Explorer and expedition leader Paul Rose goes on a non-stop, 30 minute tour of the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester.

Powered machinery, factories, discovering the atom and splitting it, our national network of trains and electricity, even standardised time - all of these inventions and discoveries originate in Manchester. The Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester proudly displays it all in buildings that are themselves equally as interesting, such as the oldest passenger railway station in the world.

Paul started life as a tool-making apprentice in a car factory so has a natural fascination for machinery, but he also reveals the human stories that made our world what it is today - including the man who experimented on his servant and went on to prove the most fundamental law of nature.
