- For their final high-speed archaeological adventure of the series. Time Team find themselves inside a partially abandoned army barracks in Nethcravon in Wiltshire. It's not military memorabilia they're after but something much older and more interesting.
In 1907, a Colonel Hawley discovered part of a tessellated pavement - or mosaic - in the grounds which he believed was part of a Roman villa, built around AD 300.
Now for the first time the army have allowed archaeologists inside the barbed wire to check out the colonel's theory. They have only a few short months before the troops return and the site is once again off-limits to civilians. Tony Robinson, Mick Aston and the Time Team however, have just three short days!

Mick zooming around on that wheelchair is priceless!
40:25 with the drums accompanying him - I can't help but think that scene would fit perfectly in Dr. Strangelove!
+MrAlumni72
You're right.
+Michelle Twidwell
And funny as well,if you ask me.
+Michelle Twidwell The big L on the back is what they put on the back of Learning Driver's cars in the UK.
Stannous Flouride That's hilarious! I wondered what that was for!
Picked up a Tolkien bestiary the other day and saw Victor was an illustrator..I thought cool Time Team Victor. Of course I think the book was from the 70s before TT but I would never recognized the name without TT.
Time Team: one of my favorite shows ever. Tolkien: my absolute favorite author ever. ^-^
I have the same one, had it for years, and never looked at the list of illustrators. Going through it now, I can see some illustrations which I (think I) recognize as Victor's style. Slightly belated, but thanks for noticing that connection.
He also provided the illustrations for. James Herriot book I read a few years ago.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 I totally agree with you. Love time team. Tolkien is my favorite author.
In my opinion, The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings is the greatest story ever told. RIP J.R.R Tolkien. RIP Victor Ambrose. And thank you for educating me on Victor's contribution to the book. ✌️😁
watching mick running around in his chair is hilarious
I know it's a few episodes back the the Mosaic Tiles the mentioned reminded me. Someone had asked what Time Team would have been in Latin for their little mosaic they had done for the Lost Villa in the field. Well I did a little Digging (Pun intended) and it's most appropriate to use a synonym for Team. In this Case Collaboration is the most appropriate so if they were to Write "Time Team" In Latin it would have Read "Tempus Collaborare" Though I don't Doubt Robin figured that out ages ago. Heck these early episodes were aired most likely before I was even born, or just after since I'm a 1994 baby
Personally I believe that limiting them to the 3 day restriction is a waste of time.
It's just because we want to see more 😊
All they need is one of bureaucrats from the Historic Society to come by and schedule the space and give the Army a bill as they do private citizens, and the digs will have to continue. Oh wait...that's one department of the Government stopping another...
i didn't know that mick had brocken his leg
It shows up in another episode as well
Tony said it happened A week before they filmed ep 4 in Govan, Glasgow.
The map has ROMAN VILLA (SITE OF) right on it. Why weren't the digging there to begin with?
So, did your army ever go back to finish the digs? What became of it? Was it indeed re-used by your army?
I thought the guy with the cap and tight jeans was John Gater having a bad wardrobe day!
To be fair, in the earlier series EVERYONE had some questionable fashion choices...
I was also wondering about the skinny jeans......
Never understood the 3 day limit. Seems like self imposed chains
Most of the team have regular jobs during the week.
I didn't like it at first, but I realize it made the series and its long run with so many episodes possible. I like the idea that they generated so many projects for other, local archaeologists to pursue further. In terms of the show, the tight timeframe adds drama at times (including the risk of finding naught) and focuses their attention on a key question or two, but now and then they are stymied. Not as much as I would have thought, though!
Most of them had real jobs( like college professors). Time Team was just their weekend gig.
Fast forward to the last season of TT and it's only Phil and Tony left of the guys in this episode, all the men were axed by the girl power movement, or, in Mick's case, fed up and quit. Too bad, the girls ran the show into the trash can and it cancelled.
Oh, poor baby. You feel it? You're a churl beaten by a girl? The violins are sobbing. Not all that loud, okay, but we weep for you.
You sound like a particularly bitter and twisted misogynist. Not getting any?
Just to see Mick ride around in his wheelchair and Phill in an apron cooking, this episode is worth it.
