How can we harness water power to... move water? Can water really create electricity? And does (wheel) size really matter? Three parts science, one part history, join me as I teach you everything about waterwheels you never realised you needed to know. Very handy for physics teachers, students and off-grid living enthusiasts. Huge thanks to the folks at Manx heritage for letting us film at their wonderful Laxey Wheel.

In other words, all the stuff that keeps me up at night!
