- Synopsis:
- Beginning with the earliest known human burial in Western Europe, the 'Red Lady of Paviland', and ending with Wales' own government, this is an authoritative popular history of Wales. It's a journey through Viking, Saxon and Norman invasions, Hywel Dda's united Wales, Owain Glyndwr's rebellion, the heart of the Tudor court, coal mines, Welsh language campaigns and present day devolution. From the rich culture of medieval Wales to the cutting-edge of innovation, this six part series examines issues of power, war and industry. Bitter battles and economic booms forge a vibrant nation with a unique history, culture and identity.
