Product Information
This release brings together all seven episodes of Sky Atlantic's landmark history series THE BRITISH. Part-drama, part-documentary, the series covers 2,000 years of British and Irish history, through astonishing CGI recreations, compelling live action and vox pops from famous Brits such as Tracey Emin, Helen Mirren, Ben Kingsley and Robert Winston. From the Roman invasion up to the invention of the television, THE BRITISH tells both epic and seemingly modest stories of the human achievement, invention and heroism.Product Identifiers
