We look at economic and social progress and some of its obstacles, mainly self-inflicted obstacles. A Joseph Ardennes episode. We discuss new industries and coal. Newcastle is the new Peru. The limited rights of the poor within a context where even small farmers had a lot of rights under common law, but the necessity of paying for lawyers meant that these rights were not always available. The Cocaine affair is covered, which leads to a depression arising from reckless government policy. We go with Harry Potter, Ron and Hermione into the Forest of Dean, where Reverend Simon Peter preaches the equality of man.
