Walking The Ancient Road of The Dead With Tony Robinson | Ancient Tracks | Timeline 

I can't believe that so many commenters don't know Tony Robinson! I've watched everything that I could get on RU-vid since he was young Tony. I'm from Las Vegas NV USA, and can only get what is sneaked out. He is amazing. I wish I had stayed as healthy !

Your manner of presentation makes me feel like you're sharing all this wonderful history just for me... very well spoken, God Bless and much love from the Oklahoma Grandma

Hello Tony from the USA! I’m so happy that I discovered you during quarantine. Stay well dear friend.

I love this episode, it's a treat to find there are more Tony Robinson / Time Team -esque programs I hadn't seen. Thanks so much for this upload.

Sir Tony, I've watched you for nearly 30 years and you are as timeless as the Moers themselves. You have given us so much history over the years and I thank you! Keep traveling my friend, keep traveling!

Tony must have the healthiest heart and lungs-he's been walking for years!

It is sad there was insufficient time to spend with all the guests as I was fascinated by their perception and stories. Mr. Robinson is a wonderful presenter thank you.

I love the theme music of this program. Absolutely beautiful.

The story about the bull was EPIC!! Serves him right for destroying history. The Pagans' reverence for the land and nature is lovely. So glad to have historians preserving the monoliths. ❤️

Wish I had known about this path when I visited Buckfast Abbey in 1994. This is fascinating.

Haven’t even finished it and I’m already impressed. The host is perfect! Thanks 👏🏽

Every one in this series is just staggering. So much information but presented so pleasantly, so conversationally, like having a chat. Brilliant!

Thank-you Sir Tony! I've always enjoyed your films but, some how, this one takes the cake!

Just watching this reminds me how much I love Tony. He's such a great presenter.

Awesome documentary, I'd heard about this but didn't have this level of knowledge. Thank you for doing this...

My happy place is watching history videos because it brings everything into perspective. This Timeline channel is fantastic.

Tony Robinson is such a hero. No one person has taught me as much about archeology or made me more interested in archeology, than Tony. As an American living in Upstate New York, documentaries like this make me so endlessly envious of Britons especially, and really just Europeans in general. I mean, all Americans with European ancestry have the same history as Europeans of European ancestry, but people who live in Europe are living _amongst_ it! It's all right there! You can physically access it much more easily. I would die to see these places in person. The place that I live is just so young. All of my country's archaeological history exists in the depth of topsoil you guys remove to start accessing yours! That's just wild.

Every time I watch one of Tony Robinson's presentations I learn something new. He truly is a British treasure. Well Met, Sir!

At home having tea, listening to Mr. T. Robinson as he visits such interesting places with equally intriguing stories as my itching ears, (that is my sons and mine) clamor together to hear more.

I would love to be able to walk where Tony walked.

The opening and closing soundtrack is absolutely gorgeous

Tony Baggins. This one episode is more Tolkien than the entirety of Jackson's Hobbit trilogy. I'd love to see more Timeteam episodes like this one, more of an adventure than an archeological dig.

I am not particularly a Sherlock Holmes fan, but I remember reading The Hound of the Baskervilles at 1:00 in the morning on a hot summer's night when I couldn't sleep. I scared myself pretty bad. Fun to see the Dartmoor looks like in the daylight. And the hound is magnificent!

He is an amazing energetic presenter, but i can't get over the fact he just left that woman speechless when he suddenly walked off 34:08 hilarious!

The place reminds me one of my past life, being a knight died alone in a freezing hill with no help arrive. Good thing, some still preserve, nice place to visit, thanks, good luck to your next journey.

This is amazing and extraordinary, I really enjoyed this. Thank you. ❤

Tony is as energetic as ever

THANK YOU, Mr. Robinson. We loved you as "Blackadder's" Dogsbody Baldrick and we love you still for your intellect, your curiosity and for sharing them with the rest of us. Cheers!

Best BBC host , and a fantastic series

How long does it take to do the entire walk? Do you pass through any villages?

I hope he does Scottish borders soon.

Lych does sound pretty similar to the current Norwegian word for a dead body: "Lik", pronounced like you would say "leek".

Looked up the song Old Lych Way and it's pretty darned good.

Great Show, very amazing Documentary. All Thumbs up👍👍👍Greetings from Germany😎✌

Love this but im getting ads every 5 minutes... quite annoying

What makes moderns rediscover these Ways? Couldn't possibly be the soulless and soul-numbing modern world, could it.

Something I wonder about-that American shows, with our huge budgets and supremely talented production teams have managed to miss so many of the things that British TV does so effortlessly. For example: the Brits don’t seem nearly so obsessed with everything appearing perfect and/or happening exactly as they want it to (unlike in the USA-often fudging the script to fit their narrative). Another is comedic stylings: as one who appreciates comedy of many styles there is one thing that offends me above all else...being treated like an imbecile. American TV feels the need to hit the audience over the head every time they want to “make a funny”-ruining the joke for anyone not named Cleetus. Finally, the presenters... Brit TV is filled with people that wouldn’t survive a minute in the USA’s superficial, looks-obsessed casting: Jeremy Clarkson, James May, our friendly narrator Tony here, Jonathan Ross, etc. (I am not going to act like I know a large amount of names, I am merely making a VERY superficial comment). Either way, keep doing it just the same ya pommies. I am happy to watch your productions, because the CONTENT drives the show instead of making sure only the beauty queen/leading man get on screen; and the laughs come after paying attention to what is happening and not after another idiotic pratfall. Cheers and thanks from a proud yank!

