The Way We Lived - S0.E50

Tony Robinson and Mick Aston dig out the best bits of over 200 Time Team episodes to tell the story of how our domestic lives have changed over 10 millennia.

Until about 10,000 years ago our ancestors moved from site to site setting up house where they could find food and water. Then everything changed. People realised they could control the land, stay put and build more permanent and more comfortable houses.

Tony and Mick reveal how those very first houses evolved into what we know today, and find out how settling down changed the way we live.
