Britain has had an impact on the world way beyond its size.

But it hasn't always been that way.

Long, long before the British had established their won worldwide empire, they were a far-flung part of someone else's empire - The Romans.

The story of Britain begins even further back than that...

To a time when Britain was just part of a north European plain with tribes migrating backwards and forwards across Doggerland, now submerged beneath the North Sea.

When the last Ice Age ended, the sea levels rose and Britain became an island.

This episode is the story of those early years; of Stonehenge, Iron-Age Hillforts, Druids and Celts.

And then in 55BC a Roman general with huge ambitions landed upon the shores of the Island on the Edge of the World and history would never be the same again...
