Brunel Documentary

[Lullabelle]

As @Lullabelle I am watching it. I also checked wickapedia.....true genius (thats Brunel...not Lullabelle)
I am not an engineer (bit fick really) but nearly 200 years after he "did it" i still cant fathom how he engineered those amazing structures.

It is easy to forget just how bad the conditions were for the workers and so many lives lost

There is a Brunel museum in Rotherhithe too, where he dug the first Thames tunnel and built a number of docks.

Doesn't seem to be on there at moment, but iPlayer stuff is generally not available until 24 hours after screening on tv
