My husband turned me on to time team a few years ago, probably during COVID. We watch at least one episode every day. It doesn’t matter how many times I watched an episode, I enjoy it as much every time. So sad when heard of Mic’s passing, such a wonderful human being ❤
Where I grew up there was Jonny Wullen from Wullen avenue, Garry Price from Price lane and one more I cant remember. They had lived there for so many generations no one knew if the families had given rise to the street names of the streets have given them the family names. But these families had lived there for several hundred years
Very enjoyable and satisfying episode. I didn't think Carenza looked angry early on, as much as impatient to get going. Such a beautiful area and beautiful garden to work in! And I heard wrens singing in the background!
I love the rivalry between John and Stewart! Though I must say, I think I've seen Stewart correct more times than John, at least up to this point in the program. I don't know how the geo-phys results can be so very off sometimes. I've seen it pick up very distinct features that are simply not there at all, and I've seen it completely miss very distinct features that are right there in the ground. It's absolutely amazing how much Stewart can usually discern and predict, just from having a look over the landscape.
John and Stewart are both wizards. John rubs his magic lamps. Stewart walks off into the woods and consults elves. The elves have a higher batting average.
Geophysics relies on the difference in ground composition. One of the elements to that is water. If a dry gravel bed is in a clay bed it will give a signal. And if a porous rock is water logged in a wet clay bed they'll see no contrast. Igneous rock by its very formation and composition would give a magnetic signal. The technology has moved a long way but it's far from perfect. But imagine how many things would have been missed without this technology. And now we have Lidar which is turning up a whole host of new archeological sites. Especially in dense jungle areas, like the Amazon.
I feel the same about Dr. Jenni Butterworth... There's been a few episodes without Carenza, as well... I felt kind of lost and wandering while watching those...
What I want to know is given how rare and important this site is was it scheduled by English heritage to protect it? Because as technology moves on our plows will just dig deeper and deeper into the soil. Not to mention it would protect that field from further development.
In constructing their bloomery out of bricks instead of clay, why didn't they make it square instead of round, with just a thin skin of clay acting as mortar? It would have dried much faster than trying to fill clay into the great big gaps left by a circular brick structure.
Does anybody else get annoyed that they take time and manpower away from the intended project to do the model builds and reenactments? I want them to just stick to the project while their time is so short anyway. We get the idea from the drawings and computer animations. We don't need Phil to build to a whole new demo furnace. He needs to keep digging.
@@philaypeephilippotter6532 I find that the experiments make me appreciate my ancestors more and more. They were much more inventive, able, and clever than I imagined, and life could not have been easy back then.
I get the feeling that Carenza was rather annoyed throughout part of this episode. She felt they should have continued excavating at Furnace Cottage however Mick and John elected to dig at another site; a site she opposed. Tony's piece-to-camera at the end seemed to hint that everyone had kissed and made up, but Carenza's body language indicated that she still wasn't all that happy.
+Robert Braiden Actually, it doesn't mean she was grumpy at all, in fact the opposite. If you see the metals expert has his arms crossed and when he says the site was good for iron working throughout history, Carenza is actually in agreement with him and adopts his body language. Then if you look carefully behind Tony, as soon as the home owner turns to talk with both of them, they form a tight group and he too folds his arms. They are mimicking each other's body language because they are in accord, not in anger or annoyed.

I could listen to Tony all day long......oh wait, I have...thanks Reijer
so much information from a little piece of clay pottery. amazes me every time.
I love how the sun shines through Mick's hair...like a halo!
Thank you Reijer Zaaijer for all of Time team I enjoy watching them in the USA!
I love these homeowners who invite the team in to make a mess of their back yards!
Sacrifice in the name of knowledge...
Must be cool to talk to Baldrick over a pint though. For an anecdote or two...sure, go dig up whatever you want.
Absolutely this program was one of the most interesting to me. Thank you to all who were involved.
This was possibly the most beautiful location TT ever dug in. Who cares whether they found anything, just look.
The spaniel is a bit cheesed off. “How come I met a whack when I dig in the flower beds, and when humans do it, my master just encourages them?”
What a gorgeous house. ♥
I just find it amazing that families in Britain have lived in the same location for generations.

The answer is contentment and family important.
I just came across Time Team documentaries a few days ago. I love watching them!!
Great to binge on during quarantine!!!

