Scéalta Grá na hÉireann
Matilda Tone & Theobald Wolfe Tone
Season 2 Episode 4 of 6
The extraordinary love story of Martha Witherington and Theobald Wolfe Tone. Their elopement led to a lifetime of adventure, including battles, secret meetings with Napoleon, and revolutionary intrigue. Their love was more than just a personal affair, it became the very foundation of Irish Republicanism and a driving force behind the country's fight for independence. Martha's devotion to her patriot husband led her to compile and publish his diaries, which inspired generations of rebels and still hold great importance today