The drum cadence playing during Mick's wheelchair zooming around is great fun. 🙂
I think it's refreshing they air episodes no matter the end result. By refreshing, I mean it's good to see humility in broadcast programming, rather than attempting to outdo what has already been done. Twenty years is a good run for any program, good for them. Maybe it'll be resurrected and refurbished in another twenty.
Unlike that damn "curse of oak island"
7 years later and they finally are…
Yes, there is so very much to like about these shows!❤️
A corrugated roof - what an indignity!!
It wasn't just 'refreshing'. Their goal was to present true archaeology. To do that, they had to be completely honest. Sometimes they found a mother-lode of artifacts; sometimes they found the proof they needed literally at the last minute. Several times, they had nothing to show for their efforts, and they made no bones about saying so. One of the most intriguing and (in a way) heartbreaking episodes was the dig done at Llygadwy in Wales. So many great finds,, but they were all out of context, so they were worthless.
I love the "learners plate" on Mick's wheelchair. It sure seems like it must have been fun, along with hard work, being on these sites with this group. Peace.
I'll miss Time Team, but oh my gosh laughed out loud when the music started playing under the wheelchair ride and I saw the Learners Permit L on the T shirt.
really enjoy the fact that all of these episodes are available, most so that we all may continue to enjoy the people that are not with us anymore, so they may be remembered.
we want a shrubbery, not too expensive or too big, or else...
what?
we say Ni!
Isn't it amazing how Victor Ambrose could start drawing a rendition of the type of villa expected to be found during the excavation - even before one hole was even dug ! Not only his extraordinary artistic talent must be highly praised but also his deep knowledge of historical architecture through the ages. He is literally an all round talent and his final reconstructions of the sites are a wonder to see ! 😘
Because he knew ahead of time where they were going and what they were likely to find. This is explained many times-dude copied out of textbooks ffs.
The dog is just precious! She's never far from her master!
The dog adds even a bit more color to the show - they should have kept him around. :)
Tess, so probably she, is adorable. And looks very happy indeed.
At first I read that as: _"The dog adds even a bit more collar to the show"._
"Never work with children or animals." ~W.C. Fields
Dog stole every scene she was in! Had to rewatch to follow the conversation.
40:14 I just couldn't help myself but laugh at the music and Mick's wheelchair attack! :)))
Perfection, lols.
Yes Victor is amazing. Love his drawings
Mick with his motorized jousting horse lol
Oh dear ... between stuffing your dates and dipping your oyster shell into whatever you fancy, my imagination took on a life of its own 😳😂
Just once I wanted to Tony to say, "This time we have three weeks."
Seeing all those fresh-faced youths looking all earnest... Made my day!
Robin was never really adequately replaced.
Sam Newton was (is) great on Saxon stuff and Guy on Roman, but they are still missing someone pouring over medieval documents in libraries.
Helen sometimes has a go, and although she knows a lot about just about everything it's obviously not her specialty.
Phil: *We've got a lot of pot*
Me: *YOU HAVE MY ATTENTION*
Great to have access to all these time teams but please try and get sound and vision synced. P.S. Sue Francis is just so gorgeous!
lol... takes 20 sec for Stewart to neutralize the razor wire... anyone surprised?
@alanrtment porter I resent that my father was in the Pioneer core and went into France and Belgium during the first days after D Day if it wasn't for these guys the Army would not have got far off the beaches. He was far from dim.
I loved him mumbling something to himself as he nutrulized that dangerous situation...lol
Stewart is a beast.
Love love love seeing Phil’s hair held back. Looks handsome that way vs straggly hairs in his face.
At that age Phil was handsome no matter how he wore his hair.
Tony's hair looks really great in this episode but no matter which season I watch, Tony's age isn't obvious.
His hair is dyed.
28:30 Carenza gives Mick the death glare, "Tell me I'm being overly optimistic on television and minimize my opinions?! I'll break your other leg old man!"
She's always struck me as a piece of work, like with the passive-aggressive comments she made to Mick as well. Lol
+Marie Carie I'm so glad it's not just me! I agree .. . .she makes me cringe a lot of the time.
+Sleeper Awake I'm not sure this small grouping here (Marie, Annette) understand that most of these folks are experienced professionals in their own right. How they work together at all is a miracle. I have noticed that females on the show are often a bit marginalized and Carenza may show her frustration at times. See if you notice the changes in how sex is portrayed in later episodes before Mick quit the show (rest his soul).
