USA, where the state gemstone is flint. (No, really -- look it up.)
I can't help but think I am listening to Hagrid, keeper of keys of Hogwarts, when Phil is speaking. Phil has the same enthusiasm for rocks and dirt and history, as Hagrid had (has) for magical creatures.
Knees are better than mine Tony....
Are there any forests left in Britain?
Yes.
Imma stop you at 'Ley Lines'
How did "these people" know where to dig those pits ? ........ walking in a lot of growth, so are there ticks in Britain ?
I would venture to guess that the guy at 35:00 owns a copy of Led Zeppelin IV.
If you touch hogweed you can get severe burns, rashes and blisters! At least the stuff around here!
There's a difference between hogweed, which is native to UK, and Giant Hogweed which is an alien plant from the Caucasus region and brought into UK in 1911 so I understand. Ordinary hogweed is quite harmless, but Giant Hogweed is to be avoided at all costs as just touching it can result in severe burns.
Thanks for making that distinction for anyone thinking that those Hogweeds are the same.
Dowsing? Seriously? What's next? Astrology?
Hey now...come folks swear by dowsing. More importantly, it's been used for that purpose in those places for thousands of years
@@johnlonkert7187
"used for thousands of years"? That's your argument? :D
Bloodletting was also used for a long time. Do you want that the next time you have a fever?

A grown man in the modern world... Using dowsing rods. Embarrassing.
Why destroy a good series with some mumbo jumbo like dowsing! There is absolutely no proof of it working or even indications anything.
It’s like being convinced Santa exist and the flat earth society is about science. Sad that Tony gets involved in this, believe it was once on time team also, correct me if I am wrong below.
