The following video explores episode one of a documentary series originally aired on BBC One looking at megacities.

With cross-curricular links to geography and economics, it follows Andrew Marr as he visits a number of megacities around the world including London and Dhaka. Marr examines how they are adapting to the pressures of housing, crime and employment.

A useful classroom video or extension activity for Families and Households (demography), Crime and Deviance and Global Development.
