I watch them all and obviously really interested to see and record next weeks program. Ruth Goodman did one tiny little piece of bobbin lace in a previous series, I think the victorian time for the lady of the big house. I have enjoyed watching for the historical and social contaent, but to see

I'm afraid the BBc.com will never 'get its act together' for as long as we have to pay a license fee (for owning a television or watching on a PC) to fund the BBC. Only if that changes may BBC programmes be available on line internationally. If I log on to BBC iplayer via the aol website

I am also frustrated that we can't access these shows! I recently learned about Hulu.com, where all sorts of movies and TV shows can be watched whenever you want over your computer. If you pay a fee, you can also watch on your TV, iPod, iPad, etc... They have all sorts of obscure stuff, but

If you campaign your local PBS station, they might show the series. We have had Victorian Farm here in Ottawa, but that might have been on TV Ontario which is also a Public Broadcast Station with some support from Ontario but also with public support. I realise that the PBS station in

I personally think that there is a good chance that the show will come to one of several PBS channels in my area, through which I have enjoyed Eastenders for years. I just loved the Victorian House, and Edwardian House shows, and the Regency one where all the young people were supposed to

Well how did the two youtube videos come about? Were they pirated and if so maybe they could be persuaded to do it again with the lacemaking bits. :-) How do we contact the perpetrators? Seems you can post anything on the Internet these days even if it seems treasonable, re: wikileaks.
