A Tudor Feast - Part 1 of 4 

Cooked in many state&for many people+big family&even in my 70's I'm really amazed at how Ruth in camera does it as if you're sitting at her table chatting-few obvious breaks(driving the Ambulance to a corner in Wartime farm) & all taken in stride-sheesh

Never mind, some people don’t even like themselves 😌

Maybe it’s just the film quality they object to.

Unfortunately on a cell phone, you can set it down and accidentally hit the thumbs down.

Im with you. I have enjoyed this documentary very much.

Wild boar all over Texas. Hunting season for them is everyday

I love the farm series too. I learn so much about history.

Mee tolove this woman she's got gumption and more energy than I would ever have have you watched victorian bakers and victorian slum

I've rewatched them soooooo many times. It's comfort-watching at its finest. Also, there's definitely nothing embarrassing about it!! Or at least, according to me there's not 😅

Acton Scott farm may close for good. What a shame.

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 💪🏼

Hi

Umm

@@peachesandcream4897 Tightlacing was not common - & before metal grommets & busks, in the mid-late 19th c, it would not really be possible to tightlace - also, stays were not corsets...

Check out 18th Century Cooking. It's a fascinating look at cooking during the colonial times in the US. It's really well done. Townsend also gives you instructions on how to cook your dish in a modern kitchen if you don't cook with an open fire.

+Emily P Thank you very much! I will google it now.

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.

Did they really? Oh do you recall names? Getting used to the five presenters btwn all the series on utube(I include my favorite Colin&add in Tom also)

American Patriot channel does an amazing job cooking recipes from books of the colonial era. I love their log home, clothes and furniture.

Yes, but rich Tudors were all about showing off their wealth. Sugar was new and extremely expensive. Honey wasn't.

He stopped using his nickname as he got older---probably for more credibility. This is an early documentary with this team. The earliest is "Tales From the Green Valley".

In every series he does

He only mentions itnin this one and green valley

soniciti I agree! Over the last few months, I've watched the Tudor Monastery Farm, Edwardian Farm, and Wartime Farm. I can't get enough! I'm going to miss these historians when I run out of programs to watch Lol

tamonettX500 Have you watched Clarissa W.'s series on The King's Cookbook? It's awesome if you haven't. Be well! :)

soniciti lol!! You got it right the first time. :) It's just 'series', as it can also serve for the plural definition. Be well!

I agree.. bbc always puts out great interesting stuff. Love it. I live in the states and go to bbc for news, etc. love that station

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.

Victorian Pharmacy episode 1 - RU-vid (in case you haven't found it) m. youtube.com>watch Duration 59:15 posted: 1/05/2018. I hope to view the series soon too. Cheers J

You might have hit the spot there ... being a "ladies man" might have given him that nickname.

It was explained (during one of the series), that Peter does a great Fonzie impersonation..... thus the nickname.😊

Porridge (soupy pulse with whatever thickened with flour or rye or oats) sometimes a catch- fish, coney,thrush_ if they were allowed to. Left over cuts of meat if they coul get. Staples like turnips cabbages. Most likely it was a whats on hand sort of thing if you were poor.

mary m Yes I recall watching Victorian Farm before and when I went back it's gone!!!!

Ditto! I think the whole channel was deleted :/ I was just hunting for it to link it to a friend but alas it's gone! I think the name of the channel they used to be on was like mad man in a box or something to that effect. :(

What a stupid question. Putting up anything like TV shows on youtube is breaking copyright laws and people only get away with it because no one bothers AND youtube doesnt care to check all the stuff that gets uploaded before allowing it to be shown. All they have is an automatic search routine which checks for music ...

Muck006 I bet you're oh so fun at parties

Or at least have horses or donkeys pulling carts containing the buckets of water.

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.

Yes it was the Elizabethan period, as the year 1590 falls under the reign of Elizabeth I. It can also be referred to as the Tudor period because Queen Elizabeth I belonged to the dynasty of the House of Tudor (1485-1603).

Haddon Hall was not built in 1590; the vast majority of the building dates to between the 11th-13th century (with a couple of rooms, such as the Long Gallery, added in the 16th/ 17th century).

Cool.... 11th Century, 13th Century whatever. It is still not “Ancient”. That is ‘High Medieval’ en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/11th_century

@@B61Mod12 I didn’t say it was ancient, just correcting the date you gave.
