Fall asleep as we explore the funny history of London in the Victorian Era.
This was the 63-year period from 1837 to 1901 during the reign of Queen Victoria. It was a time of great growth and prosperity for the British Empire, but was also marked by a stark social class system. And as you'll discover tonight, London during the Victorian time period offers much to laugh about.
Why does every image from this era seems to be foggy? Why did people wear such funny looking clothes?
We'll discover this and much more tonight. So enjoy this bit of history, presented in a calming, funny fashion, and nod off with a few laughs along the way to dreamland.
This should not it be taken as an authoritative source of history. It's boring history, delivered in a satirical way that's soft and slow. Perfect to fall asleep with a smile on your face :)
