I couldn't let this one slide past without a flush

Wednesday marks the 100th anniversary of the death of Thomas Crapper, the man who revolutionised the flushing lavatory.

The company he founded still exists, being run from a country estate in Warwickshire.

It is owned by a businessman who sold his vintage car collection to stop the company going under.

Phil Mackie went to meet Simon Kirby and look behind the scenes at Thomas Crapper & Co.

Go there to see the video :-)

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. - Steven Weinberg, 1999
