Time Team Specials S19-E02 Geophysics Compilation

[@MTWood]

Tony and team has literally saved my life by giving me a distraction from reality when my mind wanted to tell me it was time to check out… for all of TIME and quit the TEAM. (See what I did there?) 😂 No, seriously. Saved me during a very dark time. I watched every episode I could get my hands on. This one is new to me. Thanks for posting.

[@blaggercoyote]

Happened to me too about six months ago.

[@ledacedar6253]

After 2 yrs of binging on Time Team's wonderous works I've never seen this but it was very obvious that the old Guard of archelogy permeated Tony, Phil's attitude, even Mick's. He's a patient wiser man for thriving and waiting for the rest to catch up.

[@johnarnell4241]

Can't believe after watching tt for years most episodes many times this one passed me by.

[@LisaMarli]

More fun. Watching John Gater with the newest technologically in the New Episodes. Geophysics has ramped up their graphics. It is lovely. You still need to dig up whatever John has found to understand the archeology, but you can better understand what you are looking for.

[@robertwbraiden]

What a terrific episode this was. A lovely find. If only Tony had known what was to come when he did his piece-to-camera at the end about the future.

[@areyouavinalaff]

John Gater and his surveys were some of the best aspects of time team... 3 days work would have yielded far less without geophysics, and the results are always "exciting". Of course it's the digging that shows what's there, but there's no better groundwork than geophysics as a precursor to digging. I love Physics and I love John's geophysics. Good on ya, John, you made a great team a better team.

[@reubenaberlin]

Without a doubt

[@jeffreychurch2018]

Phil often hassled John but quite often he wouldn't start digging without the geophys results

[@maeve4686]

I wish I had a group of mates like them. I love they chose an occupation where they can still dig in the dirt and get paid for it!

[@InquisitorMatthewAshcraft]

Why do you think I chose it? Love it 😊

[@silkysays3557]

thank you reijer,I 'oved this program since I first found it. I have your kindness to thank for awaking the little girl who dug for teacups & mummies in her grandfather's fields.

[@TravisBrady-wn8fr]

Great show. Great job guys.

[@stanlindert6332]

Looking at them beers and that menu making my mouth water.

[@TheAlfsterino]

A machine to see into the future would show Channel 4 sticking a trowel into Time Team's chest.

[@Khalifrio]

More like sticking the trowel in Time Team's back after the attempt to add in a bit of sex appeal with Miss shiny teeth that came with a big chest as a bonus. Mick saw what was up and bailed on the whole mess.

[@joshschneider9766]

I wonder if the Saxon smiths hated sweeping up hammer scale as much as I do lol

[@bjorreb7487]

This was really really interesting. I think I have more trust in Johns work than many of the diggers and now we got to know how geophys works and how to read the result.

[@fredgrove4220]

Time Team just wouldn't be the same without John, Stuart and Henry.

[@belwynne1386]

Phil in a jacket, flat cap, and knickers. Worth it for that alone! Actually, this was good fun.

[@brian554xx]

Ideal Time Team strategy: Morning, day one: As early as possible, somebody begins finding documents and maps, giving them only a brief look for now, for a rough idea what they say. Stewart walks about while John starts with mag, Mick makes his best guesses of a big, deep trench with vague stratigraphy for Phil, a narrow, meandering trench for Matt, and a few test pits for Raksha and whoever else. Then Mick consults with Stewart to give John priorities for res and maybe radar, and to give Henry targets for GPS and/or augering for details hard to get otherwise. Mick and Stewart get in a helicopter. They're back in time for lunch, where the whole group discusses what they see so far. Afternoon, day one: Coverings are brought in anywhere that may be hit by rain or hot sun, secured against wind. Armed with maps, Stewart begins to refine his understanding, consulting with Mick anytime something seems important. John finishes the major targets, possibly redirected by Mick from time to time. Everyone working trowels has plenty to get on with. Evening meeting at the pub to plan day two. Days two and three are for answering questions that come up and for nailing down any ambiguity. Very site-specific.

[@monicacall7532]

Phil and John should become a comedy team. They’re hilarious together!

[@32166]

What a wonderful collection!! Thank you so much!

[@billyank1864]

John Gaiter is the bomb

[@jimdille6015]

Thanks for posting, Reijer! I've learned so much about Britain and been well entertained in the process. Too bad the US version of the show is nowhere near as good. Often wondered if Geophiz John drives a Volkswagen. His favorite pointer looks like a VW key.

[@yulenapern6191]

Hold on there, Tony - you haven't told us how long we have to figure out how Geophysics works. (it's three days, right??)

[@janetsanders5356]

TT never lacked for clever creativity

[@jeffcavalieri4091]

Radar: invented by bats. 36:40

[@jimjenkins673]

I want to know why Jon always used his car keys as a pointer in so many episodes. (32:00). I bet someone could track which cars he owned throughout the years

[@kayleeriley3591]

LOL I am blind so I never knew that that is great

[@reubenaberlin]

Phil the Proto Archaeologist lol

[@Libbathegreat]

I want to know how drunk they had to get him to convince him to wear those leggings XD

[@rca88]

John gives a great summary of the different geophys techniques here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpymhZqvqbR1aJo

[@michaelkamradt4700]

Soil samples should be taken along with the electronic surveys. What shows up on electronics may not be what you presume.

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

17:28 Tony in his Eminem hair days.

[@blaggercoyote]

Baldrick has certainly gone grey over the years. And bald, appropriately! :-)

[@Julian_Wang-pai]

LIDAR..? Laser Imaging, Detection and Ranging - the current breakthrough topographic survey technology.

[@donthespotter6550]

Wow my metal rods in my back might affect geophisics

[@clairenicky]

Why is it that I can watch some of your videos but s19 E 1,3,4,7,8,9,10 and 11 say unavailable in my country??

[@InquisitorMatthewAshcraft]

Thank the BBC (BS broadcasting company).

[@benediktmorak4409]

good for them! to seldom is their hard work noticed. not bz Tony. he knows, that without them, they are - blind -...and they are for sure much earlier there than - just three days-...

[@lindasue8719]

Serma there's a typo there ...According to IMDB this is S19:12

[@foxsmolders2632]

ANTH 2100 UoM!!

[@joshschneider9766]

Geophysics is actually several distinct technologies. woulda thought they would know that after twenty years lol

[@NothingToNoOneInParticular]

What we need is Tony and Phil back on the reboot Time Team!! Horrible new presenter. Fook.

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

I could have done without the endless repetition of 'geofizz.' How much time was saved leaving off the '-ics'?
