Series presented by Ben Fogle in which families take up the challenge of becoming Victorian farmers on the Acton Scott Estate in Shropshire. For one week they step back in time to learn the traditional skills of our farming ancestors, competing against each other in daily and weekly challenges: from mucking out the pigs to making a perfect cottage loaf. A host of experts are on hand to judge their handiwork, and the family that wins the most challenges wins that day's prize.

Taking up the Escape in Time challenge this time are the Bagleys from Birmingham and the Booths from Canterbury. The children learn to drive a donkey and cart, the Mums attempt to get to grips with an antique sewing machine and the Dads take on the arduous task of repairing a dry stone wall. Show less
