Phil is my favorite: his devotion to his work intrigues me and encourages me to continue to encourage his efforts. My most important issue is to, somehow, meet Mr. Phil.
Paul Blinkhorn is the one who amazes me the most. Show him any 3 centimeter piece of pottery and BAM he nails it without blinking, often down to where it was made. ;-)
Stephen Donaldson wrote a great series called the chronicles of Thomas’Covenant. The main character was a leper and opened my young mind decades ago, to what leprosy was like. Highly recommend. May re -read
I love it when she says "this is only 2 or 3 hundred years old". I have never seen a building or anything over 120 yrs old. Well there is the white house but it is only the bricks that are 250 yrs old. I'd pee my pants to see something 500 yrs old and that is nothing to them.
Leprosy is still around yes, but it is still history as leprosy isn't the epidemic/pandemic levels it was in ancient times and the only way most people will learn about it is through things like archaeology, historical documents, medical records,etc. of the time it was a big problem plus any information gained from modern cases. The black plague is still around too, but in order to actually learn about what it was and how it affected the areas it took a strong hold in is to study history through archaeology or documents. The reason modern cases can't tell us much about it in history is because the modern cases are treated with the techniques developed over the centuries of study of the diseases, modern cases can tell us the causes and what treatments work, but they can't tell us about the effects of it on individuals (unless it was left to run its course on the individual) nor spreading in a large population, only history can tell us this.

@@forfarlassie how can it be "undiagnosed" when it has characteristic lesions and bumps? Furthermore, how can you be so sure that it's a problem, if so many are undiagnosed?

Um, you do realize that "viking" is a verb, right? We called ourselves Danes, Swedes, or simply Norsemen/Nords. If you're going to try and pontificate about obvious crap, at least be accurate.
@@andreasegde no it isn't you ignorant gobshite. The Norse would "go a viking". It's a verb that translates to "raiding". It's a word from Old Norse. Read a book, you television educated pedestrian asshat. I can trace my roots directly back to bannermen of Harald Hadrada, and have a degree in Norse history. Ignorance suits you.
it did change...btu then the normans gave us magna carta, modern law, parliament, and many words in our language. is this only biased, since the anglo-saxons created england and the presenters are english? do they know they are for sure? i'd bet most english people today are a broad mix of anglo-saxon, viking, norman and celtic. so don't diss the normans, your great x40 grandfather may get annoyed...
Why did they bother to show a program when they botched a dig as badly as they did the last one in this episode? Why not start the whole program over again once they know where to look?
Possibly to show that they're not 'wunderkind', that they DO make mistakes, and that they are just a TV production company trying to create a product. More kudos to them for 'uncovering' this aspect of their work. I'd love to see one on their handling of loss (theft) from within an active dig...
I get an uneasy queasy feeling when the team digs up an old grave. Those deceased friars and monks thought that their resting place was for eternity. & 'Yes I'm Catholic and still believe in God.
Sorry, dude, but the date that came to mind was not 1066 but 1776. I am not a Brit! And every time you say "Norman" I think of a t-rex with buck teeth, thick glasses, and a pocket protector as drawn by a cartoonist.
I am every bit 1776 as you. But, this is pretty basic history and applicable to us as well. How do you NOT know who the Normans were? Honest question. Not trying to be a jerk.
British history is so incredibly rich. I love these old Time Team shows. Thanks!
I don't even live in England and I still picked 1066 😂 Time Team has taught me so much, thank you for sharing it! Much love from Oklahoma U.S
Phil firing the cannon and laughing his head off is priceless!
"I think we've missed!"--Phil is hilarious. And Robin was a close second: "Robin is completely mad."
Love Robin, so dapper!
Phils laugh while shooting the cannon is infectious. Thanks for sharing tt w us in the state.

Funny how men tend to revert to giggling little boys anytime they get to play with something that goes BOOM.
Phil is having too much fun with that cannon. Lol

He is amazing, isn't he? And does it so quickly!
I know I'd be lucky to know it's pot,.....
Okay pottery 😅😂
I'm loving these compilation episodes. Thank you for posting.
13:26 Tony did a Pink Floyd " Run Like Hell" LOL
Thanks for the great information Reijer
Love these compilations.
Thank you .... For the look at the past
Thanks for this
Margaret is a beautiful lady all throughout the shows, especially in this early one. She does not seem to age.
Reijer Zeijer...YOU ROCK!

Run tony run tony!
lol being USA born, July 4, 1776 was the very important date that flashed into my mind. 🇺🇸
We are Creatures of our Environment.
And 1492 sprang to my mind.
Nope 1066 when it seems it made England "a home country " became modern....
USA born.....
33:00 That musical editing was on point, especially given the Leprosy Hospital they were excavating.
Wow, how AMAZING😮😮😲
Bedankt maar weer!
13:44 Robin must have thought why does Phil get all the exploding bits !?
Mick got to fire a canon on one of the other episodes. You could tell he loved it. Such pure joy.
@@deborahparham3783o would too never did that either!!!!!
Little boys do love things that go BOOM. It is such fun watching those guys giggle like little kids.
"Most of this stuff is only two or three hundred years old."
Here in Ohio, USA that would be amazing.
Everyone is my favorite.

There are buildings in Philadelphia that are late 1600s, one built by one of my ancestors. The Botanical Gardens.
I am very interested because my ancestor was the head of standard bearers for William
Thanks! :D
At 13.20 , this is the funniest thing I have ever seen on Time Team.
Vielen Dank.
This was filmed before I was even born… wow
Welcome to watching history 😊
Good Tony can we have more looking at all rural areas ok uk. Thanks jc
The Nornans weren;t just French, they had a lot of Scandian ancestrery , as do I
Well they did come from the viking influence I believe....
Every time they show window glass you cant see through it. Im guessing windows were for light. Otherwise they're just a security risk.
At 12:10, don't you mean "a cunning plan", Tony?
At 00:12 Think of an historical date... CIIIR's coronation, yesterday ?
Uh, who???
Sorry 😊
#timeteaminthe2020s
1066- started calling cow Beef !
Good beef sounds better on a menu 😊
Hey thats my norman ancestors home 👍🏻
Chicksands is where a USAF secret facility was located.
Shush, no one is supposed to know.....
Norman was a bad dude.
Should have met his kids 😂😂😂
If Tony is interested in lepers, he should go take a look at the countries where there still are lepers, he makes it sound like history, but it isn't
In the *UK* it _is_ history.

It's Dies Irae (Day of Judgment) from Mozart's Requiem.

I still do not understand why they never went to Colchester castle.it has Saxon,Norman an Roman history.
mine was actually 1492 :-)
Mine was 1776....
It was 1066!!!!!!
240p can't see
this show is very watchable, despite them rarely finding anything noteworthy!
Oh, I disagree, they find some amazing things.
The Normans were really called the ‘Norsemen’, meaning the Vikings...

I understand but be assured that the remains are treated respectfully. They are reburied in _currently_ consecrated ground.
Do you believe in Santa too? How about the Easter Bunny? Do you think the Earth is flat? Believing in something doesn't make it real.
@SkunkApe407 be nice you probably don't believe in anything no need to be an a.. about it is there?????
By the way neither do I say something about that.....
