Not sure if anyone else here has an interest in Archeology or enjoyed the
old 'Time Team' series, but I'm mention this for two reasons.

1) In case others are interested and this is welcome info for them

2)...

Recent page update on wikpedia about TT has pointed to some 'new' episodes'
which are on YouTube.

(includes some 'annoucements' about the project).

However the pages I've found also mention 24 'classic' old episodes said to
be freely available via YT. The RO snag being that when I try to use either
NetSurf or Iris to look for these I can't get anywhere. (Possibly because
I'm rejecting any cookies in Iris' case on YT. Other pages just direct to
YT or 'Patreon'.)

So, anyone know the actual URLs for these 'classic' episodes, or if I can
find them with Iris whilst refusing cookies? I can probably bypass this
using FF on Linux, but would be good to get the above to work, simply to
get the URLs of the videos.

Ta,

Jim

As far as I am aware it is virtually impossible to watch Youtube, or use
any other Google service, without accepting cookies. I use a "private
window" in FF and make sure my VPN is active.

Well really!
No idea how things don't work in Linux, but in MS-Windows...

After you've watched the YouTube episode in FF and before you close out
that YT window, click the padlock icon on the URL bar (Lh end) and in the
dropdown menu select, "Clear cookies and site data"

Clears cookies etc for that site.

It is easy eough to fetch copies of YT videos once you know their URL. The
snag is when you can't find the URL without going into the YT site - which
means accepting at least some of their cookies/tracking attempts.

When needed, I just delete all the cookies the site dumped into my browser
once I've accessed what I wanted. Do that by direct editing of the
location(s) where they are stored on my machine.

You can get them via torrent site tvchaosuk.com if you can get in (if
open registration is on). If not, I have 20 series worth so I can
probably find some way to let you have them. Contact me privately and
we'll see what we can do.
