Tony Robinson's History of Britain

S02E02 Edwardians

Tony transports us to the early 1900s, an era marked by sophistication, technological advancements, social inequality, and progressive changes: the Edwardian Period. He introduces us to two passengers of the Titanic. One is Arthur Priest, a fireman responsible for maintaining the ship’s furnaces. The other is Nellie Barber, a lady’s maid who closely attends to her employer, the American Mrs. Cavendish, constantly preparing and repairing her numerous dresses.
