Top Comments of this video!! :3
While I am just about to enjoy this surely interesting episode, as an Irish person, I must coreect the opening words that suggest when St Patrick arrived we were a people several centuries old...it is well accepted that the pre celts were here for many thousands of years...the Newgrange, Knowth and Dowth burial chambers are dated 5,200 years ago, predating Stonehenge, but built by the same peoples!.
However we shall hack on and welcome this surely otherwise well researched and well presented work.
Happy St. Patrick's to ye all..;)

The sequence around 40:00 is lovely to listen to. This man has a wonderful voice and is a good storyteller.

If I'm remembering correctly, in the book How the Irish Saved Civilization, the author states that Patrick was a Coptic Christian, influenced by the commerce between Ireland and Egypt. It was not until the Roman Catholic bishops of England got ahold of him and essentially held him captive, that he finally swore allegiance to the Pope or at least to Roman Catholicism.

Anybody else see the irony in a company called Cromwell doing an Irish doc?
