Episode 20
Series in which families become Victorian farmers. On the final day the families compete in a cattle show, milking and cleaning their cow and making a halter to lead it.
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.
The Degale family from Enfield - DJ and music producer Ian, Mum Isha, 14-year-old Kimisha, and 11-year-old Jhan - challenge Team Cotswold, comprised of PR consultant Ali Beasley, from Chipping Norton, her sons 14-year-old Jake and 13-year-old Sam, and partner Andy Burdett, a graphic designer. So far they've learnt everything from looking after chickens to making traditional Victorian baskets, and on the final day the families compete to see who can put on the best cattle show, milking and cleaning their cow and making a halter to lead it. Who will win the most challenges and take home the prize?
