Show transcript
The SS Great Britain was an iron-hulled steamship and was the world's largest ship at the time. Her role was to carry passengers across the Atlantic, and then to carry passengers to Australia. The passengers were divided into first-class and steerage; first-class paid more and had more luxurious cabins. Fresh food was taken but would be eaten at the start of the journey. First-class passengers had four meals with a huge choice; steerage passengers had to make do with simpler food.
