This is why I am proud to be British! OTD 1807 our great nation stepped up to illuminate the path of goodness as a global force for good. William Wilberforce - a legendary hero of freedom - a legacy of determined perseverance for the victory of good or evil. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

The one I strongly advise you NOT to watch is the utterly dreadful 2002 version. Just awful. A.E.W Mason and Alexander Korda would be spinning in their graves to see such a travesty! Stick with the 1939, and the 1978 (showing this week on @TalkingPicsTV) and you can't go wrong.
