The Remarkable & Untold History Of The Celts (History Documentary)

Original Description
In this landmark film, the anthropologist RICHARD RUDGLEY explores the history of the Celtic world and reveals the Celtic tradition to be a crucial part of what makes a Brit a True Brit. From Germany to the far west of Ireland, by way of Gaul, Pictish Scotland and England under the Roman occupation, Rudgley takes a 5,000-mile journey of discovery that starts around 1,000 BC and ends in the present day. He uncovers remarkable archaeological evidence that puts a brand new light on the savagery and civilisation of an often misunderstood European culture. The film argues that being 'Celtic' is not about blood, tribe, red hair, folk music or believing in the little people. Neither is it about being out of touch and trampled underfoot. It is not even exclusively about the British Isles. The Celts' history is one of a population pushed to the margins by later waves of invasion. Theirs is a tradition that is the root of an older Briton: a golden thread that has been intertwined within the heart of Europe for thousands of years, a Celtic 'magic' that is still there for the taking, offering us a basis for a new Europe.
