Tony Robinson and the Team head across the Channel to Jersey to investigate the origins of Mont Orgueil Castle: a fortress that came to symbolise the Channel Islands' bond with Britain. The massive castle that dominates the shore today is a Tudor structure built on earlier foundations, and it's that early castle, built by King John, that the Team are looking for.

This episode was all Stuart. It was great seeing him being the main star of the show. He was able to show that he is so much more than the earthworks guy.

@noizeemama3697 2 года назад

Yes, Stuart is underappreciated. If you watch this series regularly, you see just how much work he puts in and how many things he discovers.

@mjc11a 9 месяцев назад

@noizeemama3697...yes, I quite agree. Stewart strikes me as the quiet professional who diligently goes about his business. So it was great to see him take "center stage."

The only TV serie that actually makes sense. It's highly entertaining, it has lots of humour, it's almost always positive, it's a gift shop of knowledge on all sorts....just absolutely wonderful. Some of the big iconic pillars of the series are truly missed....but I'm really glad the series tried to keep going....for the love of history and in honour of the ones no longer with them.

Rumors of cake ! Best line in the show.

@51WCDodge Год назад

Non! the best thing is not the cake ! It is the Cabbage Bread! The Island is home to a form of cabbage that grows on a straight stalk up to about fourteen feet tall. The stalks were used to make walking sticks. The large leaves are wrapped around the bread before baking. The result is a soft moist loaf, ideal to be ripped (NEVER cut) slopped with Jersey Butter and served with fish, crab , lobster or shell fish taken straight from the bay. Or Served with Black Butter. Take about two hundredweight of apples , ten gallons of Cider, liquorce and spices. Crush apples to pulp, ad cider. Place mix in a large copper and boil for about 72 hours, stirring continuosly, and I mean continuosly! The result is crystaline black sweet paste, true Jerriais.

I wish we had a "Time Team" in Germany. Just think about all the stuff they could find here. Old Germanic tribes, Romas in the west, approximately 3000 castles (from ruins to still-in-use ones), lots and lots of medieval history with ~300 tiny "states/countries", two world wars, and the separation into two countries until very recently. But German bureaucracy would probably make it hell to produce a show like that^^'

@barbarossarotbart 5 месяцев назад

I agree. Germany needs something like Time Team on TV. It would fit right into the whole Terra X franchise. But sadly it won't happen , not only because of the bureau cracy but also because German archaeologists might not take the format seriously. Even a single episode of Time Team in Germany would be fantastic.

@davidwright7193 2 года назад

They did do some underwater archeology but it is very limited. Phil and Tony have diving certification but not most of the team and in 3 days you can often be limited to three tides and as little as 3 to 5 hours work over the weekend and that might be enough to map out a sites features rather than actually find anything.

Digging the trench up that hill and geophysics is challenging. I wonder what the worst dig regarding landscape is . As my dad is a professional landscaper it has always been the elements , the soil as you can dig into clay and flint which I have seen diggers struggle with . It would be interesting to get a digging drone like nasa for there Mars mission . Digging up the hill is crazy.

@51WCDodge Год назад

Mont Orgueil, The Proud Mount. The top towers are dated to the 1940's. during the Occupation of the Island in WW2, fortifications were built by slave and forced labour. Hitler had the idea that post war his Victory, would leave the Island's as a Strength through Joy holiday resort. As a result the range towers built of re-enforced concrete would be a distraction, so a lot of time effort and skill was put into cladding the towers with local granite. This is not the only example of such work on German Atlantic Wall fortifications. Just below the castle on Gorey pier is a cottage, the ground floor of which was re-enforced as a disguised gun battery. And of course, there are the ghost stories. The one I like concerns the ground keepers cottage , just out side the main gate. Behind it is a section of wall with battlements and walkways, but no access. For many years the family that lived there had a daughter, who described as simple. Her bedroom was just under the lee of the wall, and she constantly complained of being awoken by footsteps outside her window. With the passage of time a new groundsman took over. He and his family had friends from the Mainland visiting them. The guests stayed in the daughters old room. The following morning he asked his guests if they had slept well? The reply ' Yes, but who was that walking about outside early in the morning?

Dear Amerikano, that's a crocodile, not an alligator. (Alligators have rounded snouts). We all can make mistakes, it's when our actions cause damage to others that it gets problematic. Some people don't seem to think of how their behavior can hurt others, and when they find out, they don't seem too concerned about it. That poor lady who couldn't pay her rent, or the nice gentleman who made that beautiful "Leaning tower of Pisa", for instance. I think precious items, such as priceless paintings, special exhibits, etc., ought to be protected by strong glass, just like the commentator above has already suggested. Here's to good health, love and consideration. Best regards from California.
