    I was there that day. He gave the speech three times, and the first time it was the extras who blew it. He was so good, we forgot to yell and cheer and we just stood there looking at him stunned. Then there was a slowly reactive clapping, and then we went again.

      Rickman: “His mother was Welsh, and his paternal grandmother was Irish. Rickman would later say in April 2015, "I was talking to Sharleen Spiteri about being a Celt, how you smell each other out, because my mother's family is Welsh. There's not a lot of English blood in me."

      De Valera casted a long shadow on Irish politics. He was a major political figure from the 1910s onwards till the 1970s, more than half a century. What he did still has repercussions today. As do the actions of Michael Collins but he died young.
