In this episode, we explore the story of Capel Celyn, the Welsh village flooded in 1965 to create a reservoir to supply water to Liverpool. We examine why and how the decision was made, the reaction at the time, and the wider political and cultural impact. From protests and parliamentary opposition to the emergence of groups like the Free Wales Army, we discuss how this event became a significant moment in modern Welsh history and its lasting legacy today.
