Explore how science and technology completely transformed 1950s Britain, taking it from the bleakness of post-war austerity to an era of modern affluence and optimism. Going into the revolution that started in the home, from the rise of chemical fertilizers like "National Grow" replacing horse manure in the garden, to the creation of toxic-but-popular pesticides. We uncover the social impact of new inventions, including the iconic Triumph Thunderbird superbike and the first affordable family cars, which provided a taste of freedom and fueled the new British holiday obsession, despite the popular use of baby oil as suntan lotion.
