This week we continue on with BBC’s Wartime Farm series for TV Thursday.

BBC’s Wartime Farm, Episode 4
Now replicating the restrictions of 1942, the team deals with fuel and food shortages. As they retrofit a vehicle to run on a coal generator Alex heads to the coal mines to learn what it was like to work the mines in wartime. Ruth and her daughter (who is in for a visit) learn about the Women’s Timber Corps (and even get to interview a real “lumber Jill” who worked for the war effort back in those days). Ruth also works at a British Restaurant (or emergency food center) that feeds evacuees and air raid victims.
