James Burke's Connections

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

The Wheel of Fortune
James Burke looks at 2,000 years of human ingenuity, in the fifth of ten historical detective stories. This week he asks: ' What's the connection between the Caliph of Baghdad's stomach-ache and medieval Nuremberg, or between steel clocksprings and gingerbread men - and what does that connection do to our working day? '
