The team go back to DIY basics, with the help of the woodsman, the blacksmith and the basket maker. Ruth has a go at some traditional potions and remedies. When the wheat crop comes under attack, its time for some pest control, Victorian style, as Alex and Peter join a pheasant hunt. Alex goes out catching rabbits with a team of Victorian poachers. And with spring around the corner the first baby animals are ready to be born.

It's amazing to see craftsman - artists that carry on this tradition. This beauty. Art like this is nearly going extinct. Hopefully, more and more people will carry on these traditions, like the basket maker and all the artists in this series. There's something so astounding and sincere about it. Things like this rarely exist nowadays. Edit: oh, and the "Victorian" baths, remind me of when I was little and something went wrong with the pipes in our house and running water to the bath in our families house was impossible. My mom would heat up water on the stove and we used to bathe exactly the same way. Except my mom called them "oakie" baths 😂

There is one fisherman who is living off his craft (mostly by selling it directly to local customers) here in my city of 3,5 million ... and the point is that "the craft" might be learnable from books, but the local "tips and tricks" (i.e. where to find the most fish) need to be passed down or "rediscovered" after they have been forgotten.

One thing I keep on mentioning A LOT is the BENEFITS OF CORSETS, because nowadays MANY WOMEN COMPLAIN ABOUT BACK ACHES ... which are a sign of "overuse" or "bad posture". Corsets "gently remind you" to sit straight AND whenever you are doing some heavy lifting they give the same protection which the broad leather belts add to the performances of strongmen and weightlifters ... by simply "reflecting the force of the belly muscles back inside the body ... to stabilise the entire stomach area." Sadly women have forgotten about this ... due to PROPAGANDA.

Women were shaving their legs in the Middle Ages. It wasn't a matter of being "authentic" for the show, or "conforming to female expectations" (lmao), but a matter of rural life, when you just don't have time for that sort of thing as much as you'd like.

Or it could be Ruth's personal choice being in her Late forties & quite a light person I'm sure the director left it up to the historian herself-Wish she had mentioned it
