BBC Two

The life of Michael Faraday.
Dynamo is the life story of a supreme experimentalist: it relives some of the turning points in Faraday's remarkable career in science, and reconstructs the crucial work he carried out in the laboratory at the Royal Institution, which remains as it was when he worked there a hundred years ago.
With Ian Richardson as Michael Faraday, Freda Dowie as Sarah Faraday, Richard Bebb as Sir Humphry Davy
and Richard Hurndall, Nicholas Edmett, Cyril Shaps, Godfrey Kenton, Harold Reese
(Ian Richardson is a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company)
