It is 1982 and twins Beth and Mike aged 14 and brother Jake 12¿ are itching to start their 15 visits to Victorian times, following their exciting and dangerous visits to both the 'Puritan' and 'Georgian' eras. The gift of time travel left to them by Great Uncle Seddie. Their great uncles and great aunt visited same eras when young back in early 1900s.
They have now, Sooty, a small black dog unexpectedly brought back from the Georgian period adventures and have hidden him from their parents.
The Victorian's steam engines and new road surfaces, makes travel easier as they see the troubles that befall the poor, with hiring fairs and the down trodden pottery workers. The trio take pity on a sweep's boy they saw being abused by his cruel master while at the 'Grand Fair' with its attractions. The youngsters come to the aid of a mother whose babies are being sold by a baby minder.
They continue searching as to what happened to their Great Uncle James who they meet and left back in Georgian times.
