Title: Youtube suggestions?
Post by: Cocomartinez on November 04, 2014, 05:26:59 pm

Hello!

I´ve just discovered Countryfile on Youtube, now working my way through 2013. I like the rare breeds more than the large scale farming stuff.  I did enjoy Victorian Farm and Edwardian Farm etc., also.

Being in Spain, alot on the internet isn´t available directly, so I wondered if there were any suggestions of other series I could look for on YT or Vimeo or somesuch.

All in the name of research, you understand. ;)

Thank you!

I confess I have been seduced by the Beeb´s production values.  Any other series suggestions, maybe in Scotland or Wales or Ireland? What´s ¨Landward´ about?

Maybe I´ll just search old episodes of Gardener´s World.

Thanks!

Resurrecting this  :)

So, I've just purchased the amazon 'fire stick' and can now get Youtube on the big telly.
My Oh and I are both partial to the odd Youtube binge from time to time but I'm looking forward to sitting with him and watching something together.
What I'd really like is a homesteading or smallholding series that we can dip into whenever we have the time. Not just individual videos but something ongoing.

Any ideas?

castaway 2000 is a good one, real fly on the wall on Taransay, and how people learn to cope with life on an island or there's Power to the Pococks  :thumbsup:
