The Victorian age was characterised by a vast expansion of scientific and technical knowledge. A large number of Victorian inventions are still in daily use today. Others proved disastrous, and a few are just bizarre. This talk covers a range of well-known Victorian scientists and inventors, as well as some lost in obscurity.
