  I love the palaeontlogy that was sneaked in here! As an archaeologist, you often get asked if you dig up dinosaurs and you always have to say no, so I loved seeing this!

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P4c6IvXisU&amp;t=1972">32:52</a> Love Onyeka Nubia&apos;s comment that &quot;we speak about (British) history with a series of sentences and fullstops. &nbsp;But it is not like that. &nbsp;It is a series of commas, half-sentences and question marks.&quot; &nbsp;<br><br>History, despite all the exact dates, is linear. &nbsp;Time periods overlap so (to use the period they&apos;re talking about), just because the Roman garrisons leave Britain, their culture, their tools and techniques will still be there until gradually supplanted by the Anglo-Saxons.

  I say, what an absolutely fascinating, interesting and utterly worthwhile episode to have been uploaded - and which I don`t believe I have seen before :)<br>There are so many superlatives I could attach to this ongoing series, which continues to develop and educate, across such a varied and wide ranging understanding and appreciation of our ancient past in all it`s complexity, with unexpected discoveries which often challenge previously held opinions and academic certainties.<br>Prof. Roberts continuous to be the perfect foil to introduce and connect the historic elements for a hugely &nbsp;intellectually satisfying and memorable series :)

  Just one comment from me. &nbsp;I’ve watched a number of these vids with Prof. Roberts now, and kudos to the director. &nbsp; Well staged story telling. &nbsp;Kudos to Prof Roberts and her fellow Ph.D.s to teach us the history. &nbsp;I truly appreciate the science and engineering. &nbsp;While I’m a “Yank”, Britain’s history is my history as well.

  Amazing finds, amazing video! &nbsp;And Thanks to honest people that saw something and reported it to the proper authorities. &nbsp;I shudder to think what is found and not reported because the builders, or construction people want to get the job done fast.
