What is Tony Robinson’s Museum of Us?
Tony Robinson’s Museum of Us is a More4 documentary series that follows communities who come together to uncover the hidden history of their own ‘ordinary’ streets. The programme is presented by actor, broadcaster and author Sir Tony Robinson, famous for playing Baldrick on Blackadder and for presenting history TV programmes including Time Team. In each episode, Sir Tony visits a street in Britain and leads a team of experts who help the residents design and create their own pop-up museum in just seven days. It’s a process that begins with the residents exploring their own personal connections to where they live, but grows to encompass how the stories of different streets and communities fit into Britain’s wider national history.
