    I'd heard about this a while back. I do like their programs and oftern watch on freeview. I was lucky enough to find a couple of books in The Works as well.

    Thanks for pointing that out. I loved the Edwardian and Victorian Farm programmes, mostlbecause my OH's family were farmers at that time. I'll look forward to seeing this. I don't like wishing my life away, but there is so much rubbish on tv usually.:(

    Oh how I love this trio, thanks kat79 for posting this.

    I have dipped in and out of the previous programmes and been catching up on the re-runs of Edwardian Farm (ones that I missed) on either BBC 3 or 4 cant remember which or what time (probably at some ungodly hour when going through my insomniac phases)
