ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING VIDEO! I'm from America, born and bred in the south, It's the amount of food that impresses me, the more you eat, the more there is. Thank you for sharing!
This was a lot of fun, and the food was delicious (although a few of the 'desserts' tasted odd by modern standards). (I worked as an extra - you can see me in the red-and-gold hat at 52:58 and 58:37 :D )
@@dwhitman3092 I have so many no-go's. I loathe sweet things in savouries. So from the return from the crusades, when dried sweet fruit went into everything, I'd be picking out things for hours... Or snapping, Just give me the bread and butter. And the carrots... All that time, I couldn't even comfort myself with potatoes!
I (as a former Brit) have shown my American born and raised wife all these Tudor,Victorian and Edwardian programmes and she gets it. Some of these skills,remedies and recipes we should remember and continue.
That was wonderful! Thank you so much for bringing this to life for us all over the world. I must admit though, watching those lower table women enjoy their drink has given me a powerful thirst!
This is stunning! at last I can see and figure out what I have been reading for so long. This must be a "once in a lifetime" experience! as well as makers or guests to the table! Fantastic video, thank you so much!

*NOT to be confused* with Tudor Christmas feast of laymen which was depicted with the same key hosts in a separate documentary many years later than this was filmed in 2006.
Oh, sure... Like rolling into the pawn shop now with a 4 oz gold bar. No, you will get in trouble quick. If you are going back, get 4-5 pounds of sugar. $500 a pound. A baggie of cinnamon is more like $1,000 or a bit more. Also, peppercorns and a pound of salt.
Thank you for this wonderful documentary...THE WORK...I am so lucky to live in modern times...I maybe could have handled the 1800's but NOT the 15/1600's...I would have been passed away by 40 years old...
Amazing - you can read about this kind of history, you can be told about it. But until you SEE it being done, it doesn't really come alive as the human experience. Fantastic documentary - would love to see many more like this.
I wonder who the "chosen few" are that get to experience the end result AND does our "Team" get to try any of it (even if out of character) to see how the dishes came out...? And what is it about Peter/Fonz that so draws the attention?
I was taught to attempt to serve all dishes to their correct temperature. I would have a board or list of order of preparation. That was a proof of a good cook, second to actual taste.😄
I find it interesting that the men are the primary domestic cooks of this era and the women employed for more menial tasks. So very different from later domestic service! Although fine Chefs were often male. The cook in most country estates was a woman and the idea of having women doing the hauling was given over to men. Although housework is hard work and skivvies work is back breaking in any era.

is this the only tudor farm programme? it's the only one i can find, but i thought there was a series, like their other ones, only in Tudor times lol not just christmas.. ?; but maybe i've got a bit confused 🙂 x
Kay, That was my thought too. I wonder if it is after Fonzie. In the show before this, they were calling him Fonzie. It's a nickname he wanted to be called.
I don't think he looks like Fonzie. I am a bit old for Sesame St, I thought he might have been nicknamed Fozzie Bear, because he always seemed so sweet and bear like strong... Except I thought Fozzie Bear was Fonzie Bear - so I had that wrong! I can't think why he would want to be Fonzie. He seems far more attractive than Fonzie - but maybe, at the time, he had dark coloring and the MASSIVE popularity of the character, made it seem like a compliment.
Why the f*** do they keep calling Peter, Fonz? Is there another Peter on the team or something? Swans are technically owned by the queen in England aren't they?
Fonz is his nickname, I believe from his uni days. In Tales of the Green Valley they all called him Fonz. In later series it almost completely disappears, but every now and then Alex still uses it. They went to uni together, so it would be hard for him to drop it completely.
The wood for the fires in these times, or any times, would have had to be seasoned for a least a year before use. Using "green" wood, and its slower fire, necessarily slows down the cooking time. And how did they keep all that food hot? Also, the "nobility" of the time seemed to spend their time ostentatiously "showing off" their wealth-not very noble, imo.
Yeah it's something about copyright. Silly frames like this or have a frame with a web address etc or sometimes they do annoying things like slightly slow it down or add background noise/music.

Ruth is such a trooper. Always so cheerful. I love all of them.

Wow!! What a great experience!!
How wonderful! Playing, learning, enjoying yourself, free food and being paid! Tho' I am so squeamish about food, I'd probably be sacked!
@@georgielancaster1356 same here, lol!

