The Fire of London

4 Extra Debut. Presenter Christopher Andrew asks what London would be like now if someone had extinguished the 1666 Pudding Lane blaze. From March 1999.

What if someone had a small blaze one Sunday morning in September 1666 in a bakery in London's Pudding Lane - and had simply thrown a damp cloth over it - instead of managing to destroy much of the 17th century City of London?

Series in which Professor Christopher Andrew and his guests re-write history by imagining how past events could have been different.

Producer: Ian Bell

First broadcast on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4 in 1999.
