Tony Robinson explores the birth of the Industrial Revolution. He takes a 40-mile walk through the glorious Peak District, along the Derwent Valley, where the world's industrial revolution was born. Great Britain was a generally poor island that relied on agriculture and the wool trade. But, somehow, it became the powerhouse of the industry for the entire world and it all started in the Derwent Valley.
