Tony Robinson's History of Britain

Victorians (1x2)

Air date: Jan 11, 2020

Tony explores the lives of people from the Victorian era, including a 13-year-old girl who worked 14-hour shifts in a Bryant & May factory in London's East End, a woman who worked down a mine at Knowles Pitt near Bolton and a navvy who blasted tons of rock from the Highlands to help construct an ambitious water channel. Tony also hears the story of one of the first employees of Marks & Spencer.
