A Team Special tonight (17th Nov 2012) @ 7pm on the More4 channel.

Tony Robinson and the team probe the disastrous east London launch of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's revolutionary vessel the SS Great Eastern 150 years ago.

SS Great Britain is also likely to get a mention somewhere..

A weekly build of the Great Eastern would be splendid, especially, if it were RC too!

Here`s my GE on sailing trials at New Brighton with BBC Coast programme team


Any chance?

The SS Great Britain would be a more likely candidiate than the Eastern, simply because it is better known and still exists.

Nice Eastern by the way Cool

Hi Mr T

Great Britain would also be an excellent choice and would be popular with the tourists?
I visited The Great Britain in about 1984 and it was a sorry sight then!
