I grew up in this part of south africa and I would've loved to look for fossils there. Sadly my family are staunch creationists and any fossils I brought home were from the flood, 6000 years ago so I stopped - these days I live very close to Lyme Regis and go find fossils every time there is a storm :)

Loved this episode. It's great to show the realities of field work, and it still remains very informative. While the idea of a sensory organ is intriguing, it doesn't take into account its position above the canines, nor the fold on the tooth itself; I think venom makes far more sense, or at least a digestive enzyme as there are no rear teeth for processing. Also, I think Doug should do his own adaptation of The Four Feathers.

@ 13:09 Famous doesn't begin to describe this guy. He had a very colorful career as a paleontologist, adventurer, spy, and even tried to become king of Albania. I still remember reading about this guy, almost 15 years ago, and thinking "this guy was wild!" He isn't just famous for dinosaurs: guy was a pioneer in Paleobiology as we know it now, and island dwarfism. Illness eventually drove him to commit a murder-suicide in 1933. @17:22 He's reminding me of Nigel Davenport's depiction of George III's madness... Yeah, it's a very niche reference, but trust me, it makes sense.

I like the evidence for Euchambersia being venomous, the grooved teeth and possible glands look similar to the Gila Monster. Not having molars suggests to me a cytotoxin to assist break down possible liquify flesh to aid in digestion. Watching the field work illustrates why all the time devoted to preparation is necessary to figuring fossils out. Do you and Doug do preparation or stick to the field?

Tho that doctors accent is heavy, I’m glad you didn’t subtitle his words. He’s well understandable and I hate when you see some show with someone speaking English and while it’s clear English isn’t their first and only language, they’re perfectly understandable yet still that show will subtitle them and it’s insulting to both parties. To the speaker it’s like “am I that mush-mouthed with my accent” and to the listener, my perspective when I encounter it is “do you really think I’m so stupid I can’t get thru a French or Arabic accent because English is my first and likely only language?” Good job guys. Much appreciated.

I get what you're saying and I didn't have any problem understand what this guy was talking about here, but it's also worth noting that if you are a viewer/lister for whom English is not a first language it can sometimes be difficult to understand because you are not as immersed in the language as a native speaker would be. It depends on the type of accent and how heavy it is though. For example a few months ago in university we had two guest lecturers doing presentations and I had almost no problem with the one guy with hispanic accent but the other had a heavy ukrainian accent and I didn't understand much from what he was saying.
