On the 9th April 1806 in Portsmouth, Hampshire, a little boy was born. Few could have predicted the impact his work would have on the world. His name was Isambard Kingdom Brunel.


As a special treat in honour of Mr Brunel’s birthday, today I talk to Rob Bell, an engineer, podcaster and TV presenter. You may recognise him from Channel 5 documentaries on Britain’s Bridges, Ships, Lighthouses, Lost Battlefields and Railways and many more.


We’re going to discuss some of the founding fathers and mothers of Victorian Engineering... in other words, how it all began…
