Simon Jenkins: Who Exactly Are the Celts? image
Synopsis:

Since Scotland’s independence referendum and Brexit, the United Kingdom has felt far from united. Into this context, former editor of the Times Sir Simon Jenkins offers a timely analysis of Celtic identity, from its mysterious origins to its re-emergence today in the countries surrounding England.
 
The Celts: A Sceptical History is a cogent, no-holds-barred analysis of Anglo-Celtic relations, past, present and future. Today, he speaks to Sheena McDonald.
