Can Modern People Survive On WW2 Food Rations? | Turn Back Time | Absolute History



Published
A group of modern shopkeepers and their families are on the journey of a lifetime - they're taking over empty shops in a neglected market square in Shepton Mallet to see if they can turn back time for the British High Street. They'll live and trade through six key eras of history and in this episode they begin their journey in the 1870s when the high street was born.

The shopkeepers make up the key trades; there's the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker, and the grocer. Overseeing it all is an expert Chamber of Commerce, headed up by greengrocer and Masterchef judge Gregg Wallace.
