There are no words I can think of to express how much I love this channel. My family has been in the New York City area only since the 1870s. Before that they were in NE Scotland, Ireland, and Yorkshire for centuries. Every time I watch an episode I think to myself that the places the crew is working could very well be my ancestors home. It gives me chills. Thank you all for your comments that are educating me and for the people who made this amazing show.

With the last representative drawing, at 46:15, I suddenly had an intrusive thought. (I live in Cornwall, in St Austell, and am WELL aware of how intense the weather can be down here) The drawing, showing the site and the works (I refuse to call it a cairn), and it struck me that it looked more defensive for the lower community than anything else. Not defensive against an attacking group, but to divert heavy rains away from the village proper. If you've spent any decent amount of time here, you'll know that we get pounded by meterological elements from either side of the peninsula as they make landfall, resulting in the most extreme variation in climate. When the rain's very heavy, it can turn the hills into dangerous places, and such constructed works would have been well placed to help try and divert some of the rain as it came from higher up the slopes.

And also that they have to shoot certain 'scenes' multiple times, to have it filmed close-up, ànd from a distance without a camera crew in the frame. So much going on, besides the plain old archeology itself.

Time Team were once doing an excavation in the village I used to live in, so a friend and I went down to have a look. When we arrived, Tony was snoozing in the car, the others were having lunch, and the digging was being done by about a dozen students from Exeter University. One of the students found something, so the producer told them to cover it back over with a bit of soil, grabbed Phil from his lunch, woke Tony up, and set up the whole shot of Tony pretending to walk between trenches, coming over to Phil, and Phil lifting away the soil pretending to 'discover' the poor anonymous student's find on camera :p

​@wewenang5167 he's descended (on his matrilineal side, iirc) from the Celtic Britons who inhabited the land from the British Iron Age onwards-- their descendents diverging into other Celtic tribal groups and interbreeding with later Saxon/Germanic invaders. As such, they are considered indigenous to the British Isles. If you go back far enough into human history, then virtually *no group* can be considered indigenous to *anywhere* , save, perhaps, the place in which the very first anatomically modern humans diverged from our most recent hominid ancestors.

absolutely fascinating that the bronze age people are actually responsible for the destruction of the forest on the moors. I thought that was much later happening and todo with ship building. Totally groundbreaking easter island moment here.

Regarding the dwelling/cairn:- a stone dwelling similar to an Irish Clochán or Italian Trullo would surely collapse into a "cairn" over a few millennia ! (many of these ruins to be seen among the fields and olive groves around Alberobello in Italy’s Apulia region)

I dont get why if the mound road thing was for the Tor then why is it not pointed at the Tor? Why does it go straight off up one way then curve towards the Tor near the upper end?

I don't know how Phil did it. Decades of digging earth, rocky soils, stone foundations and tumbled bricks. A crippling and hand punishing work. And yet... He sports some of the longest finger nails you see on men. Most guys (and gals) I know, that have done a lot of manual labour, keep their nails trimmed short. Thus sparing themselves the constant tearing and raggedy nails that also trap a lot of dirt. Not our Phil! With the greasiest nasty hat, to flyawy hair and sideburns. To his Dutch Army surplus unmended combat jackets and holey sweaters. To torn his jean short-shorts and scuffed boots: Phil marches to the beat of his own drum. A true timeless character of Archaeology.

Totally completely love TT, but surely at 12.23 they were contaminating the soil sample from thousands of years ago with current running water with current seeds and modern pollen! Ignoring that - love TT ! Please bring it back.

Hang on, you're washing a soil sample, from which you hope to find pollen and seeds, in a stream flowing across open grassland? I would have thought that the stream water would contain minute traces of pollen etc anyway, therefore you are contaminating your sample...

yes, easily. The weather seen here isn't anywhere near as bad as it gets. There's times when the fog doesn't lift for days, and you can only see a few feet. That's when you use that giant row of stones as a marker for where the hell you are
