We look back in time with this historical lesson all about the Victorians. Ben Shires and Mr Smith lead us through an investigation into the differences in the way we live our lives in comparison to the 1800s.

Helping out are the cast of new CBBC show Dodger, which follows the lives of kids growing up in this era. We also explore how the past is discovered through various sources, and what they tell us, with historian Olivette Otele.

And there is a live link-up with a school celebrating its Victorian history, with Newsround reporter Shanequa Gayle. Show less
