Armed with her microphone, Hester Abrams is on a mission to find out about the network of sewers below the River Thames in London. She meets structural engineer Roma Agrawal and civil engineer Sian Thomas, both of whom, in their different ways, are concerned with the waste produced by the capital's millions of inhabitants.

Ep 2: Hester Abrams meets construction expert Sandi Rhys Jones under Waterloo Bridge and hears the secret of this London landmark. She finds out what’s missing from the bridge, how Herbert Morrison got the gender wrong and what the bridge's story has to do with today’s women engineers.

It’s Women in Engineering Day and industry and schools are coming together to promote engineering as a career for girls. Hester Abrams and Philippa Goodrich are at Ford‘s Technical Centre in Essex to see school students getting a taste of life as a mechanical engineer.
Transformer is the podcast that explodes the myths about women and engineering, sharing the stories that engineers themselves aren't telling.
