Britain’s Great Cathedrals. A six part documentary series that looks at the architecture and tells the stories and characters behind six of Britain’s Cathedrals.
Sir Tony Robinson visits Britain’s great cathedrals, considered some of the most magnificent in the world, to investigate their turbulent history and the treasures that they house.
Dominating the landscape for centuries, ancient cathedrals and abbeys reflect Britain’s history through their architectural grandeur-stories of its kings and queens and the religious and social changes brought about by the English Reformation, as well as many other tales of intrigue, love, faith and conviction.
For centuries the great religious buildings of Great Britain have inspired and fascinated pilgrims and visitors from around the world. Britain is well-known for its churches and cathedrals; buildings of great architecture and religious grandeur that form many of our recognisable skylines. But these grand structures are also full of facts, histories and stories that you may not have been aware of.
Actor and history enthusiast Tony Robinson takes us on a journey around the United Kingdom, showing us his highlights while providing fascinating details and stories along the way. Britain’s Great Cathedrals take the viewer on a journey to look at the history and architecture, and learn about the characters who have made the cathedrals what they are today.
The series features interviews with historians and footage captured by drones filming the legendary facades and soaring interior spaces of York Minster, Canterbury, Salisbury, Durham, Liverpool and Winchester Cathedrals.

Part 6: Winchester Cathedral
Tony Robinson recounts the history of Winchester Cathedral, the longest medieval cathedral in northern Europe, and one of the Britain’s oldest cathedrals which stands as a monument to the wealth and power of the Normans. It has witnessed civil wars, religious battles and struggled with collapsing foundations. Cathedral is the burial place of novelist Jane Austen – though only four people attended her funeral and originally her plaque made no mention of her writing. Tony learns that Winchester’s bishops were among the richest, most influential and most badly behaved in the country and some were wealthier and more powerful than even England’s kings.
