Was This Industrial Town One Of Roman Britain's Most Important Cities? | Time Team | Odyssey

[@ericdavid199]

Time Team is amazing. Never would have discovered it without you tube.

[@riaanshaigh1338]

Who would have thunk that Baldrick from Black Adder would capture the world with teaching history and eventually become knighted. Love ya Tony

[@nicolawebb6025]

Or that republican Tony would want a Knighthood

[@PaulMahon-w2b]

Never seen the episode where Baldrige is universal ruler?????

[@TrophyNZ1]

Could you imagine how cool it would have been to go on one of these digs with this crew

[@gregmunro1137]

Lol- the amount and colour!!!

[@TrophyNZ1]

@Kevin DeSau haha, i hear ya

[@maddiethomas5892]

From what I've hear of Castleford... I hope they locked everything up and locked their doors at night. 😂

[@ismellstatic]

John's long, nervous explanation of his plan for the football pitch dig followed by Tony ignoring everything he'd said, turning to the small crowd and saying "ladies and gentlemen, this man is about to stick a bore hole through his anomaly" and then walking away may be my favourite joke in the history of this series. So sharp, so quick, so smoothly done.

[@206stonner]

the way i can tell how old or new the episodes are by how much hair Tony has left

[@InquisitorMatthewAshcraft]

It's all part of his cunning plan😅

[@janepedersen3913]

Me too!

[@bettyir4302]

Phil's locks always stay the same.

[@DMKRP]

😂

[@susaniacuone5758]

And how many wrinkles. But yes, mainly the hair

[@RamblinJer]

So all those pots Phil was pointing out, is that what you call pot luck? 😄

[@NjK601]

Huh, just when you think you've seen all of Time Team, a random one drops out of nowhere

[@somedude6161]

I don't recall ever seeing this one either

[@lyllydd]

@@somedude6161 Several episodes that had only ever been shown in Great Britain on BBC were released to the world as Time Team Odyssey.

[@PaulMahon-w2b]

Blessings to getting old an memory loss!!!!!

[@NjK601]

@@PaulMahon-w2b Well, before the official channels started uploading, I was mainly watching through someone called, Reijer Zaaijer's channel, and I just don't think he had this one uploaded.

Imagine you show an ancient Roman glass-blower one of our modern glass sky-scrapers.

[@jonathaneffemey944]

Thanks for posting.

[@steveschultz300]

I sure wish that Odyssey would number these videos. Or put the date of televising. I would like to see them in historical sequence. Also, Has Odyssey thought about having a tour of the digs? Maybe a 6-7 day excursion for us tourists from America.

[@AdamBechtol]

8:22 Wowza, that immense level of flirting only helps to confirm my suspicion that Phil is a colossal Casanova 😋. With his Indiana Jones attire and playful pub-like attitude, I can see how he'd be secretly big with the ladies. Also neat how that other guy knows and gives us the form numbers for the pottery.

[@PaulMahon-w2b]

Last sentence leaves a great joke to the Imagination of Phil's skills...

[@parisite99]

If you think you found the road under the river, why not cut a trench on the bank to confirm? We’ve seen GPR get other hits wrong that they were so sure of. Makes me scratch my head.

[@nicolawebb6025]

Probably the Environment Agency won't allow disturbance of the river bank. You never know what unintended consequences messing with a river can have

[@andrewthornley5172]

I also suspect that it would need to have been an incredibly deep trench.

[@rickb3078]

That village now is essentially one big parking lot. They should be able to do plenty of digs

[@653j521]

Put the museum over the dig like in Dublin and continue to explore it.

[@matismf]

How long until we get more Hilde van der Heul?

[@philroberts7238]

Isn't she working now with Dig Ventures? Check them out.

[@allygee5468]

Time Team was Mick Astons invention he wanted to bring archaeology to the wider world this excellent show was on BBC and sponsored by them too hence the 3 day timeline Phil appeared in every episode He works with Wessex Uni The new Time Team which has some if the old team in there is run maimly on subscriptions on YT and Patreon Sir Tony has recently rejoined them i think no Phil Harding at this stage But yes I would have loved to be on these digs Archaeology was one of my career choices but sadly was unable to do it

[@chrisbassett8996]

I hope someone is actually watching where that boat is going.

[@maddiethomas5892]

Ugh! We have family near there. Castleford is someplace you don't go at night. Not a nice town... I wonder is Time Team had any issues in that regard.

[@robroy5352]

do you mean GANGS of muzim shitheads???????

[@aubreymellor1293]

so sick of him telling us they've only got three days - yet NEVER telling us why.

[@jasoncampbell9048]

Pretty sure these are always exploratory digs, to check if the site is worth a longer, more staffed (and therefore more expensive) effort. And allot of these guys had normal jobs w/ other institutions and could only participate for the 3 days.

[@annazaman9657]

The more the days the more expensive it gets. Also these were shot on the weekend and people had other jobs to go to the rest of the week

[@philroberts7238]

And that was the brief from Channel 4, the television company financing the series of programs.. There are many explanations on many of these videos explaining the very good reasons why these programs were restricted to just three days.

[@aubreymellor1293]

@@annazaman9657 so they are amateurs?

[@componenx]

These folks all have regular jobs, so a long week end is the only way to get their services on a regular basis. Remember, they are doing many digs per year, so it's either hire them full time, or use the long weekend method.

Always blurry images.

It's before HD.

[@Screensavour]

It’s because it was recorded 21 years in the past. The past is always blurry.

I really enjoy your channel but I have seizures and your spinning camera work is making sick. Please keep this in mind with the speed and flashing. Your information was great Please keep that up. 👍
