Edwardian Farm is a British historical documentary TV series in twelve parts, first shown on BBC Two from November 2010 to January 2011. As the third series on the BBC historic farm series, following the original, Tales from the Green Valley, it shows a group of historians recreating the running of a farm during the Edwardian era. It was made for the BBC by independent production company Lion Television and filmed at Morwellham Quay, an historic port in Devon. The farming team was historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn. The series was devised and produced by David Upshal[1][2] and directed by Stuart Elliott, Chris Michell and Naomi Benson.
The series is a development from two previous series, Victorian Farm and Victorian Pharmacy, which were among BBC Two's biggest hits of 2009 and 2010, receiving audiences of up to 3.8 million per episode. It was followed by Wartime Farm in September 2012, featuring the same team but this time in Hampshire on Manor Farm, living a full calendar year as World War II-era farmers.[3][4][5]
An associated book by Goodman, Langlands, and Ginn, also titled Edwardian Farm, was published in 2010 by BBC Books.[6] The series was also released on DVD.
Ceri Radford wrote in The Daily Telegraph that 'Beyond farming, the presenters do not live in an Edwardian bubble: during filming, they can go home to their families and even embrace modern dental hygiene. Even the traditional methods they use to rear chickens, turkeys, goats, pigs and cattle, have their limitations; modern bureaucracy intrudes. "Every time a calf is born, you have to tag it and register it. After six weeks it nearly gave us a nervous breakdown," Langlands says'.[7]
