The first stone henge to be discovered in Britain for a century would be cause enough for major celebration, but there's double bubbles as Tony Robinson and his hardy team of archaeologists celebrate their 200th dig, in the first episode of a new series. The site is the bed of a Devon reservoir with a strange assortment of prehistoric remains.
Series 18, Episode 01

I need to find a man who looks at me the way Phil Harding looks at flint
Hahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Good one
Or just put flint knaps on your clothes and lure Phil himself
I just love Phil's great excitement and joy when he finds a flint tool, he becomes like a little boy ❤❤❤
The puzzle. The pieces. The edges. The middle bits. Then day three fill in the rest. Voila, an amazing neolithic and bronze age story peiced together. An amazing ecclectic collection of knowledge, skills and craftmanship from everyone involved. TimeTeam are always making history by discovering our island's history which is under our feet, and going places no one else has been before. The neolithic and bronze age finds are always so exciting. Gripping stuff. Thank you.
Ian is such a pleasure. He clearly is part of the team. He spots finds and gives and takes jibes with the rest of them. Good on ya, Ian!
While everyone is quaffing champagne Phil's got a glass of beer, good old Phil, a man after my own heart.
Yup im with phil. Not a fan of champagne at all. Pint o' Bods please.
Big fan of the Time Team ....great group dynamics! Feel so much motherly love for adorable Matt!
Apart from the uniqueness of time team series.....it's so mind-blowing how during a period spanning over 4000 years, people who very probably didn't and almost certainly couldnt knew anything about each other, kept choosing the same places as special and unique......in a time, compared to our, with so few people in a world that seems so much larger.....it feels almost counter intuitive to me....... fascinating stuff really
This is one of the episodes that used to be difficult to find on the internet. C4 tried to squeeze the last gram of blood from the Time Team stone by shutting 'pirate' channels down; but C4's own site was unwatchable. So some I could not find some episodes.
The Time live digs, and the first series, are worth fettling and releasing.
I can't believe I've never seen this episode before! The prehistoric ones are my favourites.
Its lovely when you find one you managed to miss isnt it.
Mine too
I love that people of prehistory we're as facinated by came before as we are today.
so nice to hear Phils voice, arguing with John lol
I love it when Francis says "ritual" 😅
Ahhh, yes, I love this episode, watched it many times in the past, and am watching it again!
May I make a suggestion? Please add "Original air dates" to these episodes. Too many people don't bother looking up that information and think this is new. It would help understanding. Thank you!!
Yes, I agree it would help to contextualise the conclusions and speculations.
being introduced by Sir Tony is a pretty big clue it's an old episode
I think "Series 18 Episode 1" is a clue. Especially if you have access to the internets and a search engine.
Lol it could also be derived from the thumbnail TT CLASSICS, think that should be enough🙄🤔🙄
@@katerinakemp5701 no they are reposting old episodes which already have been on this channel. Since most people don't exactly remember things they watched like more as a year ago they might want a pointer so they don't spend 20 mins watching an episode they did already see before.
Francis is so excited brilliant to watch again ☺️
Phil does love his flint.
He was a flint knapper before he become a archaeologist..
Congrats on your 200. Incredible service to society. Never thought i would learn so much about the history and pre-history over 'ome. Thank you.
So happy that Time Team is back
First aired on 6th February 2011 - UK
I've always liked Time Team.
This was my favourite episode. I'm so glad to find it again.
Please consider releasing the soundtrack! I just adore the music from the series 💖

the new ones are awful without the old cast
@@mrkolasa. unfortunately I have to agree, watched one then went back to all the old episodes😢
I've seen this episode two or three times already but that's okay, it's an absolute classic. I don't like the new show but I can't tell you why because I simply don't know why. All they have going for them is a bigger budget and better production values -- but it seems that the old formula is ill replicable. At the end of the day it's all about the personalities and the raw edge of it all, feeling as if it's all bordering on the state of panic as everybody rushes to gather whatever data that they can before the deadline shuts everything up. The new show may have money but they don't have soul.
