| Summary |
Presented by Jeremy Paxman, this five-part series tells the story of the British Empire and its complex effects on the modern world. Tonight's episode recounts the extraordinary story of how a desire for conquest became a mission to improve the rest of mankind, especially in 'darkest' Africa - and how that mission shaded into an unquestioning belief that Britain could - and should - rule the world.
