Documentários em Geral: Genios Britanicos

 

A Grã-Bretanha pode ser apenas uma pequena ilha, mas seus grandes cientistas e inventores literalmente criaram o mundo moderno: desde a invenção da máquina a vapor, computadores e da internet, à descoberta da teoria da evolução e do átomo. Nesta série, em cinco partes, algumas figuras científicas da Grã-Bretanha - Stephen Hawking, Richard Dawkins, James Dyson, David Attenborough, Robert Winston, Paul Nurse, Jim Al-Khalili, Kathy Sykes e Olivia Judson - contam as histórias das pessoas por trás dessas inovações. De Isaac Newton a Frank Whittle, de James Watt a Isambard Kingdom Brunel e de Joseph Banks a Rosalind Franklin foram os que - por meio de sangue, suor e lágrimas - superaram todos os obstáculos em busca de respostas.
