Collection of documentaries following a team of archaeologists and historians as they set out to recreate farming life at various periods in the past. In 'Victorian Farm' Ruth Goodman, Peter Ginn and Alex Langlands take a year out of their lives to find out what rural life was really like on an 1880s farm, as they tend pigs and sheep, cultivate the land and try to survive without modern-day aids. 'Edwardian Farm' sees the trio recreate the experience of life on a farm at the turn of the 20th century. Finally, in 'Wartime Farm' Goodman, Ginn and Langlands attempt to live under the same conditions as World War II farmers. Will they be able to operate a successful farm using only the tools and equipment available in the 1940s?

Great set! Fun and educational!
Fantastic collection. You will need an international dvd or blu-ray player. At least a player that isn't region locked. Set is made for UK regional distribution.

Show content gets 5 stars, problem with one disc
Please note you need a multi-region DVD player to view these discs.I discovered the "farm" series online and wanted to add them to my collection. The shows are great! Historically accurate to the best of my knowledge, educational and entertaining. The content earns 5 stars.I completed watching Wartime Farm and found that the final disc skips and freezes in places. There is no visual damage to the disc that I can see and this is the reason for 4 stars. Watching Victorian farm now and no problems to note. Shipping was quick considering it was international, and a second purchase from the same seller was combined in the shipment, which was great.Overall satisfied. Just be aware that you need a multi-region DVD player if you are in the US and that there may be some issues with skipping.

Not an easy company to work with.
I didn’t understand what the “regions” were about. Having just purchased a ridiculously overpriced dvd/blue ray, I thought it would be fine. I was wrong. I was excited to watch this but instead I have to return it paying for shipping it twice. I’m not happy with the company, and will not be using them again.
