- Amanda Redman revisits the house in which her ancestors used to live, it turns out her family were poor catholic potato farmers... it's a long way off from Doneraile Court, which she had previously thought to be her ancestral home.
Amanda Redman is an English actress, perhaps best known for her role as Sandra Pullman in the BBC One series New Tricks. Amanda's father died in 1980, when Amanda was in her mid-teens and since then she has never felt able to ask her mother about her family's past. The little information she did pick up while growing up was based only on gossip and hearsay. There were rumours of illegitimacy in the family, an abusive grandfather and mysterious uncles.

Amanda Redman = Gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Remrmber there was no famine in Ireland. It was English policy to etnically cleanse Ireland of the Irish. The available food was shipped under guard from the Irish ports to Britain.
@K L Let's not forget that British ministers have threatened starving Ireland as leverage in the Brexit talks.
There's one problem. You talk about the English/British as if their murdering and theft was a thing of the past, but I have a question for you.
Why does Ireland not have a National day of Independence?
Don't say the Easter Rising celebration, we lost that one. Or maybe you'll say the War of Independence? Afraid not, we lost that one too. You cannot get Independence when the fight is amongst the invaded natives. The English Treaty was foisted on us, and those who fought against it were killed and lost their cause. Not so! you say?
Who wrote the Government of Ireland Act 1920? Answer, King George V. Have you ever read it? No!
The English established the Dail, the Irish Houses of Parliament and that has never changed. But it can't be true you say?
Read Article 65 of that Act and see who runs Ireland and for who? I'll tell you who for the perpetrator of the biggest political scam the world has ever known, that covered up the biggest and longest holocaust the world has ever known.
Wakey Wakey !!!
@Nicky L Please explain?
Seriously mate. If you are _that_ ignorant of our ministers' statements that you can't be arsed googling it, I pity you.
But we both know that's not a genuine question, don't we?

Was this in Co Wexford or Kilkenny?
Is she related to the American author Salinger too then?
