Annabel Crabb and Carol Ferrone and her family - husband Peter and their children, Julian, Sienna and Olivia - are once again venturing back into the past for ABC's Back In Time series. This time, they're only going up the road - to the beloved corner shop! Here, Carol tells Woman's Day why the corner shop holds such a special place in not only her heart, but our nation's.
Did you jump at the chance to do a new season of Back In Time?
Yes, absolutely! Surprisingly, I thought I'd have to convince Sienna to jump on board after the calf's head incident in season 2 but she was just as excited as we all were when we got the call to run our own corner shop through history.
Why do you think the show resonates with viewers?
I think first and foremost because we make learning Australian history relatable as well as relevant. Our audience gets to experience our history - the good and the bad, not through dated history books or academics but through us - an everyday Australian family that they can relate to.
