Happy Birthday, Time Team!

Too many adds to make this worth watching…

Yes, on Drake's Island.

gordon bennett tony looks like gonzo from the muppet show...what you get with a young woman lol

John Philip Holland is said to have invented the submarine in 1875. Who also happened to build these Holland subs for the British Royal Navy.

I've been watching time team for years and years. Possibly since the start of the show. I went to college to study archaeology and loved it. Somewhere along the line life got in the way and I never became an archaeologist. But instead got behind the camera. Working for woodcut media making history documentaries. Now I'm a videographer and editor. Would love to know how I could get involved if possible. Possibly working on episodes.

14 minutes and no adverts noticed. I should say I don’t sit and watch a documentary with Tony to count adverts

Germany didn't surrender in Nov 1918 an armistice was agreed upon. Its not the same thing. Actually WW1 didn't end until the treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919 get your facts right Tony Robinson.

3:02 - compare that giant to a small german sub type 212 which predecessor U32 has prooven in 2001 to sink the american aircraft carrier Enterprise cause the dived through the destroyer escort group and achieved to shoot the green test torpedoes and an image before they appeared on the surface next to the carriere . Now they have a fuel cell propulsion on board of type 212 and will get even easier inside the escort group cause that propulsiion is more quite.

I wish they would shit can the HOMO music good Lord is just blast you out I want to hear about subs no HOMO music

Always felt Phill should become a Sir as well.

I see all my favorites and think wow they look older now. Then I realize what a minute. We are the same age. We are all getting older. But age is a state of mind. Archeologists stay in shape with all that digging.

Imagine if Truss hadn't been in power. Thirty billion incinerated. That would have given us a fleet of 38 SSN's and immediately the world's third most dangerous naval power. But....she existed and she did it.

The RN Holland class boats were copies of the USN's USS Holland (SS1)

Enjoyed the video very much. Thank you!

Nice to see Phil on the program again

Fascinating episode. I wish I were more tolerant, but the country bumpkin does my nut in. Thank god for Tony Robinson.

It's curious to think that Conan Doyle published his 42nd Surlock Holmes story the Bruce-Partington Plans, in December 1908! SIX years before WW1 started. Even then the Submarine was being described as a game changer. By the American Civil war it was clear this technology was important.

But everyone knows Vikings did not have horns on their helmets. This was common knowledge when I was a kid in the early '70s. {:o:O:}

It was actually unrestricted submarine warfare, not naval

I didn't know they had no fatal accidents in the Holland class boats. That's rather impressive with a prototypical, petrol engined boat.

Biscuits brown and cheese possessed. Despite the calorie count in Rat packs men still loose weight in the modern Army. @TimeTeam have you ever thought of a dig at Blandford Camp/Garrison?

Sad it's not the original team

The Vikings did have an empire. It's referred to as the North Sea Empire ruled by Cnut. They missed the bit out when they're was a viking on the throne!

Love the show,love Tony,love this episode... But... 14 min of Xtra time and unskippable commercials in a 47 min video is a bit excessive in my humble opinion... Absolute unwatchable like this unfortunately 😥 Hate saying it.

OMG TONY AND PHIL!!! OH MY HEART IS SO HAPPY!

Why was queen Elizabeth's coffin lead lined,what is that protecting her from?

“Ram Packed” @3:30🙉👎Goodbye.

The first British military sub was the Holland 1 which was launched after the USS Holland was commissioned.

A sub that sank while being towed… a success?

Phil!!!!!

Did they get rid of the other host? Tony back full time?

why dont they raise this one to?

9:09-we got ourselves a dead head folks!!STEAL YA FACE!!🤪

Fab 👍

Can't wait

The Germany, France and the USA might legitimately dispute the assertion that the UK invented/built the first viable military submarines. as these nations built them during 1700s and 1800s. The first submarine to sink a vessel was the CSS Hunleywhich sank the USS Husatonic in 1864. Unfortunately the shock wave killed the Hunley's crew and although the Hunley wasn't damaged it was lost as there was no crew to blow the Hunley back to the surface.

The sinking of three British Cruisers deserves a bit of detail. Action was on 22 September 1914. U-9 commanded by Kapitänleutnant Otto Weddigen sank HMS Aboukir, HMS Cressy, and HMS Hogue with the loss of 1,459 sailors. Site is about 40 Miles west of Den Helder in the Netherlands.

hi there, not forgetting the M 1 sub sunk off Plymouth after colliding with a ship and sent to the bottom, the sub had a big gun mounted on it

Unfortunately I missed this episode. It's one of the best in this series 👍

a german ww1 u boat UB98 which was scrapped at Porthmadoc harbour in 1922, some of the hull plates were used in Moelwyn tunnel on the Ffestiniog railway

Whilst being broadcast in Channel Four I was a member of the TimeTeam club, I offered my services with a mechanical digger but was informed that they use local diggers and operators. They could have had a keen procipient as well as free diggers. I really would have supported being who I was.

Don't forget the blood thirsty Crusaders and the Knights Templar. Both given over as heros. In reality, they were maurading killers under the sign of their idol.

The wreck is too deep for Phil at 35m give or take. Makes you realise how dangerous the "depths" are when only a few metres make something "too deep". Until oxygen is required nobody says some hill is "too high" to ascend. I guess I explained that with "Until oxygen is required..." As a kid Jacque Cousteau made the underwater world look so easy and he was pioneering it!

The Christins made a huge successful business of converting, enslaving ,killing and taking land and resources. What a great history.

The Monitor and the Merrimack were the first 2 subs ever used in war. The US Civil War.

Civil war in the Americas had the first sub

Ah Shur god bless the Irish for creating such a sneaky weapon 😏
