TVO's Victorian Farm

Has anyone else seen this program on TVO? I think it is an original BBC aired set of episodes but here is the website and description of the first episode.

It's a fantastic series, it was only something like 4 or 5 episodes. I'm hoping through BBC or Amazon I can order the DVD of the episodes.

That looks like a show I would really be interested in watching!

It was a great series, sad that it was so short. There was a point where they had a chicken coop on wheels and to fertilize their fields they rolled it and cleaned it out onto the field.

I'm hoping to find it on DVD but all I've found so far is a book written by the historians involved.

Some of the things the deal with is a failing Wheat crop, failed hay/hay making, Lame work horse, seeding pasture, hoof rot in their sheep, making cheese, etc etc.
