DOCUMENTARY: When Brunel's Ship Came Home
On: BBC 1 West (101) Date: Monday 12th July 2010 Time: 7:30 PM to 8:00 PM Documentary revealing the epic story of how the SS Great Britain, Brunel's iconic ship, was brought home to Bristol forty years ago.

When the ship eventually returned to Bristol, thousands of people lined the banks of the River Avon to welcome her home. The SS Great Britain is now a hugely successful visitor attraction.
