This episode explores how people in medieval England survived long, freezing winter nights without electricity, central heating, or insulation. It reveals how small hearths, thick wool clothing, straw bedding, and shared sleeping spaces helped conserve precious warmth. The documentary follows nightly routines shaped by darkness—banking embers, shuttering windows, and retreating early to bed as cold settled into timber and stone homes. Told in a quiet, atmospheric tone, it shows how routine, resourcefulness, and endurance made winter sleep possible centuries before modern comforts.
