BBC Two - Ben Fogle's Escape in Time, Episode 6

The children get to grips with a hand-operated Victorian corn kibbler.

Series in which families become Victorian farmers. Taking up the Escape in Time challenge this time are the Bray family from Suffolk and the Trevithick family from Cornwall.

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 Bray family from Suffolk - pharmaceutical technician David, park ranger Christine, eight-year-old Jasmine and seven-year-old Melody, and the Trevithick family from Cornwall - butcher Paul, learning support assistant Helen, seven-year-old Ben and  six-year-old Jack. In this episode Paul and Dave learn to ring the 700-year-old Acton Scott bells, the Mums and Dads battle it out to see which pair can slice up a bucket of roots the quickest using some cutting-edge Victorian machinery powered by the farm's Shire horse, and the children get to grips with a hand-operated Victorian corn kibbler.
