VICTORIAN FARM: CHRISTMAS

Trailer

Following the success of BBC Two's Victorian Farm series, three more one-hour specials look at the lives of 19th Century farmers. Filmed in and around the Acton Scott Estate in Shropshire, historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn return to the Estate to tackle an array of new farming tasks; to explore life in the wider working countryside; and discover in depth how the Victorians created the celebration of Christmas as we know it today - from greeting cards and Christmas Carols to the rich array of festive food they put on the table.