+MrTeneric I'm not debating that doing that many shows together and still being civil to each other is indeed a miracle. :) What I love about the show is that they leave those human parts in . . .folks get frustrated, there are times of short tempers. And of course they are all professionals at the top of their field. It's just that sometimes certain people aren't my cup of tea. And sometimes we comment . . . and sometimes those comments might be best left in our heads instead of publicly stated. Thank you for your support and reply. Not everyone would take the time to write such a thoughtful and diplomatic comment.
An thank you. I had written a long response which my machine has thoughtfully erased.
It's here on Google maps/Earth:

Its fascinating to learn that the Romans might have invented central heating, unless they found a previous civilization that used it, but it's still fascinating to learn that our central heating tech of today is over 2000 years old.
Probably evolution of ideas from others and conquered lands, plus improving it😊
So if Duncan's dog stopped to pee on a bit of Roman floor, would that turn it into a Tess-ellated pavement?
Technically NO...as Roman flooring was heated from the underside and not the top!
If the dog became happy as a result, would it be a Tess-elated pavement?
@@ian_b ;-)
@@WashuHakubi4 ;-)
Also interesting to see some of the team/extended team so much younger (like Mark)
Was great to see Mick in a motorized wheelchair zipping here and there all over the place, making him feel more involved in things and than sitting in the truck, so out of the way form the happenings. First time ever that I have seen with his long hair actually tied back. Shame that, once again, as usual, on day three they finally find more of what they have been chasing for the last two days and then have to stop it all and move on. Would of been great to at some point come back to this and knowing now where this roman villa is, to dig up the rest of it.
(8:28)..."What is it that you want......We want.......A shrubbery and firstly you must find ..another shrubbery"
Phil had his hair tied back. Doesn't look like a wild man.
Phil's clothes and hair are a constant fascination for the viewers. I hope he knows he's a fashion icon lol
57WillysCJ I was startled by that as well. He never did that!
It's weird he's not wearing his hat
@Angry Hippo he plays finger picking guitar. The nails are necessary.
@Angry Hippo his nails may be long, but they are always neat and trimmed, and never grimy.
I have a question, I hope Phil will answer for me. In a number of episodes you all speak of an " Aps" (I hope I spell it right). Phil, could you explain to me what an "Aps" is? I'm from The Netherlands, my English is pretty decent, but this one is a mystery for me! Thank you upfront for the answer!
Phil in short-shorts!
And a ponytail!!
@@meemurthelemur4811 with corkscrew locks at the end. Gorgeous!!
When you have great legs why not flaunt them? Phil at that age was drop dead gorgeous.
It would be so easy to make a new series because they could just go back to the same sites -- in most cases little to no new work has been done on them during the last quarter century.
@Angry Hippo why? Most people now are watching on amazon prime, hd and audio syncs with video.
Typical military!! Move in, wreck an area.... move out....... they really should be made to clear up all their crap!!
There is a flip side to that though. The MOD own very substantial amounts of real estate in the UK (training grounds etc.) and much of it actually preserves ancient scrubland and woodlands that have remained untouched for centuries. Many of those sites have become areas of great importance in terms of the plants and wildlife that flourish within them.

Like the Romans?
Must have been a great summer ... they're all so tan.
An dry
If ever the chance to chat with Tony, I'd ask where his special enthusiasm for roman stuff came from (as TT un/covers so many other and at least as much interesting periods)
Thanks for posting.
Love that sweet dog!
40:11 Lets fracking go chaps. Greetings from Denmark
And the learner "L" on his back xD
Especially with that serious drumming music! Lol! I loved him!
Near the row of shrubbery, formally owned by Knights..Who say NEIGH...lol
Is razor wire British for barbed wire or are they two different things 🤔
Barbed wire is a round wire with pointed knots. Razor wire is more a flat metal tape with bow tie shaped razors.
Barbed is for livestock. Razor is for prisons.
@@itzel1735 Appreciate the education
Two different things
I forget how high latitude England is. It's 9pm in the summer and it looks like they have a good 60-90m of daylight left
I was there the end of May and it got dark 10:30-11pm and started getting light about 2:30-3am.
Yay fortimeteam
I bet Robin has stuffed his date many a time. 30:25
I caught that, too lol
His reply was hilarious.
I agree that the integrity of the series is really shown off with an episode like this. They didn't keep going past the three days in order to have more to show. Actually this whole season was fairly disappointing in terms of "results" (only two of the six episodes had them finding what they set out to find) and it's a little surprising that viewership wasn't affected by that.
