Edwardian Farm

We really enjoyed this series, the farm is a few miles upriver from us and my husband knows a lot of the people featured.

The only thing wrong with the episodes is that they persistently mispronounce Morwellham.

If the programme gets a local on to patronise they pronounce it properly but then the following voice-over goes back to saying it incorrectly.

It's Morwell-ham.

Not Morwellum... The programme makers were told this at the time, but hey... it's only stupid yokels... so they took no notice.

They were from the Home Counties so knew better.

Every time some incomer arrives they have to be told the way to pronounce the name but quite a few just carry on saying it 'the emmet way'.

(Emmet = tourists,.. or just someone not from your village)
