Charles Darwin - Darwin's Dangerous Idea, Part 7

The beginning of this clip, from "Darwin's Dangerous Idea," relates current research to Darwin's ideas.  The Darwin family story begins, again, at 08:44.

It is 1850, and Charles Darwin is with his family at Down House - their home in Kent.  Annie, the Darwin's ten-year-old daughter, is very interested in her father's work and spends time with him looking into a microscope and examining specimen. 

A calamity, involving this beloved child, is about to descend upon the Darwin family.
