Historic correction: on their visit to Dublin, Mary brought the TV crew to our parents' grave in Glasnevin Cemetery, just fifty metres from Michael Collins, - and in the middle of the 1916 commemorations. It was natural for the team to look for a connection between our Dad (exactly 19 years old when the War of Independence broke out) and Collins, and, in consequence, inferred a more vigorous role in the rebellion than facts actually warrant.
