Dan Snow gets down and dirty in the murky histories of London, Paris and New York, exploring their filthy histories from the bottom up.
Imagine having to dodge the contents of emptied bedpans or step over rotting corpses on the way to work. That was a reality of city life before technology, public policy, and public values began to focus on the effects of poor sanitation.
In this immersive three-part series, sophisticated computer animation and in-depth scholarship bring history’s struggles with urban filth vividly to life. The case studies: medieval London, 18th-century Paris, and New York City during its most intense phase of European immigration.
Taking the travelogue in a whole new direction – with thought-provoking stunts, historical accounts and state-of-the-art CGI – it excavates the murky past in gruesome detail during defining periods in history. You’ll find out how each of these modern capitals was forged in the muck of the past, emerging from ‘filthy cities’ into three of the world’s model metropolises.

Part 2: Revolutionary Paris
Just over 200 years ago, Paris was one of the dirtiest cities in Europe. How did that suffocating urban environment give way to what we now know as the City of Light? This program sifts through the story of the French Revolution in the context of urban filth and its close link to social injustice.
Depicting the settings in which thousands of Parisians toiled in toxic industries and suffered grotesque poverty and disease, the film profiles one of the foulest jobs in history-tanning leather-and comes face-to-face with the ultimate killing machine, the guillotine, which exhausted the city’s cemeteries during the Reign of Terror.
A visit to Marie Antoinette’s private rooms at the glittering palace of Versailles offers further insight into the deep-rooted inequality that helped spark a bloody, transformative revolution.
