A real educational series for all ages and if you like this check out the prequel "Tales from the Green Valley" (Tudor Times) and the various squeals starting with "Edwardian Farm".
Fantastic cinematography and score it leaves you wanting to experience the time itself although leaves you under no illusions as how challenging these times were and how essential it was that every resource was utilised. Ruth, Alex and Peter take us on their journey in at 19th century farm from hay-making, brewing cider and ale, ploughing, planting, laundry even toilet requirements. Afterwards we worked together as archaeologists in. The series itself is a wonderful journey into a time of change and invention. BBC Two Documentary History Presenters Comments I have been friends with my Tudor Monastery Farm co-presenter Peter Ginn since university. I have been a big fan of Peter Ginn ever since I watched the first episode of Victorian Farm, where he portrayed a Victorian-era farmer in England alongside.

It’s Peter Ginn, presenter of Edwardian Farm successor to the documentary series Victorian Farm and walking embodiment of the collision between old and new that the programme represents. Whether you decide to try to make your own forge in the garden, carve a wooden spoon, build a dry-stone wall, or process your own salt, you will be reconnecting with your own practical abilities and creative impulses.As both an animal lover and vegetarian I'd like to disassociate myself with another review on here claiming this series is "not for those who care about animals" I feel fortunate enough to live in a time that affords me a choice weather to eat meat or not.irrespective of when the "vegetarian society" was formed. Go camping in the wild, build a shelter, catch fish without a rod, and teach your kids how to knap flint.
