->''Blists Hill Victorian Town in Shropshire revives the sights, sounds and smells of the nineteenth century. At its heart stands the pharmacy. A treasure house of potions and remedies from a century and a half ago. Now, in a unique experiment, Ruth Goodman, Nick Barber and Tom Quick are opening the doors to the [[TitleDrop Victorian Pharmacy]]. Recreating a high street institution we take for granted, but which was once a novel idea. They'll bring the pharmacy to life, sourcing ingredients, mixing potions and dispencing cures. But in an age when skin creams contained arsenic and cold cures were made from opium, the team will have to be highly selective. They'll only make safe versions of traditional remedies and try them out on carefully selected customers. They'll discover an age of social transformation that brought healthcare within the reach of ordinary people for the very first time, heralding a consumer revolution that reached far beyond medicine, to create the model for the modern high street chemist, as we know it today.''

All work stopped on Christmas Eve, for twelve days of revelry and feasting, culminating on the twelfth night, with the biggest party of the year, when madness reigned. Historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Tom Pinfold and Peter Ginn have spent the last six months turning the clock back to Tudor England, woking as farmers under the watchful eye of the country's biggest landowners, the monasteries. Now, they're returning, to celebrate Christmas... Tudor style. They must revive lost skills to prepare feasts, learn the art of falconry to catch game for a grand banquet at the monastery, while welcoming new life to their farm... This is the untold story of how the farms of Tudor England celebrated the twelve days of Christmas.''

A new class of business-savvy farmer was thriving, boosting food production, while wool from their sheep was generating half the nation's wealth. Many of the nation's farms were under control of the biggest landowner in England after the king, the monasteries. Their influence could be felt in every aspect of daily life.

Now, historian Ruth Goodman, and archaeologists Tom Pinfold and Peter Ginn are turning the clock back, to relearn the secrets of the medieval castle builders. The origin of our castles is distinctly French, introduced to Britain at the time of the Norman Conquest in 1066. Here, in the Burgundy region of France, is Guédelon Castle, the world's biggest archaeological experiment. A twenty-five year project... to build a castle from scratch, using the same tools, techniques and materials available in the 13th century. For the next six months, Ruth, Peter and Tom will experience the daily rigours of medieval construction and everyday life. How workers dressed and ate, and the art of combat. This is the story of how to build a medieval castle...''