Beautiful countryside !!💞💞💞
Beautiful country!
Thank you Reijer Zaaijer for recording all the TT episodes. We can watch it only on RUclips in Hungary.
Aren't the dvd sets available?
I can probably order them from the UK if I had the money.
@@csottohal available on amazon in higher resolution.
Twenty seasons of TT on dvd=very big bucks in any country.

schradeya Geo-phys works based on density and magnetism. Dense dirt is still dirt, and if there is magnetic particulate, it'll look like metal.

@@rodritchison1995 Exactly.

"John, that was the longest gloat I've ever heard."
Excellent series.
I don't think I've heard the word slag so much since Absolutely Fabulous.
lmao
I knew a Bloomsbury slag but they ran her out and she had to move south of the river.
You slag!! 😂
The back garden is here:
52.98913°N 1.939713°W
I recommend turning the map 90º to get the valley view that Stewart shows on the map at 39:05
Stannous Flouride thanks for posting the coordinates!
Phil even more on point than usual.
Cottage , looks like a Mansion
Thanks for posting
35:57 Whenever I see Phil squinting to protect his 'trench eye' I wish he had gone full pirate and worn an eye patch.
lol they must all have awesome friendships!
Three days without Dr. Alice Roberts is like three days without sunshine in Staffordshire.
I feel the same about Dr. Jenni Butterworth... There's been a few episodes without Carenza, as well... I felt kind of lost and wandering while watching those...
Personally, my favourite TimeTeam Geake has always been Helen ...
You have Briget? is it me or does she looks slimmer?
Beautiful place.
Thnx for uploading!
What a glorious place to live.
I only just this past month discovered time team..HOW?!?!
It is the best show ever!!
the scenery is beautiful,hard to imagine that it would look so different ,because of the ironworks,a few hundred years ago.
Guest appearance by Robin Williams as Jerry the metals expert.
Phil Harding for PM!
We need a world wide political do over, people like Phil are exactly the kind I'd want in any office.
Woo! Stewart gave John a burn at around 9:10 with that comment about "two ways to practice archaeology" 😆
OSHA would not be happy about that excavation being so deep.
It didn't take them long to realize they were wasting valuable show sitting around the breakfast table like season 1.
Thanks.
This is more interesting than Brexit !!

"No, presumably when last used they took out the bloom and used it."
Yeah, Mick, what a dumb question.
Oh Gawd....another bloody furnace episode.....:) Still, at least there's lots of slag.
This is one I haven't seen.
WOW- @ 22:28...Bridget cut quite the profile in her day. Lovely. Many thanks Reijer Zaaijer for uploading. You're a legend!
They always spread themselves thin on day 2. Why is Carenza surprised?
First aired February 15, 2004.
What happened to across the street?
When did Robin pass?
Robin Bush died on 22 June 2010 after a long period of illness. He is buried in the cemetery of St Nicholas's Church, Corfe, in Somerset.
than the place name "bloomington" might indicate an iron furness?
...or a town with alot of flowers
is it just me, or, do the fellas "talk" about work , and, the gals do the digging?
Just you
In constructing their bloomery out of bricks instead of clay, why didn't they make it square instead of round, with just a thin skin of clay acting as mortar? It would have dried much faster than trying to fill clay into the great big gaps left by a circular brick structure.
Carenza say “great white hope” at around 30:00 ?? 😆😆 bet time team classics wont upload this one without some editing
Don’t be silly.
We couldn't find one.. so we built one.
Oh. Good job they weren't looking for a pyramid....
The team is so much grander when Carenza is in attendance.
My next wife will be an archaeologist, they are hard working chicks
Hi.
Sounds like they punted on the cottage furnace. They just made it up to make the guy happy.
I wish people would stop throwing around words like "revolutionary".
Carenza knows she's beautiful
Well, I got through 43 minutes before I gave up on any interest in iron furnaces and slag.
Carenza rocking that strap top and shorts. Her hottest look so far….
Explain to me why some people call women slags again? I don't see the connection
Something discarded & unwanted, like most modern "slags" are.
Dirty and used.
id think it's obvious no?

I forward through the reenactments myself.
@@juliechi6166 This kind of _experimental archæology_ is of great value - as a bonus most people find it as entertaining as you do!

... The *actual* bloomin' slag was off in the *other* trench, running on, and *on*... 41:05 ...

when will men learn to follow a womans intuition,her arms crossed was a dead give away,im sure she was upset knowing she was right
She seemed very annoyed
Funny that Carenza had her arms folded in within the first 3 minutes of this episode. Was she upset at that time too?

+Fedra Haldane --Sometimes people who are not holding something cross their arms because it is more comfortable than letting them hang.
It's nice not to have Romans in this episode.
I prefer Romans!
Well, Romans were here a long time.
