Knowing how many shows ruth and the boys went on to do, its really endearing to see this.

Indeed a wild boar is ferocious,and was considered the most dangerous game to hunt.They are reknowned for their courage and will run right up the spear they're impaled upon,to savage the rider.Amongst other Medieval notables,Richard III chose the White Boar or Blanc Sanglier as his personal badge,implying his bravery on the field of battle.Amazing series,thanks so much for sharing!

I really enjoy these shows....if you love history this series of shows is a wonderful trip to the past.

I'm American and lived in the U.K. from '79-'83, and documentaries on the BBC were the best! I don't even watch documentaries made by American T.V. cause they just don't put in the detail like the Brits do. This show wouldn't even be put on television here in the U.S. This is great stuff.

I live for these things. Awesome video.

I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this by chance! I can't get enough of those 3. Their jobs are amazing. Thank you for the upload...I love you!

I remember watching this before I saw the other work Ruth Goodman has been in. Now I'm just obsessed with all these types of series.

Ruth, Peter and Alex get along so well...perfect team

This show is so unique. I just love it!

This is utterly amazing

as a chef I I have to give this my big seal of approval! VERY cool

On "women and carrying water" I would say that the corsets actually help that job, because they are doing the same job those big leather belts are doing for modern day weight lifters ...

@peachesandcream4897

4 жыл бұрын

Muck006 Yes I can definitely see why they could provide support to the back. Although in older days they were much tighter, and the tighter the corset the more problematic. From what I remember of my dad, those weight lifting belts are short and do not compress your ribs and lungs in the same way? In a tight corset you cannot breathe properly which makes any physical exertion more difficult. (I recall this being demonstrated by Suzannah Lipscomb in one of her hidden killer documentaries, when corsets were at their tightest and most harmful to health.) You can get nice post partum medical corsets today that are designed especially for support, they do not crush you or suck you in like a traditional corset. They support your lower body in the way I imagine one of those belts would. topherh33 Men are naturally stronger and more physically powerful than women, that’s just nature. I mean, on average. Maybe you need some zinc or something 💪🏼

So fascinating:)!!! I enjoy these so much! Thanks to Ruth, Alex and Peter:)!

I find this Fascinating! I have viewed it before, happy to see it's back on. The fact that Archaeologists are replicating recipes, clothing and actually doing the physical work that was performed 300 years ago is truly amazing.

You'd have better luck grinding the almonds a sugar if you did it in smaller batches, it reduces it to powder more quickly. You can stir it up in a bigger bowl later.

PBS did a couple of these kind of shows in America. But that was so long ago, I wish America would produce more historical reality shows instead of "real" housewives. Does any other English speaking or (English subtitled ) country make these types of programs! Like living during the French Revolution or Italian Renaissance? Or durning the Chinese dynasties?

Honestly you can only do such a series properly for your own country. Thus french and italian series would be french and italian ... and also: there would be too much "scripting" in a series with the french revolution ... which you didnt really want (as in the reality shows). Britain doesnt have many "political changes" in its history which affects the mainland, so it is the cleanest way to document farming ... which is the point of this archaeological/historical experiment.

tyvm. i watch some of the tuder on tv. it got a little racey for me so i quit. but you guys are the real deal. Hi Peter

I've watched this before, and I'm still questioning the alleged lack of a well at Haddon Hall. Most people who could afford it had a well dug, at least for use during inclement weather and when waters were muddy from rain (or so I've read, and it makes sense to me). Maybe this program chose to use fetching water with buckets and yoke to show what many people had to do. Maybe the well at Haddon had gone dry or fallen into disrepair. If anyone knows details, please reply.

@stupidintellect90 haha I just stumbled upon it too! I have watched the Farms' series' over and over and was looking for videos of the 3 and found this! YAY! Thank you!!

Watch Victorian Pharmacy, that show is great, very interesting facts.

I want to do something like this!!

Yeah, but I think that washing a pillow case or the like was probably more time intensive than cleaning a mortar and pestle.

all of these sorts of shows were done so long ago I wonder why they don't do a new one. I'd LOVE to do something like this! Don't even need a monetary incentive just gimmie the clothes, the tools and a few good books (or Ruth and the boys hosting????) Like- c'mon, who here wouldn't wanna do that!

And king henry VIII said Hampton court was his favourite court so obviously this was a rich court

This was aired on BBC TV2.

Tudor bones out of that one!

there was once in victorian farm where alex yelled out fonz when they were trying to load something I think.

It is on YT, just search for it.

12:39 Why did they not put the sugar in a pillowcase (or equivalent) and use a mallet on it? Surely there was a quicker/easier way to pound that sugar than using a mortar and pestle.

A GREAT VIDEO AND SO MUCH BETTER HAD THE QUALITY OF PICTURE BEEN BETTER ABOUT 480 P?

Several years ago PBS aired a well done documentary about life in Colonial America. The format was very similar to this. Too bad you missed it! ;->

she crossed a bridge to return with the water. was there a reason she couldn't get the water from that side of the river? Would the refuse from the castle be emptying into it there? I'm ust wondering why they choose certain spots for difficult tasks. There was a similar moment in the Edwardian series, I think, where she walked along a stretch of path beside the river for a bit before getting water. I know you try to avoid contaminates, but it's all going to be boiled. Or did the Tudors not know about boiling water for purity, not just for general use?

Boiling doesn't remove all contamination. It only kills bacteria born contamination. There is contamination from other sources as well, such as minerals and pollution.

This must be so exciting to reenact how life was during this era. The backbreaking work people had to do, especially the poor women. I'm sure it didn't even matter, as they probably put it, "with child" I think it would be interesting to see today's teenagers get a taste of what life was like back then. You didn't dare refuse to do your chores. I'm wondering how they could go one day without their cell phones and electronic devices.😀 Love watching these documentaries.

I can't believe they would've been using flint n steel to light th fires. Candles n oil lamps were v. common. Surely there would've been a candle burning jes for such purposes. When a person is rising before dawn surely s/he will hav a candle on th way to th kitchen.

Actually, yes they would. Don't forget the time period. The items you mention, didn't come into use until much later among the English and other people on the British controlled lands. Same with most of Europe. Modern equipment like the mortar and pestle didn't come into common use, until much later. For her to even have that for grinding was considered very fortunate.
