Hi Mr Alexander
Whether you are a journalist, an historian or an independant producer (and my own background is in historical documentary making - so I know the game) the very least you can do is to CHECK YOUR FACTS. Did it not occur to you that to be so wide of the mark only serves to undermine the credibility of your venture.
Some might opine that you yourself have been rather patronising...not least to the people of Ireland...
