"Worst Jobs in History" ABC TV

[Ruskie]

Looks like a great new series starting on Sunday night, with Tony Robinson. ABC TV 7.30 (I think).
Got to be worth a look!

Caught most of it - somewhere along the way I was interrupted - He does like to go back a long way in history 

It is rather amazing what was achieved without all our modern technology - then again, as was said,  workplace health and safety was not an issue.

I enjoyed the programme. I WAS expecting worse jobs though. There are some really good bad ones to look forward to next week. Worth watching! A programme that is entertaining, educational and a bit quirky.
