The Petrol Age

A four part series, fronted by Paul McGann, The Petrol Age tells the absorbing story of British motoring across the ages, through the iconic cars and incredible personalities that helped establish the UK as a major driving force in global motoring. Each of the four programmes will focus on one aspect of British motoring: Speed; Glamour; Icons and Trail Blazers. In each, presenter Paul McGann will explore a key story that ties in with the episodes’ central theme, as well as creating a wider picture for the viewer via archive footage, visits to some of the nations’ most impressive motoring museums, and interviews.