Your druid is both hot and talented on that harp.

This was such an interesting documentary! Thank you for posting this! I really enjoyed it!

There is a special place in heaven for Tony

They took all the ancient places made them their religion Like the druid invention All these is before them

woo how delightful! historical injustice becoming pleasant stories 1000 years later. I would wonder how wonderful this sad world would sound 1000 years later. :P

Perfect escapism. I could watch these all day every day. I wonder what it is, exactly, that I'm escaping from.

i wanna walk there too ..with a horse.

just incredible and extraordinary! Thank you!

In search of the divine...

Outstanding presentation. Thank you Tony!

Tony is definitely very energetic wonder how much he actually walked

Baldrick tho 😤👍

Very much enjoyed the presentation by Tony Robinson, but those pixies... hordes of screaming children... .

Thank you, Sir Tony for yet another captivating and enchanting documentary

Tony you do such wonderful work...!

This was really well done. Brought the history to life for the screen for us. Thank you so much!

Reading the other comments, I seem to be on my own in not being able to abide Tony Robinson. It was the subject matter which enticed me - a place which I thought I knew but apparently do not. Thank you Mr Robinson, your journey was fascinating.

This is a wonderful series; please correct the sound though, I had to keep turning it up and down as his voice faded and came back.

How old is that líquen on the cross, at 37:01?

Cramped full with commercials. Utterly disgusting, beyond bearable. Perhaps it's time to look for an alternative to RU-vid.

I've fallen for the "hound". He's gorgeous.

It's like getting relaxation therapy watching this. Wonderful.

The profound influence of this material is evident. A book I read with similar insights was a transformative adventure. "Temporal Echoes: Amelia's Odyssey Through Ancestral Shadows" by Vivian Rosewood

This series is an absolute treasure ❤

Thank you so much for your wonderful documentaries! I love all of them! Greets from Austria

Would love to roam the moore one day.

A heavy rope is not what you want to measure depths it would coil on the bottom. A light rope heavy weight the rope stops feeding when the weight hits bottom

Holmes is England's greatest FICTIONAL detective. Struggle with paganism? Try a war on paganism by the church. Interesting how pagan beliefs are 'weird', but not Christian beliefs. I love TR, but if he really did all that walking, he'd not have such an unsightly gut. His out-of-breathness is another clue. That smoke machine belies the natural mystery and atmosphere of Dartmoor. And Tone: you really need to revise your idea about 'charming' pixies. They were not.

🤔 Really makes you reconsider your opinions about the outcomes of the second great-war.....

28:28 - Tony relives a Time Team moment. Would not have been surprised to see Phil digging a trench.

I enjoyed the tour and I really liked the folk music and song!

Tony should have been an actor in the Hobbit Movies. Perfect fit.

OH GEEZE HAHAHA I JUST WATCHED BLACKADDER TONY?? NEXT TO MR. BEAN?? AND HUGH LAURIE?? I’M YELLING

"Pixies and prisoners share the pages with standing stones and Sherlock Holmes". Poetic and poignant.

Mr.Tony Robinson is a great historian as always, keep safe and healthy sir

can we get a 10 hour marathon special of Tony playing with dogs??? i feel like thats all i want after seeing him with his "hound of the baskervilles"

I taught in rural Alaska. The native peoples told me some of the things they do to keep save in the wilderness. If you get lost... take your coat off and turn it inside out and you will find your way home. At night never whistle. If you do you will call the northern lights to you, and they will take you away. If the northern lights come for you grab a large stick and start hitting at the lights and they will go away. I thought it was interesting that a native group in Alaska would have the same way to keep safe from a megaevent force and in Brian.

I had no idea Tony was a Sir! He was knighted by Prince William back in 2013!

Micro chips in the stones. ?????? Feed the poor. Wtf? I appreciate archeology but come on . Chips in stones is a bit much

I would have loved to hear more of that historian's song. He has a great voice.

13 commercial breaks, I'm out

I love this. Thank you for making it available.

You had me smiling at "Pixie Day". Thank you. I really needed that!

I can’t believe tony wasn’t like “ shuttup about the stupid song !”

Hi guys these stone markings in rocks are imprints from deterirated items the rock has petrified or melted and fused these imprints. wtach the channel called: wise up. it makes so much more sense than the narrative we have been fed since schooliing.

If they decided to go through all the trouble to wear period clothing they could’ve atleast worn appropriate shoes or not focused in on the guy turning the corner wearing tennis shoes lol.

He is young in terms of his physical condition.

Can someone explain why he’s using miles and not kilometers?

Tony looks sleepier and sleepier in each documentary.

38:00 interesting as there is a town near me called lychfield.

Toney Robinson I do on this day Dub thee Sir Tony Robinson" The tour guid of antiquity "

I'd love to watch this series with Tony Robinson but every episode on this channel has horrible sound. It's a shame.

Every word Tony utters is poetic.

Thank you I throughly enjoyed this video .

Does anyone actually believe that Tony walked the various trails like those on Pilgrimage would have down?

I laughed out loud when the peasants started singing that guy's blues song at the end

I was really born in the wrong country.

43:14 look that bard still has some cocaine left in his mustache and beard

The background music gets a little too loud at times.

Great going Tony but a mite heavy on the damn ads old boy.

Brilliant, thanks for keeping this available.

When is a good time to replant the native trees? How about now?
