Two hundred years of technology have transformed how we talk to each other, share our lives and learn about the world. On Saturday 25 October, the Science Museum in London opens Information Age: Six Networks That Changed Our World, a new permanent gallery of more than 800 objects that tell the story of the information revolution.
To mark the event, from Monday to Friday this week, we are hosting five Science Museum videos that reveal some of the greatest breakthroughs in the communications era.
We start with The Cable That Changed Our World, Daniel Gooch's extraordinary 1860s expedition to lay a cable across the Atlantic.