Isn't that the third time you have uploadet this episode?
I'm sorry to say you need some energy in the new ones. Gus is lovely and all, but he's so relaxed, and because he's already a qualified historian he doesn't ask the questions a layman might. Previously Tony played the part of both presenter AND member of the audience who doesn't necessarily already know everything.
Like kids in a candy store! Haha it’s just the best seeing these guys get so pumped
How sweet his Heart just opens when he sees Flint😂🩷 love this Team...
Congratulations everyone fantastic show, have watched from the beginning xx
One of my favourite digs, thank you for the upload
Absolutely fantastic episode, this one. Thanks ever so much. Gripping stuff.
Currently visible again. I visited yesterday
I think it would have been amusing if someone had rearranged the stones to spell "Help" !
time team 4 life...........love it
This is more entertainment than actually finding something.
An amazing find - a stone circle. You really made up my day.
I've always liked Time Team, especially when doing Aviation Archeology.👍🇺🇸
Such a fantastic episode
Just bought Francis Pryor's book "Home" because I saw him on TT... If its not full of "ritual" I'm gonna go mad!!😄
It's nice to know I'm not the only one who uses 'Death to our enemies' as a toast
brilliant episode
stunning....
Thank you.
Wow. What an amazing find.
If Francis lived 2000 years in future, he'd look at the remains of a shopping kart parking 'house' and say "well tony, I think it's ritual. They probably sacrificed something here to thank the gods for their daily bread."
He is way to romantic about prehistory.
It's fascinating but if you don't accept that you will never know the context because we're so removed from there culture than you will never be right.
I love this 💞😻
great docu
I love how these guys bust balls and find incredible antiquities
the flints could have been washed onto the mound during filling the reservoir.
Were there also circles of wooden post?
yu dooing great work with the peeple I love it 😊😉
Hello to the Time Team Merry Christmas for (2022) and also have a Happy New Year for (2023) I'm watching and also sharing with my eldest daughter to watch aswell we are from Mount Gambier in the State Of South Australian YEAH Mate Bye 🥇🇦🇺🦘⚜️👑⚜️🏴🇬🇧
You again
This is a very important site. Something about it I can't quite figure out, but Phil and Francis are right... and you can clearly see the prehistoric circle.
Prehistoric people would have cultivated the most fertile land first I imagine ? ,near a watercourse or flood plain. From the aerial view I can imagine that stones cleared from cultivated land would very likely end up where they were found and thereafter used as necessary..?
Meanwhile in Torquay, "Water, I must have some water."
I’m fascinated by prehistoric times, awesome 👍🦘
Just the way i like it! Adverts with a side of time team.
More adverts on youtube than on channel 4
Wah…..get an ad blocker.
Laughing that Phil shows up Day 1 with filthy jeans. 😂
matt eats a fly at 41:29
I saw this episode months ago.
Did they consider the possibility that there was a rudimentary dam in the prehistoric period that created these islands?
You can't help but be moved by sites like this.
Awe look at Daddy Phil looking at baby lint. So adorable 🪨
Genuine flint may be from Britain, but your flint looks almost identical to the onandaga chert that is so prevalent in my part of western new York. Even though we call it flint,it is all chalcedony. Phil is quite a competent knapper
Oh man I'd loved to have got there first with my metal detector..
I might have found my keys😂😂😂😊
❤
Phil the Master Knapper
my opinion, what comes from a wet environment to a dry one? a baby,perhaps the idea of a wet walkway to a dry mound could be that of a childs birth
Tony has this heart felt conversation at the end of the show. BUT THE WHOLE TIME THROUGH THE SHOW HE WAS TALKING IN VERY SARCASTIC and negative ways. Their whole way through the show he ignoring Matt and trying to make a date with the new girl. He never said a negative thing in front of her. Our hero is a mule.
Who is the new girl?
You do realise a lot of this is scripted, right?
Reading to much my friend 😊
anyone ever think it was a rudimentary fishing weir??
