John Sergeant continues his journey around Britain, tracing the footsteps of pioneer photographer Francis Frith and his team, who took thousands of photographs documenting the rapidly changing cityscapes and landscapes of 19th-century Britain.

Using the old photographs as his guide, John visits the remains of Frith's home in Reigate and travels south to investigate the smugglers' haunts of medieval Rye, before finding out where the riflemen of the Victorian British army learnt their skills. To complete his travels, John also takes a photograph to capture the modern setting of the Frith pictures. Show less
