"Oh, The grand old Duke of York, He had ten thousand men; He marched them up to the top of the hill, And he marched them down again." I think this is why a participant on an English TV series such as Time Commanders would perceive a Hill as valuable. This Nursery rhyme is so ingrained in our culture that children will hear it in our school system, almost devoid of all context except for a 'Horrible Histories' type of caricature I.e Redcoats and wigs. Kids will also play games where a hill is an important part of play.
