Travelling by water was an important part of Viking culture as it transported them overseas to distant lands as both invaders and as settlers. Neil Oliver travels to Oslo to find out how the Vikings’ skills as shipbuilders and sailors enabled them to travel so far from their homeland. Here, a close look at the famous Oseburg Ship reveals the extraordinary craftsmanship of the Vikings. Out at sea, on a replica of a Viking boat, he learns how they used the sun to navigate their way across the open sea, and in Russia he discovers how the Vikings overcame rapids and ice to travel up its mighty rivers to trade in the East. He finds evidence of an ancient settlement in Iceland from where Viking explorers embarked on journeys even further West, to become the first Europeans to discover North America.

BBC Teach Class Clips - Why did Britain need a better road network? - Worksheet to support the BBC video In the early 1700s Britain’s road networks were simply not up to the task of moving the goods around the country which needed to be moved. Most of the roads were ancient, potholed and too small for modern business to be carried out. As Britain began to industrialise, this lack of transport made it very difficult to transport raw materials like coal or cotton. It was especially difficult for a businessman like Josiah Wedgwood, who reckoned that he sometimes lost one third of his shipments of pottery on Britain’s terrible roads. In 1706 Parliament passed the Turnpike Act which allowed private road builders to build new roads and charge tolls for using them. It was a first, important step towards the road transport network we know in Britain today. This short film is from the BBC series, Why the Industrial Revolution Happened Here.

BBC Teach - Class Clips - History KS3 & KS4/GCSE: The brains behind the Industrial Revolution. Worksheet to support the BBC documentary extract Coal and steam are easy factors to identify in the Industrial Revolution but brains were another key factor. Eminent scientists like Sir Isaac Newton and Robert Boyle had made important discoveries about gravity, and the behaviour of gases. These discoveries were harnessed and turned into business ideas by men like James Watt and his business partner Matthew Boulton. Britain’s political system aided these developments. Compared to most European states, the British Parliament held very little control over the economy, preferring to leave businessmen to run businesses rather than interfering. At the same time, there was very little censorship or control of ideas and publications, so ideas could be circulated and developed. In London, scientists met and discussed ideas at the Royal Society. In the Midlands, the Lunar Society did much the same. Many scientists were interested in knowledge for its own sake, but there were others who were able to turn these ideas into new technologies to make fortunes too.

Written to support the BBC Teach Olusoga extract BBC Teach > Secondary Resources > KS3 / GCSE History > Migration Search - BBC Teach - Class Clips - Black people in Britain during the Atlantic slave trade era In this short film, historian David Olusoga looks at the lives of Black people in Britain in the 1600s and 1700s. He looks at portraits in Ham House in Surrey, which feature images of young Black men and women as part of family groups of aristocrats. Olusoga talks to Professor James Walvin, who suggests that often these figures were invented and were part of the exoticism associated with international trade and enslavement. Walvin describes Black people in the UK as the ‘flotsam and jetsam’ of the slave trade, individuals who found themselves in the UK. Most were in domestic service. Some were sailors in transit in and out of the ports. By the late 18th century the ideas of the French Revolution were spreading and some Black people were starting to have a political impact on British society. These included Robert Wedderburn, who argued passionately for the emancipation of Black slaves and poor whites.
