- David is off to meet his cousin Barry to learn more about the infamous 1972 band march against internment known as Bloody Sunday. Barry was in fact an attendee of the march.
Famous for playing the time-traveller Dr Who, David Tennant has decided to abandon the Tardis and investigate his own history.
David was born in Bathgate, a post-industrial town between Glasgow and Edinburgh, in 1971. His father, Alexander McDonald, is a minister in the Church of Scotland. David changed his second name, as many actors do. Tennant being inspired by The Pet Shop Boy's Neil Tennant.
Beginning his historical investigations by focusing on his father's side of the family, David quickly discovered that the paper trail goes cold relatively early on. This means David's hope of tracing his family back to the time of the clans would take a huge amount of research, so he instead turned his attention to the ancestry of his maternal grandfather, Archie McLeod.

1 Para were the greatest recruiting sergeant the IRA ever had. Ballymurphy, Magilligan Strand and Bloody Sunday drove young men into the IRA.
The description should say 'banned march', not 'band march', that is such a lazy mistake.
In the notes: it was a 'banned' march, not 'band'.
The Barry speaking is my Dad's cousin.

The Barry speaking is my Granda

Hi, we're related! I'm Eddie McLaughlin. My Dad was Desmond, Son of Charlie. Originally from Fahan, Donegal; later in Derry and then Belfast.
Unfortunately the audible software has not yet got homonyms in the English language worked out.
David will always be The Doctor!

Lies again? Sunday Bell
Doctor who is not more important than lives lost during the troubles.
Tom Baker was far better, so was Jon Pertwee.
Internment came later. This was a march for civil rights.
Internment started in 1971. Bloody Sunday was 72
My late husband Gregory Wild was there and he said the same. He wouldn't join a march until he was finally able to finish the march to the Guildhall and the Saville Report
I like the song Sunday bloody Sunday
This is such a butchered account from the producers what actually happened, including the actual reason for the march
What was the march about? Im from singapore so not farmiliar with Irish history or politics tho I have heard of the IRA bombings etc.
How is it butchered? The march was a protest against internment without trial of Catholic civilians suspected of being in paramilitaries, then when it comes to the actual act of the killings they stick to the objective facts (1 Para started shooting, 26 civilians shot and 14 dead). Anything beyond that is difficult to say with certainty isn't it, they've got a real eyewitness on talking about it I reckon he knows more than you.
@@ChairmanRingo 14 unarmed civilians murdered by the state, fixed it for you.
Cold hard truth 14 innocent Irish Roman Catholics
It reminds me of our Kent State event in 1970. Four were killed and nine wounded.
great
It was a march for civil rights .. not a march against internment.
It was a march against internment, which was against civil rights
He says "the action was a hundred yards away" as if it's far. Jeez. The horror.

David's cousin Barry looks shockingly like my dad.
Ahaha that’s my Granda
When he found out his family followed Dr Ian Paisley he said Doctor who ?
