I just love The Listening Project by BBC Radio 4. Very natural territory for digital storytellers, the project is about capturing the nation in conversation to build a unique picture of our lives today and preserve it for future generations.

BBC Two - Britain’s First Photo Album
I caught the first episode of this on catch-up last night. I wasn’t aware of it’s existence, I just stumbled upon it whilst trawling the iplayer for something halfway decent to watch.
Now, it’s not the best programme in the world, but it is rather sweet. We get to learn about Frith’s amazing photographs, which so thoroughly documented real life in Victorian Britain, and that’s more than enough to content me!
It’s well worth a watch for anyone interested in social history, early and documentary photography, Francis Frith, Victoriana and Britain’s changing landscapes.
