Children from different parts of England present their lives, enthusiasms and how they see themselves. Martha lives near the Ironbridge Gorge Museum in Shropshire and goes there to act out being a Victorian at weekends. She compares Victorian schooling with her own primary school. Gabriel is half Polish and lives in Chislehurst, Kent. After school, he enjoys learning Polish and doing traditional Polish dancing. He talks about his family history with his grandparents. Millie describes what it's like to live in a co-housing community in the Suffolk countryside, and go to a Quaker school. She feels that experiencing different ways of living affects the kind of person you become.
