The Factory Next Door

10:30 AM GMT on November 17, 2024

    A gem of a series where journalist Steve Duke visits the factories that make some of the most successful products in Britain today. Why? Well not only are the history of everyday products rather fascinating, but according to Duke, “if we don't champion the skills on our doorstep, we risk losing them.”
