Synopsis

A family goes back 100 years in time. In this fascinating social experiment, we see a modern day family deal with the challenges of turn-of-the-century manners, dress, morals, work and lack of modern conveniences. A house is restored to its 1900 state with electrical fittings, modern plumbing and all traces of the 20th century removed. The house and garden is rebuilt in 1900s style, complete with longdrop toilet. Based on a UK format, and followed on in NZ by Colonial House (2003).

Hi, I am wanting to get a copy of this program but have had no luck.
Can anyone help me?
Janice Feyen (the mum in this show) told me she was able to get a DVD of the program a while ago. So it is possible.
Cheers
