HOW DO THEY DO IT? PREMIERE

As the modern world becomes progressively automated and mechanised, we grow ever more removed from
knowing how things are made or done. ‘How Do They Do It?’ returns for a 12th series to uncover the miraculous feats of engineering which underpin life in the 21st century. We take for granted many items that make up the modern world but, from aeroplanes and scaffolding to waterproof clothing and cement, these items are often the products of highly sophisticated engineering and production processes. Our comfortable modern way of life relies on the problem-solving genius of engineers and the vision of industrial designers, constantly striving to make things faster, cheaper and better. Each episode takes viewers behind the scenes, peeling back the layers of industry to reveal the hidden stories behind our everyday lives.
