Stephen Smith goes squelching through sewers in the watery underworld below London and finds clues to the troubles affecting our water companies today.
With water companies reeling from criticism over sewage discharge and rising bills, Stephen Smith squelches through London's watery underworld.
'Descending into London's Victorian sewers', Stephen says, 'is like spelunking through the layers of the city's history, and reminds you that problems over water and sanitation have been the norm rather than an aberration' for centuries.
