Video Description

Living the life of an Edwardian farmer isn't just about working the land—it's about working the sea! This month, Ruth Goodman is hunting for brown shrimp and building a fish smokery, while Alex and Peter join a traditional sailing trawler, the Key Wade, for a dangerous trawl. From cattle droving and making essential lanolin to learning the deceptive secrets of the Edwardian séance, our team fights to find a new source of income. 💚 Join the Absolute History club to get access to exclusive member benefits! 👉 https://bit.ly/3qTE0NR 📺 Do you love uncovering the past, exploring historic sites, and venturing to distant lands?
