If you enjoyed it as much as me and if there is more of it?

Think there have been 2 series of Back in Time for Dinner; one of Back in Time for the Factory and, starting next week, Back in Time for School

Flyingfish2019 · 04/01/2019 20:36

Thanks a lot. I did not know that. By the way: I have heard there is another series like that about schools in the past but I forgot how it was called.

If you’ve got Sky, there’s also Back in Time for Christmas when you do a search!!

Bombardier25966 · 04/01/2019 21:00

The school one started this week. Well worth watching.

There's also back in time for tea with a northern family. But I preferred the original family!

BrightYellowDaffodil · 04/01/2019 21:03

I really liked it - there were two series of Back In Time For Dinner (roughly one half of a century for each series, 1900 onwards) then Back In Time For Tea which was one series spanning the century and which followed a Northern working class family timeline, rather than a Southern middle class one.

Both are excellent, as is Back In Time For Christmas :)

There was also Back In Time For The Weekend with the lovely Ashby-Hawkins family.

Jezzifishie · 04/01/2019 21:07

The Christmas one was fab! I really enjoyed watching it.

Thanks for the heads up about the school one - I knew it was being made (received an email about casting!!) but didn't know when it was being shown.

I love it-we all watched it.

We watched the Back in Time for dinners and tea and the Christmas one. There was a factory one recently though I’m not sure that was the same series?

cobblett36 · 04/01/2019 23:43

Loved it!

Rochelle and her tin opener Grin

Flyingfish2019 · 05/01/2019 18:18

I don’t think that tin opener was that unusual, was it? We used to have one like this in my parents house and I am not that old.

I loved all of them especially the one's with the Robshaws, such a lovely family.

The family in Back in Time for the Weekend were also delightful.

Watching Back in Time for Christmas has become a recent tradition for me, the 70's and 80's ones take me right back Smile

Flyingfish2019 · 05/01/2019 18:30

Really looking forward to watching all of that... or should I wait until Christmas?

Jezzifishie · 05/01/2019 18:33

Oooh, watch it now. Then again next year 😉 (I think the programme was a couple of years old? I enjoyed it just as much the second time!)

Flyingfish2019 · 05/01/2019 18:38

I watched Tudor Monestary Farm over and over... lol

I enjoyed these, all the ones of that series have been mentioned, I also enjoyed Victorian slum and Victorian bakers, which were similar in theme

Flyingfish2019 · 05/01/2019 18:42

Victorian slim. I never heard of that one but it sounds sad and not to enjoyable...

OP posts:
Flyingfish2019 · 05/01/2019 18:57

*Victorian slum
Lol, Victorian Slim sounds like a brand of cigarettes.

My husband adored the Edwardian programme with Sue Perkins and Giles Coren.

LucyAutumn · 05/01/2019 20:03

Not exactly the same but similar in regards to living out a period of history, I really enjoyed the 1900 House programme shown in the early noughties, think you can watch it on YouTube still?

elliejjtiny · 05/01/2019 20:10

Loved those programmes. Didn't know about the school one, will catch up on iplayer.

theWarOnPeace · 05/01/2019 20:31

Loved it, I love anything like that and will quite happily watch repeats too.

Flyingfish2019 · 05/01/2019 20:37

Yes, the 1900 house is still on YouTube.

The confectioners was a good series too.
