Across a period of eight centuries, pioneering journalist Willoughby and Son chart the progress of a community caught inextricably at the heart of national events. This is the story of Portsmouth, from its inception in 1194 to now, the dawning of the 21st century...it is a night some 800 years in the making. Using the latest audio-visual effects multi-media technology and production techniques, the historic Anglican Cathedral in Old Portsmouth is transformed into a stunning and uniquely appropriate venue for this exploration of a city transported through the years on a tide of war and controversy; a city at the very heart of a seafaring nation. Featuring a wealth of original photographs, film footage and artwork, renowned local author Graham Hurley's powerful re-telling of Portsmouth's history will provide a lasting testament to its vibrant community.
