    " Go watch your tv show on the bedroom tv where they dig holes in the ground." This is what my wife tells me when I don't like what she is watching. Time Team never disappoints me.
  • @raedale6472
    I love watching this, especially to fall asleep listening to at night and I do it so much that I've started dreaming with everyone having a British accent 🤣🤣
  • @kreiner1
    I have so fallen in love with this show, and I really couldn't understand it. I'm not that into British history, and Roman is my least favorite time. I realized it's the archeological itself that I find fascinating, and Phil has stolen my heart. I love how excited he gets over a tiny shard of stone, or how he sees so much in the soil changes.

    “Up On Phil's trench it is a wonder how he will make any sense of these pile of stones but at least Phil is happy, “ it is just worth listening to time team for Tony’s sarcasm

    9:26 - It rains on the wide open moors. Phil takes off his coat so it can dry: "Oh, Bliss." And I sit inside, dry, and enjoy all of it. Thanks so much Time Team, for all that you did and do, in past, present and future.

    I literally got back from stomp round Bodmin Moor earlier today, looking at the settlement and cairn, to find that this had just been posted. Absolutely superb, it is a great site to visit :-) Well worth also looking at the Neolithic Tor Enclosure on Rough Tor itself as well (there are 3 stone circles that are nearby as well).

    one of my most treasured memories is when I was on a pony camp in the 70´s and we rode on Bodmin Moor, I was only a teen then from Sweden but fell helplessly in love with Cornwall and I will enjoy this..

    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.
  • @StarChild420
    Its just amazing there is so much history in UK's soil that a whole show with so many seasons could be made. Why can't tv be more interesting like Time Team?🙈
  • @philjohnson1744
    Every shot of that countryside is Moor beautiful than the last.
  • The layout of the (animated) village made me think of an authentic Fijian village I've visited years ago. People all over the world and time think the same when it comes to practical solutions.
  • @bonzey1171
    Went up there with my missus a few years back, that line of stones is absolutely massive
  • HOLY COW!! I’m an American and had to look up how far 500 meters is… THAT’S OVER 5 US FOOTBALL FIELDS!! To quote Phil, “that’s a great whacking distance!!”.
  • @PtolemyJones
    I wonder how often they spend time telling each other things they already know, for our edification.
  • @carlthorpe5538
    It was a fun episode to do... but certainly the wettest Time Team I took part in :)
  • @alanhughes6753
    I used to know the Rough Tor well since my parents lived near by, and my wife, children and myself often climbed the Tor (the children just loved the top). I still feel amazed that there was so much hidden from us under the grass at the foot of the Tor.
  • I just watched the updated commentary on this episode and now re-watching... So glad I found this on Youtube cause I am making to sure to write down each one I watch, and some of what history the crew shares, for some silly reason, also helps in my own genealogy research...The beginning where all you see is Phil walking in the rain up the path, and then sitting in the tent looking out at the scenery in the rain. was awesome!
  • @chiseldrock
    Phil has the ultimate PHD (Pile it higher and deeper) lol
  • @SkeletonDrums1
    I hope everyone watching this stays as excited, interesting and active as Phil Harding as we slowly grow up! What a bloody legend!
