Episode description

In 2002, the BBC polled the British public as to who they considered to be the 100 Greatest Britons of all time. Because this poll did not include a 17-year-old Ian Wilson nor a 19-year-old Tom Hemmings, the two men in question, now in their late 30s, set about to right this wrong by beginning their own countdown of who they consider the 100 Greatest Britons. This episode sees the hosts countdown from 100 to 51, whilst displaying their non-mutual contempt for explorers, sportspeople, and Margaret Thatcher.