Okay, so from what I remember from the period, what you have there on the mound is a birthing hut, with birthing always arranged for spring, if possible. Hunter gatherers were not nomadic or peripatetic if they did not need to be. They required a base. So, pregnant women, babies, and small children were all secluded in the birthing hut, with the small children playing in the immediate area until old enough to leave the valley, and the valley itself guarded by youths. And, the birthing hut in a fantastic arcadian location. You have two streams, for drinking, cooking and waste removal, going into a pool filled with fish and fowl. The streams themselves attracted aurochs, etc., especially in the height of summer, as well as wolves. That is good, because you don't want to hunt an auroch miles away and then have to carry it back. You wanted the food to come to you, which it did in this place. There you go.
I love time team but I don't think I'll ever quite understand archaeologists enthusiasm for everything to be religion, ritual and ceremony. The walkway is made of drier ground? is that because (a) their society must have been based around religious ceremonies embodying the concept of ritual movement from wet to dry spaces, or (b) they wanted to be able to walk places without getting wet feet? apparently the answer is always (a) but I don't really see the evidence for it
6 februari 2011 ...
Geophys should have put skis on that machine instead of wheels. Adapt guys.
This is a old episode.
I thought the same thing
The timescale on this site boggles the mind. Imagine having a religious site on a place that people used 3,000-4,000 years earlier. Try to think where there is such a site in your area.
I can't believe nobody seemed to notice the carved face in the stone to the right of the screen at 17.12. If you dowsed the stone circle you would find the exact points where the stones were originally placed.
These old episodes are still more entertaining than the "Blue Peter" style now being shown.
Take a pill
I love the way Tony argues with the experts. 😂
So glad the people of the Bronze Age didn't live long enough to enter our time, imagine going to work one day and just having men in armor waving swords around shouting in Celtic while wearing animal skins on their heads. It would be like living in downtown LA but everywhere.
They certainly never had armour in the bronze age..
faye . . giggiddy
they worshipped flint in pre-historic times. How hard is that to imagine ?
Not hard to imagine at all. Many modern men worship guns !
Hello.. it's me..
oh a double lane. must've been where they had their bowling lane.
Hello? Is it me your looking for?
🍻
13:56 is there any chance that local peoples in the 1860's still practiced rituals that involved this sight? Perhaps they may have been compelled to lay stones over an ancient site that had folklore surrounding it, knowing it would be under water soon. Why else a random stack of contemporary 1860's stones before the dam were placed? I think they should have kept digging! May have been the greatest discovery of the whole sight!
I love the prehistoric, but post because this is a thing. A lake, or reservoir near you will need to be drained, to do maintenance on an outfall. Try to do something, then. For example, go organize a fish adventure. Maybe you are seeing problems with invasive species? Don't save them once the water is drained. Save the native species. Peace.
Flint is almost as good as DNA. ,,, this is not a waste of time. If your a searcher for truth you owe it to yourself to prove your ever summation. I miss Mick and sorry for his passing he brought a special calmness to the show. To me , time team is the only worth while programming.
good morning conan mills
The time team crew certainly knew how to make educational/archaeology programs entertaining and interesting, shame it seems a lost skill/art. I miss these great characters appearances they are so refreshing and relaxing to watch/listen to. Time team did not start on TV until after I was in a career but if it had been earlier, I would have tried archology, and cor all those luverly women.
I'm confused, you post this episode 1, Premiered May 1 2022, when I seen this same episode a few years ago.
And you all seem to be getting younger in age with all these so-called "new" posts.
Hello? Someone there?
Hey time team upload some new episodes.. all these are already uploaded!
Untouched by spade or trowel Naomi offers her trench to Phil.
A zonking great trench.
Tony asks Jackie if it’s okay if he comes and then jumps into her trench.
As Phil stroked the sides of Faye & Helen’s trench with his trusty trowel it began to ooze hot steamy slag.
Far fetched or WHAT ?
What
How's this far fetched?
Thank you.
❤
