4x60'
Jeremy Paxman takes his love of Victorian painting as the starting point for a remarkable journey into Victorian Britain. From dramatic scenes of family conflict to crowded railway stations and men in battle, Jeremy explores the passions that drove our Victorian forebears. In military barracks and stately homes, travelling by canal boat and steam train, he looks at how the dream of Home Sweet Home was destroyed by the philandering of the Victorian male; how the nightmare that was the Victorian city turned into a wonder of the world, and how Victorian Britons came to believe they were born to rule the Earth.
