Episode Details

A calm, slow telling of a true story to help you drift off. In the hot summer of 1858 the River Thames runs low and foul through London. An engineer named Joseph Bazalgette sets out to build a great network of brick tunnels beneath the city, and a wide stone embankment with gardens beside the river.

Soft rain plays throughout. No sudden sounds.
