More4 and Tony Robinson put Bedminster 'on the map' in new series

A new docuseries has put Bedminster on the map - and Bristolians have enjoyed the show's celebration of their local history. The first episode in Tony Robinson's Museum of Us on More4 delved into the history of Hebron Road.

Each week, the series takes a stroll along a different street in Britain, challenging residents to explore the history of their homes, collecting stories from generations of residents who lived there, before showcasing all they have learned in a specially curated museum. The first episode aired tonight (October 17) and residents of Hebron Road in South Bristol dived deep into their pasts.

Tony Robinson returned to his city in the very first episode of the new series. The episode explored previous residents' links to chocolate factories - including 50-year-old chocolate - and tobacco factories as part of Bristol's industrial past.