Take-home message for time travellers: If you travel to Tudor times, takes some nutmeg and cinnamon with you - as pocket money. :-)
🤣

Time is gone, relativity can slow it but we can't go back. 😢
Fantastic watching on Christmas Eve, 2019 by the Convicts in Australia 🇦🇺
Where's Kevin 'Bloody' Wilson? Hey Santa,where's my effing bike?
Thank you for this wonderful documentary...THE WORK...I am so lucky to live in modern times...I maybe could have handled the 1800's but NOT the 15/1600's...I would have been passed away by 40 years old...
God bless. All the best. Many many good wishes and a nice lovely warm good nice life.
Gordon Ramsay shows up and cuts menu down to fish and chips, cottage pie, beef stew,and complained that the peacock pie was dry and over dressed😂🤣😂🤣
Roflmao
"What are you? An effing 🦚 peacock sandwich!"
There is a little patch of wild strawberries in a hedgerow near my house, they are truly delicious but so tiny
Amazing - you can read about this kind of history, you can be told about it. But until you SEE it being done, it doesn't really come alive as the human experience. Fantastic documentary - would love to see many more like this.
Fantastic. I truly enjoy and am educated.
God I love this so much, Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas,
From the future, again on Christmas
🌲☃️🔥🕯
Merry Christmas, Happy holidays and Feliz Navidad...
At 18:25 "Alex is skinning a deer" while being "helped" by a local butcher! Lol!h
There is something super attractive about Peter
He does have a really hard to describe charm
I completely agree!
Even i have to agree. He stands out...
Peter is just plain manly. That's attractive.
He is a hunk!!!
absolument brillant ! good show 5*
Certainly beats a McDonald's drive through meal.
Fantastic!
They need a cart that they could fill with buckets of water, faster and easier than the yoke.
I wish icoukd meet Ruth Alex and Peter and live on these farms while they are doing these films and participate
I wonder who the "chosen few" are that get to experience the end result AND does our "Team" get to try any of it (even if out of character) to see how the dishes came out...?
And what is it about Peter/Fonz that so draws the attention?
cos he's gorgeous

In one of Lucy Worsley's doc, it was explained that men were paid more and if you had a kitchen filled with men. it meant you were rich and powerful.
So true. I found it surprisng, the work load women were even asked to carry.
Literally conspicuous consumption 😊
Haddon Hall, more glass than wall
What is this curtains and seats...it look like a puppet show set.
It also cuts off the sides and bottom of the movie. I don't like that at all!
I wondered the same it’s distracting

Ruth is fantastic.
is this the only tudor farm programme?
it's the only one i can find, but i thought there was a series, like their other ones, only in Tudor times lol
not just christmas.. ?;
but maybe i've got a bit confused 🙂 x
O e a d o lucky tinkerbell, great advice. Lmbo
Awesome
Why are they calling Peter "Fonz"? "Peter" sounds so much better.
I always assumed it was a childhood nickname. He drops the nickname in later shows.
He looks a bit like the character the Fonz from the TV show "Happy Days".
Kay,
That was my thought too. I wonder if it is after Fonzie. In the show before this, they were calling him Fonzie.
It's a nickname he wanted to be called.
I don't think he looks like Fonzie. I am a bit old for Sesame St, I thought he might have been nicknamed Fozzie Bear, because he always seemed so sweet and bear like strong... Except I thought Fozzie Bear was Fonzie Bear - so I had that wrong!

The "fonz" bit was ridiculous.
Why the f*** do they keep calling Peter, Fonz? Is there another Peter on the team or something?
Swans are technically owned by the queen in England aren't they?
Fonz is his nickname, I believe from his uni days. In Tales of the Green Valley they all called him Fonz. In later series it almost completely disappears, but every now and then Alex still uses it. They went to uni together, so it would be hard for him to drop it completely.
Some of the thing that take so long do so because they’re not used to doing it.
where are your bellows?
Why are the episodes blocked in the UK
It's a BBC program, I assume it has had some sort of copyright strike! Such a pity, I really wanted to watch the series 😥
The wood for the fires in these times, or any times, would have had to be seasoned for a least a year before use. Using "green" wood, and its slower fire, necessarily slows down the cooking time. And how did they keep all that food hot? Also, the "nobility" of the time seemed to spend their time ostentatiously "showing off" their wealth-not very noble, imo.
what the hell is up with the red drapes?
I assume the person posting the video wants to avoid copyright infringement. I've seen much worse than red drapes.
Yeah it's something about copyright. Silly frames like this or have a frame with a web address etc or sometimes they do annoying things like slightly slow it down or add background noise/music.
Where's Joel and the Bots?
We're here. Late, but here.
Totally false
