The issue with modern people is they don't even know how to put on the old clothes. They would be technologically-illiterate trying to use complex pre-industrial tech, and so would have a very hard time, much harder than the people of the time.

There have been a number of historical reenactment shows over the years. Continual this-is-hard reax would be a bit tiresome, so usually they include lots of success.

If you want struggle, and will accept some industrialization there was "Frontier House" from PBS.

Otherwise, I recommend the "Tales of Green Valley" historical farm series and sequels for a well-informed English version. Here is the sequel "Tudor Monastery Farm" on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjgZr0v9DXyK9Cc8PG0Zh...
