PASSIONATE ABOUT RE-LEARNING OLD SKILLS?

WANT TO LEARN TO BE SELF SUFFICIENT?

'WHY NOT SPEND A WEEK ON A VICTORIAN FARM?

We are looking for people for a unique opportunity to escape the modern world and spend a week on the Victorian Farm featured in the BBC2 series, located on the Acton Scott Estate in Shropshire.

The team behind the original television series are now looking for everyday families to take part in a new BBC2 series called 'Escape in Time'.  The families will have the chance to live for a week on the estate where the Victorian Farm series was filmed, rediscovering the practical skills and self-sufficiency that our grandparents had, but which we have lost, whilst competing against each other mastering tasks and crafts from the Victorian age.

It's an unparalleled opportunity to work together as a family and enjoy the pleasure of learning to plough fields, weave baskets, make bread, tend to the animals, brew beer and many other skills.

If you think you might be interested, and you and your family (minimum of two people) can be available for one week's filming in September 2009, please email the producers, Lion Television,  at  escape@liontv.co.uk with your contact telephone number, for more information.
