The Scots who fought Franco (2009)

100%

Over 500 Scots fought in the Spanish Civil War which devastated Spain 70 years ago. Emotions and memories of this extraordinary conflict are still alive and poignant. This two-part documentary series, narrated by actor David Hayman, remembers the major conflict through unseen, unique archive interviews with Scots who joined the International Brigade, or Brigaders as they are known.

The documentary was inspired by Daniel Gray's book, 'Homage to Caledonia: Scotland and the Spanish Civil War', and he further contributed by helping write and research the documentary. So, here's his website - https://danielgraywriter.com
