Episode 2

The Edwardian era saw the creation of mass leisure, the suffrage movement, and the beginnings of world war. Life in Edwardian Britain wasn't all fun and games. The Siege of Sydney Street, in East London in 1911, is the perhaps the first terrorist attack ever caught on film. Remarkably, a young Winston Churchill then Home Secretary can be seen controversially directing operations just yards away from the gunfire.