From what I gather, people come for the results and they stay for the people, 'results' be damned. It's put an awful lot of us back in touch with humanity, others' as well as our own (see the other military dig where wounded and ptsd'd soldiers actually worked on the dig).
@@cathjj840 I watch because of the integrity and the feeling of joy in either other's friendship.
What are they eating? Damn it, now I'm hungry!😬
Good old doggo .🐶
Umm, what about a trench were the map says, "Roman Villa - site of"? If it`s an army map it is likely to be ACCURATE surely?
Bikini Alert! 17:19
At least you didn't use, "whack the pinata"
Roman food did not include three of the main items on so many menus today--potatoes, tomatoes, and corn [maize].
No shit, Sherlock.
Corn isn’t fit for human or animal consumption. Neither creature is built to digest the foul stuff.
15:00 new age jousting. 👍🏻
so were there any new excavations in the last 15 years? I lokked on the satellite images and much of the land is still abandoned but in a corner some houses where built.
Where is season 5?
Adorable flat-coated retriever. I have one that looks exactly like him
The small glimpses of the computer screen over the first few series makes me wonder if they are running a color version of GEM. That is, of course, assuming they are using Intel based machines and not some workstation by DEC, HP, or Sun.
Soldiers in the wood, Yes Hmm.
First appearance of Mark Corney?
roman central heating was better then what we have today
at the end of this when phil and carenza are in the trench why is phil terrified to even look at her?
Phil is many things but stupid is not one of them. He probably wanted to get out of the trench alive and intact.
The dreaded V word... here we go again...
The Asians had the same kind of under-floor heating.
We all know that. No one cares.
Interesting. What time frame?
24:35 epic muttonstache is epic!
What terrible affliction has Prof Mick contracted, !!, it's not fair.
You mean besides death?
@@dgpatter No, smartass, I believe he meant is leg.
lol at marks hair
What does Stuart's title, RCHME stand for
Larry Olimb Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England
Royal Commission on Historical Monuments of England
Was here 2019
Had there been any more archaeology digs done by then and what's on the site now?
Poor Stewart, Carenza has been cutting him off in mid-sentence since Episode 4. he had the patience of a saint. Rather ironic, with him being right ninety percent of the time.
I have been watching awhile. Tony's hair goes from black shoulder length to gray not much there. Phil's hair goes gray and Mick's just lessens. Carennza's stays the same and she looked the same.
Miss Sue in the later shows,she was a looker !
And, of course, that’s all that mattered about her. Her training, expertise and profession meant nothing.
Why just 3 days?
I think this was a weekend extra they did, aside from their day to day jobs... correct me if I'm wrong
That wasn't why they had three days. It was a deliberate decision. There is an episode in which Mick explains it, and how you *can* do investigative archaeology in three days ( I've just seen it but i can't remember which one it is!)
. Their aim was never to dig everything up. It was to get in there, investigate, map out the site and see what was there. All that information of course is carefully recorded and there for any future digs to refer to. So this was the remit of the programme: 3 days. That's how you make an interesting TV series; otherwise you'd have a programme that spent weeks and weeks on the same dig: it wouldn't work.
It was also probably down to budgets and the need to schedule the manufacture of TV programmes. Time Team was a very expensive programme to make - the wage bill alone must have been eye-watering - and you'd double that quite quickly by making it a week e.g. TV advertising revenue, plus money from selling the show to overseas networks and merchandising (books accompanying the series etc.), had to pay for everything and leave a profit after - business is business.
@@MindPalaceASMR you are correct. They all had jobs during the week.
Phil you look better with hair in ponytail.
He reads all the comments so he’ll be glad to hear it
No, he doesn't. Don't believe them, Phil.
What’s with all the men’s long fingernails? Eeewww!
When you play a musical instrument, like a Guitar, you use those long fingernails in place of Guitar picks. It is normal.
Aimee Brass sorry I find it repulsive, and vastly unsanitary!
@@jennifersimmons1552 I find your complete massacre of grammar disgusting. Do you care?
@@jennifersimmons1552 if you cared to look, you would see that Phils nails may be long, but they are always neat and trimmed. It really is no ones business how people chose to keep themselves.
But you don’t say the same about long fingernails on women, do you? Why?
