When a colony of moles brings up pieces of mosaic floor in a Cotswold field, Tony Robinson and the team investigate whether the findings could be linked to a nearby Roman villa discovered almost 200 years ago. A local spring might give a clue to the true purpose of the building. The team are joined by local archaeologist Roger Box, and Roman specialists David Neal and Richard Reece.

This episode aired on 29 January, 2006, which means that it was filmed in 2005. Note around the 30 minute mark when everyone is having a drink outside in the back of the pub. No one is on a phone or has their head buried in an electronic device, everyone is actually speaking to each other at every single table. Smartphones weren't around then, with the 1st Gen iPhone being released in 2007. I really miss those days, just a scant 15 years ago.

The fact that flip phones were around in 2004 as I still have mine even though it no longer works. Not very many were out, and technology has changed since the early 2000s. And when Time Team was airing in the mid to late 1990s, they weren't exactly showing their series beyond the UK. I didn't even know about Time Team until I first found them 8 years ago here on KZbin and I've been following them ever since, even going back when Netflix, Hulu, or Tubi have all their seasons from se 1 ep1 to current, on their rotation as well as KZbin.

@@davepask4706 Ive already seen Dig 1. Some good archaeology, but they failed to build a narrative. Its early days yet so Ill give them time to develop the chemistry. What I loved most about the old show was its ability to give a site some coherent narrative, even when you end up (like they did in Dig 1) with a lot of different time periods all sharing the same location. Considering the raw material they had to work with, I found that the first dig fell flat, in that sense. Not one for the all-time archives, but it is wonderful to see Time Team back in action.

I see a lot of complaints about the show being only 3 days. Yes, I understand what is being said but if it was more the people who pillage antiques and ancient history would be out in droves looking for a treasure. It is safe covered back up again and hopefully will be worked by professionals some time in the future. I used to wish it was more than three days too, until I started seeing lots of KZbin videos about "Abandoned castles" etc. They weren't abandoned, people were trespassing and filming where the sites/buildings were. I am thankful for Time Team and the reverence they show during each show, for the frail pottery and even the hard packed dirt someone used as their house floor. It is an honor to watch.

A river in a populated area is not a safe source for drinking water. People at that time use a river to clean there wash; animals stand in or on the water and people uses Rivers to get rid of some trash. But a spring, not far away, with a closed canal tube system and a well on its end or a basin was perfect.

The reality is that most of these digs can be regarde as preparation for larger scale digs which will be made over the following months or years. I've worked on a few digs in the past. One lasted only as few days prior to development work and uncovered a manor house that was destroyed following the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII. Another lasted nearly a year, and was on the site of one of Henry's hunting lodges.
@k-matsu
@k-matsu 2 жыл бұрын
Ive had the same thought myself, and Ive heard that both Mick and Phil expressed similar complaints over the years. But in the end, they stuck with the format because it was the only way they could "package" a show about archaeology. Just imagine how challenging it would be to try to make a one-hour TV programme out of a long-term, in-depth dig that could take months or years to complete. The three-day time limit was not about the archaeology, it was about the TV production issues and the need to have new episodes every week. Im pretty sure that many of the sites they worked, on Time Team, were "taken over" by other archaeologists, or will be at a later date. Ive even seen a much later documentary (starring former Time Team member Alice Roberts) that dealt with a site that had formerly been worked by Time Team, and clearly had been excavated much more extensively by a team from a nearby university.

Time easily covers these places. Dirt, dust, debris, grasses, digging, animals all these things add up.think about a busy office that doesn't get vacuumed or dusted for a year. Just normal use can really add up if no one is caring for the area. It really doesn't take a Vesuvius.

I don't know if it's because I'm watching this in a 4kUHD TV, but in the image from above (40:52), there's CLEARLY a square-shaped outline (the lower line is a little bit above the on-screen 'Middle Field' text), then the right one runs slightly diagonally, with its bottim-right corner next to the 'upper' large tree - the 'higher'of the 2 in the darker field to the left of the 'Middle Field' text), and the left side of the square runs diagonally - x-ing the road, and it's top-most corner's right after the 'line' appears on the right-hand field. The 4th side I can't make out, clearly, but it seems that it can't be natural, as it's both straight (connected) lines, forming a geometric shape, which is slightly askew. I've just looked at the same image, but, on my phone, and it's there.

Absolutely fascinating. Why only give themselves three days, though? They were unearthing a mosaic, it seems that once they were actually uncovering things of such historical significance, they stopped working. Surely I've missed something that initially explains the reason for such a limited amount of time they were given.

What I really like about this site's showing of Time Team is that at least some of the KZbin adverts happen when the actual adverts were on the original C4 broadcast. I got really excited by Time Team Official when it launched ( kzbin.info ) but got into massive arguments within a week about adverts every 4th minute. I asked if I could watch advert free if I supported them on Patreon, and all I got was abuse, but that's Time Team fans, and some of them could live happily in the Neolitic. The 'Official' site's videos now has much less adverts, but I appreciate this channel allowing me to watch with sensible advert breaks.
