First shown on the BBC in 1995, the 26 parts of one hour deal with the socio-economic, political, and cultural movements that shaped the 20th century.

A departure from other documentaries that observe history as the actions of great men, People's Century tells the century through interviews with people from all walks. It documents significant times with footage events, combined with personal photographs.
