Roving Reporter - King William

Through an examination of some relics of King William III's visit to Belfast in 1690, James Boyce adds flesh to the traditional image of him as a man on a white charger. We see the monarch as a young boy, find out what he ate for breakfast, learn what the motto on his seal said and hear about his favourite alcoholic beverage.

Recorded circa 1960.
