18:02 holy crap I was there and remember that 😂😂😂

Who is the lady freeze framed at 37.29 ? Looks familiar.....

This is such revisionist nonsense: On a universal human level it's a shame poorly trained boys were killed but who put them there in the first place and in support of what kind of system of rule?! Also, does anyone seriously believe 'take no prisoners' means 'let them go'? Perhaps the Brits could've handled it all in a more nuanced way, but that would've been ahistorical. They had an Empire to maintain and Empire is based on the suppression of anyone trying to stand up for themselves.

Could only be Ireland . Snooker tournament held in a horse auction ring 😂😂😂

Iv red some books about Brendan, that a friend gave me to read that he had got. Wonderful to read. I saw Mrs brown's boys at the theatre in Coventry some year ago too. Brilliant thank you for your comedy programmes Brendan.and all your family in them.🎉🎉❤❤😊😊

Carroll relative here. Tiocfaidh ar la! Erin go bragh! Brits and yankees out of Ireland!

At my ripe old age of 60, the uprising and what the IRA was in 1916 compared to the '70s and beyond always used to confuse me. And MRS BROWN made it so understandable and relatable?!? Hats off to Brendan O'Carroll🫡🫡 this was an amazing program

Very well done informative better insight into pH pearse the leader of 1916 Easter rising

What a shameful episode for the british establishment. Cymru rhydd!

Why did the British put them all together? Seems a strange decision. There could only be one outcome of that. 😮

I met Sir Terry a few times as a young kid , at the Terry Wogan Golf Classic in Dun Laoghaire Golf club Dublin Ireland in the 80s . My dad was a member there. He was a lovely bloke . Signed tons of autographs, posed for a ton of photos

This is brilliant.Watch Apres Match election 82'.It really is Irish comedy at it's best. 🇮🇪

Sadly Netanyahu of Gaza has taken a whole leaf out of General Maxwell's Rubrics and Political meme.

Medieval Mentality, Modern Weaponry.

Brilliant brilliant brilliant. Very well done.

Can’t believe this is now FIFTY years old! 😮

I'm half Irish my family came over to Britain when the potatoes famine I love ❤ Mrs brown boys legend

Morning Ireland wasn't on in 1982

The oddest bit was the comparison with islamic jihadists. Their conception of martyrdom is different, self-immolation Edit: "not" martyrdom, and Patrick Henry Pearse died through execution (He was obviously willing to die through warfare which he considered as a soldier for Ireland. Maybe perverse but certainly not cultish, the Rising was done deliberately not like an insurgency and failed (Although with my limited knowledge I think it could have won if the orders were not rescinded and the Castle and other approaches defended.) yet he is portrayed here as a lunatic. Bear in mind too that there were plenty of non-"culters" in the Rising.). On the other hand I happen to agree on the other points, it was British over-reaction more than anything that sealed it, in fact I do not even see how the executions are excessive (They tried to over-throw the government, what else would you do?). A pardon would have been politically sensible and it is definitely true that the rebellion was really unpopular. Try to square what I wrote with the fact I am a Monarchist and an Irish Nationalist.

Bruce Forsythe had so much love for Sammy Davis Jr

I have studied European history for years and just recently started to learn about Irish history. Very well done documentary, I hope Brendan will do more documentaries like this.

😁Funny, but true anecdote from 1969/70 when Prof Michael O'Kelly (UCC Archaeology Dept) was preeminent at New Grange. I was not directly involved in this innocent fun. Archaeology Students from UCC were volunteering at the site during Summer Tourist Season, acting as tour guides, when it was getting very late but visitors were disinclined to remove themselves. One student feigned alarm saying to the other student 'was that crack in the ceiling there this morning'? (it had been there millennia) which instantly got the attention of the tardy visitors. 'No', said the other student, at which the visitors swiftly evacuated the monument and the volunteers were able to lock up and leave. 🤣

Well done! I absolutely enjoyed viewing this documentary! Sammy will forever continue to live on-he is the blueprint of a remarkable and timeless star!🎩🎶🎙

Farmers league man city all the Way 😂

I so want to visit Ireland and meet Brendan O'Connell ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Last Christmas I planned to see Newgrange, but the gates were closed on the day after Christmas. So i hope to see it another time again with more luck.....

I love this however, with it just me or were the audio & him speaking out of sync?

What I don't understand is why not one of the 1916 leaders ran for election before starting a rebellion. The case for a republic - and the case for achieving it by any means necessary - was never put before the people. The case for home rule was put to the people by the IPP and won an overwhelming mandate. The rebels should have done the same, if only to establish there was widespread backing for extreme actions.

I have so much more respect for Mr. O'Carroll and his family

Interestingt he Brits talk about the cult of blood sacrifice. Don't they have their own? The Somme? Rememberance day? Battle of Britain? And so many more. What about that fella who charged an Argie machine gun nest during the falklands...no blood sacrifice there nah?

Brilliant! Thank you! Sammy was an enigma that will never be again.

So so sad time, so much lost, but forgotten children innocents yes there should be some sort of a remembrance Day for these lost souls, this is an awakening we should not forget☘️🙏🕊️

I love how Gary Barlow says ," deepest respect for that Man." So different and emocional. Not taking anything away from all the other great people in the trubutes ❤ Oh but Chris Evans' voice just holding it together at the end reading the letter out. And the Brighouse and Rsstrick Band to finish. Wonderful ❤

In fairness while Portillo is a bit of a wally, at least he tried. As an Irishman, west Brit revisionists like Kevin Liars et al are far more annoying.
