Description

Collection of documentaries looking into the history of three modern wonders of the World. The 'Eiffel Tower' was meant to be a temporary exhibit, a demonstration of French engineering acumen at the Paris World Fair. But to Parisians, the tower, designed by the brash, Gustave Eiffel, came to stand for much more. This is the monumental tale of the graceful steel sculpture that sends at almost 1,000 feet. The 'Tower Bridge' was built at the same time as the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower and quickly became an icon of its nation, a symbol of industrial might and technological daring combined with a deep sense of tradition. This programme ventures from the Victorian era to the present day to tell the complete story of this famous bridge. More than 50 years after its construction the 'Golden Gate Bridge' is still regarded as one of the world's great engineering marvels. Against all odds, it took 25 million man-hours and 80,000 miles of cable to complete and has become one of the greatest symbols of America. This is the awe-inspiring story of the Golden Gate Bridge.
