Inside the Factory: Leather Boots

Series 6, episode 6

Gregg Wallace visits a factory tucked away in the village of Wollaston, Northamptonshire, that has been a key player in the boot making business for 120 years, producing boots for policemen and pop stars alike, and follows every step of production of a pair of Dr Martens original 1460 leather boots. Cherry Healey gets to grips with the speedy machines that use 350 metres of yarn to make a single pair of shoe laces, while historian Ruth Goodman reveals the story of a British shoemaker that elevated ladies' shoes from risqué music hall performers of the 19th century to gracing the feet of the Queen of England
