The following is on the description of the documentary,

The threshold of a new millennium is an ideal point to review the recent past of Bradford and to examine what effect the last hundred years have had on its citizens. Who could have imagined, as the people of Bradford prepared to celebrate the dawn of the 20th Century, the momentous changes about to take place in industry and commerce , living and working conditions, sport and entertainment.
