Industrial Revelations: Best of British
Rory McGrath presents this hugely entertaining and popular show. Look closely and you'll find that the Brits are behind many of the big engineering advances that shaped the modern world. From steam engines to jet engines, from the train to the hovercraft, the list is second to none. 'Best of British' lifts the hood and fiddles with brakes of Britain’s engineering heritage.
Part 5: Ships
Rory McGrath celebrates Britain's maritime achievements, from the Battle of Trafalgar, through the ingenuity of Brunel, and up to the development of swift shore submarines.
