    EDITED to say; I found it on BBC! Thank you.
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

    yes its different times rosie. Scotland was a different time from other areas but I watched it on here. I sort of went off being a victorian after I watched her doing the washing....

    Am sooooooooooo glad everyone loves this series, OK so now is the time to own up. Some of the household items used in the series actually belong to Grumpy grandad and I. Its a long story but it all started with the dough trough seen episode 1 on the table. To cut the story short we were more than happy to loan some of our much used and loved Victorian items to the series. We took them down before the start of the filming [the farm is even more beautiful than on the telly and had a wonderful day there with everyone, ditto when we went back to collect them a year later]. My greatest thrill to date was seeing my old Victorian scales carefully carried into the cottage by Ruth, I now tell the dresser each time I go into the kitchen that it is honoured to be the home to a TV star, as they are now back in their rightful place, my funniest was seeing my old apple basket used as a hat on Christmas day, that too is now back hung in the kitchen.

    Thank you NannaC for that inside information:D . It is a lovely series and you must be thrilled to see your items on screen. Good to know that these items are still used, loved and cherished today.

    Did they really say that the ram they brought in to 'see to' the lady sheep weighed 22 stones?

    nannaC, thanks for the info, it makes it even more interesting. Is there anything else of yours we should look for? I love your kitchen scales and Ruth carried them in so carefully; she seems to be really enjoying herself apart from the washing of course :eek: - I'm with you there Mardatha but I do love the clothes, though not sure I could manage to vac wearing it! :D

    It looks such a beautiful place.

    Don't worry, speaking as a man I can assure you the ram kept almost all of it's weight on it's back legs.

    EDIT: Removed a line as requested.

    Right, I'm off to bed now, and when I wake up tomorrow my first thought is going to be

    "Did I really say that!" :o
