In this episode Tony embarks upon a journey to find out just what it takes to make a difference. Time travelling to the first century A.D. in Britain, Tony tells how a Celtic Queen fought back Roman invaders. He visits 19th century New Zealand, to understand the women who struggled and won the right to be heard. Tony lands in the Victorian Goldfields to witness a pivotal moment in Australian history where democracy was born. He also meets a bunch of Melbournians who took to the streets in 1969, shouting expletives to protest against restrictive censorship laws. In the 1790s, Tony tracks down the indigenous warrior and his band of resistance fighters, who waged a guerrilla war in the early days of colonial Australia. Whether they fought for a country, a people, or an idea, these remarkable men and women changed history by challenging authority and fighting oppression. See less
