- David Olusoga’s ‘Empire’ is a very fine piece of public history, although 3 episodes feels too few to do the subject full justice. Some outstanding segments but also quite a few gaps (Southern Africa, Egypt, Palestine, Pacific Islands, SE Asia, Hong Kong and of course Ireland). Second series needed?Nov 18, 2025 21:45
- For example, I want to know if the UK government really did consider ‘planting’ Zululand with the obstreperous Irish in 1879 (as imagined here by the Weekly Freeman)
