Notas del episodio
Our two amateur historians are back, and this time they are stepping back to the sweltering summer of 1858, when London was brought to a very smelly standstill by the infamous Great Stink. In this episode, they will explore the over flowing sewers, panicked politicians, and the rather fragrant spark that pushed the city towards modern sanitation.
Expect history with a whiff of humour as they uncover how a stink changed London forever!
