Top Comments of this video!! :3
I'm half welsh and live on the English/Wales boarder as my historic families have done for hundreds of years.
So the more I learn about this whole period of history stretching from pre Romana right up into the early modern, the more fascinated I am by the degrees of movement of people and things.
Thank you for this video. Very interesting.

My family is a mix of Scots and German (Celtic and Teutonic). I have been fascinated by Celtic culture since an aunt was able to trace the Scots side to the mid 900's, primarily by inheritance records, both oral and written. Rome so thoroughly distorted our view of them its hard to winnow out the truth. You did a stellar job with this video. Thank you.

Wikitongues is a very interesting youtube channel where you will get to hear many northwest European languages being spoken, such as Cornish, Manx, Shetlandic, Gaelic, Icelandic - and all the rest. There's also that guy Simon Roper who speaks Old English but he's often talking to people who speak other tongues and dialects ... like a guy in France speaking Gaulic for instance which was particularly interesting for me. I didn't know Gaulic was a thing.

Very interesting. What the programme, and many like them, often miss is the legacy of the Celts in Brittany, north-west Spain and northern Portugal where there is a very rich Celtic ancestry and culture. Who knew that? I would haved enjoyed this more seeing something of the Celtic history in these regions of Celtic influence, rather than this being so UK-centric.
