Great work.

EXCELLENT !! I had this taped on My V.C.R. !!!! Years ,Years Ago !!! Jeremy Clarkson.Presented it Very Well Indeed ! Many Thanks Indeed ! I Enjoyed it Immensly FROM, U.K. (2024).

The fact Jezza never really got the chance to make more documentaries is a crime against knowledge

I was informed that the SS Great Brittan Museum in Bristol is collecting funds to build a full size replica of the great eastern.

brunel junior more like he learned lots from his dad think he should get lots of credit too clarkson x

The man just fits in with everyone. I really enjoy Stephen Fry.

BEFORE CHRISTIANITY, there wasn’t a special day for Igbo people to come together and worship their God. There was no Sabbath day to be kept holy. Every Igbo man had his altar in his house and communicated directly with his personal God, Chi. Just like the Jews called upon their ancestors-Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Igbos believed that their ancestors, known as Ndiichie, were the intermediaries between them and the spiritual realm. Yet, the Igbo people did not consider all ancestors to be holy or qualified to serve as Ndiichie. Some factors qualified one to become a member of Ndiichie. 1. The person must have done something to help society while he was alive. 2. The person must have lived long enough. Longevity was perceived as a sign that a man finds favor before the Gods. 3. The person must have had a chieftaincy title. (Among the Igbo people of the old, taking a title was more than just a show of affluence. Since it comes with a lot of rules and regulations, titled men were seen as the most disciplined in the community.) Whoever didn’t meet these 3 criteria wasn’t considered a member of Ndiichie. His direct descendants would rely on the efficacy of the existing ancestor in the family that was a member of Ndiichie. Every Igbo man in the olden days desired to become a member of Ndiichie. Therefore, they did all they could to impact their community, pray to their Chi for long life, and aspire to be honored with a chieftaincy title by the community. With the advent of Christianity, all these have changed in Igbo land. However, some believe that the concept of Ndiichie would have deepened the Igbos’ connection to their root and history.

It is so hard to build, and so easy to tear down. We can sit in judgment of the imperialists, but one day we will recognize what good they did to our human kind. It is not ethical, or good for our future genetic heritage to leave people behind. All arguments about relativistic choices in life fail when 10 million children a year die from diseases that the Western white man has conquered 100 years ago.

Funny how 25 years later the dome is still going lol

I can’t stand NIMBYs, if they had their way we’d still be still living in caves.

Really enjoyed that, thank you.

I was a Supervisor in a Printing Company for 25yrs. I had a staff of 30. 25 women and 5 men. You had staff like Alice, knowledgible, always on time, team players and you had staff like Jodi. Young, inexperienced, not taking their job seriously. When they work in teams, employees would complain about the late ones who are keeping back production. If I didn't reprimand the slackers, it would've been seen as favouritsm. Verbal warning, Written warning, Suspension and Dismissal is exactly what BA does under a different name. But it's also the law which protects both sides. They let down the team. Weed them out from the start. Sorry to see Jodi go but she just didn't make the grade. It's nothing to do with Lipstick. It's to do with Protocol. She was told 4 times. Did you all miss that? Well done BA. I will always fly long haul with you.

With all he knows about engineering and how much he obviously admires the brilliance of Brunel, you'd think he'd be able to do a better job when he modifies cars on Top Gear/Grand Tour!

A fascinating documentary, although it's firmly in lockstep with the typical niave bourgeois Blairite Boomer stance on immigration and urban change. Not all change is for the better. Neither is all immigration "good".

He gave great hope to my grandparents living through this and for that I am eternally grateful

History has proven him wrong. Even the people in this own country hate him and pull down his statue. AH has the last laugh.

Their finest hour… who is their? Thanks

I think Empire is a shame!Keep your own contry!Do; not try to steel other peopels land!

The City is a wonderful place and I love to walk it as often as I can. A look upwards or a diversion down an alley way is always repaid with a point of interest.

52:47 Shoutout to the editors for the apt use of Aphex Twin’s #3.

As a 17 year old Scottish Sapper we where being driven past The Royal Albert bridge on a bus going to a firing range and I was tired, bored as hell and this thing looomed into view!. I shot up bolt upright and shouted "what the fuck is that?!". Even to a kid in 1996 it looked space age and "other". If IKB's creations ever become non functional they need to be preserved anyway, just to be gawked at by future generations. Jeremy nailed this in the way he does when he finally knuckles down and gets serious.

What a tragedy . A great inventor far beyond his time

This is the greatest man that ever walked the planet.....

He was never home but had three children??? Methinks Mary was possibly 'entertaining' gentleman callers 🤔

serious coppers,there.

i've got three words, long live brunel.

Britain civilised the world. That is why inferior countries hate us.

Come on, North One. Can’t we have this in sharper resolution? It’s been here a decade, it was made 22 years ago and this is some of the best Clarkson content there is. At least sell it to the ABC in Australia so l can actually see it. Failing that, would it hurt to add a higher-res version to UKposts? Don’t let it moulder away, that’s a discredit to everyone who worked so hard on it.

The Empire strikes back.

Absolutely he should be given the same as any King of England! No matter how much time has passed. This was awesome!

The Bristol bridge is a marvel of civil engineering to this day.

Where were these cutting-age brains during last Plan-demic? Thinning the herd they have right to trap between banks?

His life was a series of magnificent octopuses.

The most evil man ever

Thank you for not using our Heavenly Father God name in vain.

Stevie failed to mention the remembrancer.

I feel like all of England is a pretend fairytale land with princess and Kings doing a bunch of stuff that is meaningless but everyone pretends it is important. This video confirms that. What silliness.

Para azar mis bombones ay 😂

I do like the flaneurial walk the narrator takes on as he sees the big picture. With its themes of energy and its sources - fire, people, water - this series is elemental and inspiring. The clips with the dramatis personae of the time add wonderful observations. As for greatest city in the world, no doubt had Ackroyd been born in Paris, then it would have been Paris, with its revolutions and barricades and The Commune. Indeed his messages do chime with Emile Zola’s Rougon-Macquart realism. London here is raw and rapacious.

Sun spewing a x5.0 flare hitting saturn

That’s the way to describe London - elemental London. Thank God we have the scale and epic of London

greatest briton who was french

Noncence the 6 who died building the tunnel in London died , Brunel was never there just the old paper talk cover his back.

*Please turn on the automatic closed captions!* This is useful for many people, _besides the hearing impaired_---if children are playing in the backgroud; outside noise coming through an open window; listening late at night when others are asleep, and other reasons. *_PLEASE TURN ON AUTOMATIC CLOSED CAPTIONS._*

He vas a fantastic leder. ❤

The greatest Briton was half French just like Concorde

Jeremy never even mentioned Clifton rocks railway or that you can go inside the pillars of the Bristol suspension bridge. Great program as there is so much more Brunel has done that there was not time to show us. Greatest man of all time BRUNEL

This man is delusional

*Railways were to ship African resources to the UK, and no a single road was built by the British empire in Africa unless it was serving the colonisers. And if setting up extremely rudimentary so-called schools in an open space in a village to fool locals, is to you providing education to the locals, then you must be part of such a colonial mindset.*
