- Soon it will be fifty years since 14 innocent men and boys where murdered by the british army in Derry City in 1972. This film looks at this slaughter from the perspective of today and asks what lessons have been learned. Filmed and directed by Gavin Patton and presented by historian Seamus Breslin
Outstanding well done all involved in the makin of this 👏... A day the people of derry will never forget its mad to think its the 50th anniversary.....
Good man thanks.
Jack Chapman was the army veteran who lived in the flat in Glenfada pk; ,he was married to May Murray and he gave a great account of the slaughter of the innocent people by the Paras to Mr Taylor. Mr Chapman was a real gentleman and his wife May was a lovely woman. God rest them all.
Thanks Gina.
Well done brilliantly filmed and presented so sad.... have no more words TBH

Falklands were easy
Appreciate this and very difficult to watch. Thank you for the aerials to put this in perspective. The music also is perfect.
Just to add Peter Taylor is one of the best journalists I've ever met and worked with!!! I highly recommend you all watch his documentaries on the Troubles, 1st class they are
Thank you so much Seamus for every single bit of detail & the knowledge that you have shared in this video especially all the stories you shared and how you give a little bit more information on a person ect. Your fantastic in the way you carry yourself when speaking and explaining or summarising stuff up. Surprised to hear what the Paras also did on the Shankill Road. Appreciate that you have showed exactly the spot where the innocent vitamins where killed and how it all unfolded. Thank U ❤️
Thanks for watching Jake.
Excellent information,rip to the poor souls,god bless them,from Dublin,Ireland🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️☘️☘️☘️
Similar to the poor souls murdered in the Omagh bomb, Enniskillen bomb, La Mon House bomb, or the poor souls murdered in church at Darkley or the poor souls murdered at Kingsmill.
The IRA used them as meat shields... cowards .
And they shot at the brits first so....
@@Drifty40 yes agreed ,all poor souls,,. But they didn't die from the very people who were meant to be protecting them!.. British people think Derry people are a part of the uk as anyone ,... So how would the world react if British soldiers opened fire on black lives matter protesters in London ????.sure it's all British citizens no?…..... Or does Irish Catholic lives not matter ???
Well done well said ❤
Excellent! Well done to everyone involved in the making of this!
A great educational piece. Thank you.
Well done Seamus. Still screws me up. Hope we meet up again, someday. Best wishes to you & your family.
Very important video.. well done in making it......
Ireland unfree shall never be at peace. God bless Ireland 🇮🇪
Irelands owned by the European Union these days instead.
Don't be stupid Ireland is free unless you count it being run by the European Union.

It's an American catchphrase.
Has nothing to do with you...
We are northern Ireland 🇬🇧
Mind your own business
A very informative and well presented video with a personal touch to the very sad history. I’m an American who was very involved with Civil Rights in this country and always hoped that those protesting for equal rights and fair treatment might have worked there the way it did in the US, but the brutality of the forces both military and police pushed it past the edge of non-violent struggle in my opinion. We too experienced brutality and death but not on the same scale and the desire, if not need to defend the protestors made violence almost necessary. Very, very sad. I do not blame the soldiers whose commanders whipped up an atmosphere of kill or be killed without reservation, yet more personal judgment and responsibility on each soldier’s part would have saved lives
Great tour well done 👏 ☘
Thanks Paulie. Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm ashamed to say it I've never been to derry Town I've been all over this island I've been in South derry even looked over at the town from a hill In donegal.. I need to go there an soon. 🇮🇪💚
There was no such thing as the killing zone
A lot of what he speaks is rubbish
There was bad on both sides
Mostly on the IRA side
My cousin served in Northern Ireland in the 80s he wasn't a Para. I recall him talking to my mam once and told her he'd had a fight with a copper over there and he'd have to watch his back especially when off duty. Him and his mates hated the coppers over there and thought they stoked trouble up and the squaddies had to sort it out. He hated going over there as like a lot of people in Manchester we've got Irish lineage and he thought a lot of the treatment was unfair. I went to Londonderry/Derry a few years ago and what struck me is how small it is? Its like say a suburb of Manchester like Oldham? Maybe smaller,(a lot nicer!) the walls reminded me of Chester a bit. The people are really friendly as they are in Belfast but Derry really was memorable and I really liked it. Maybe seeing it on TV it looks bigger? The old flats look like the old Hulme bullring in Manchester but they'd been demolished by the time I went there. I'm definitely going to go back and maybe watch a football match. What would be perfect would be if City played Derry City in a pre season friendly!! Great Videos Seamus 📹 take care and HNY .....
Thanks for watching and your story was very interesting.
Your story about the cop sounds a little untrue. Security forces were a unit.
@@Drifty40 exactly they were all the same. They looked after each other. I don’t understand his story ether
@@GavinPattonFilms interesting and confusing.?
great tour seamus
Good documentation, but english subtitles would be helpful to understand all, thanks. ❤
Love from The Netherlands....Ireland my Ireland....
Any details on the IRA firing on the soldiers? Who fired the first shots ?
Widely believed to have been a certain Mr McGuinness.
Pray for neil mcmonagle
gtreat vid seamus
Military stormtroops policing a foreign feral civil population which hates them, & is at the same time rabidly out for its neighbours' blood, is a bad combination.
Weren’t the paras told NOT to fight a running battle into the bogside? Which is exactly what they did
Animals they tried to do what Hitler did to keep the people down .RIP never be forgotten
And still no justice.
Just the other day, I listened to a documentary about the gang warfare between Crips and Bloods in a few square miles worth of Los Angeles. That state of war ( how else to describe it?) has killed more people than The Troubles. The American response to Los Angeles ( and every other Democrat run city) has been to keep the police ( much less the army) out of it. That is jolly nice for the lovely , compassionate, egalitarian, non judgemental etc etc etc leftist politicians. Nice clean hands. Lovely clear consciences. In Britain meanwhile? We took the view that people in NI of whatever creed or colour are OUR people. That’s what it says on their passports. So. Armed gangs in the 1970’s were doing Los Angeles gangster things to our people. War ensued between HM Govt and the armed gangs. British soldiers , not just Paras, on several occasions, behaved in a manner not entirely unlike one more sectarian death squad. Yes. That happened. That was bound to happen. Every British citizen on the mainland has that on our conscience. Various other things were less than ideal from a mainland perspective. Huge expense, the lives of our soldiers and policemen , that sort of thing. Billions of £s, rivers of blood, depths of shame, partial surrender to gangsters at the end of it, the utter contempt of everybody else in the world at our expense. We could have said “leave them to it, let them sort it out by themselves”. But we did not. OUR people you see? Being British ( including Catholic and Republican and British) MEANS something see? Go ask people in Los Angeles about the alternative.

I'm sorry your wrong about the loyalists on the Shankill there are a lot off Parachute Regiment flags flying on lamppost and every loyalist i know support soldier f. Having said that i do think it was wrong what the paras did.
Republican side only .get the paras to tell us who really fired first .namely the bogside butcher Martin McGuiness
Yes because you could believe what they say..
Sad day shouls never of happened...dont see many memorials for the murdered soldiers and civilians
