New Elizabethans with Andrew Marr - Episode Guide

Andrew Marr examines the way in which Britain went from a rigid, class-obsessed society in the 1950s toward a more liberal, inclusive, egalitarian society in the latter part of the Queen's reign.

Andrew Marr explores how Britain since 1952 has coped with the loss of empire, American cultural and political hegemony, and the rise of a consolidated European superstate.

In the final episode, Andrew looks at one of the greatest challenges faced by modern Elizabethans: the loss of Britain's manufacturing heartlands and the surprising impact it has had on the state of the nation.

To tell this story, he selects a rich cast of characters who have - in his estimation - responded to the challenges and found ingenious ways of adapting to the changing industrial landscape.
