The Legacy of the Spanish Civil War (Partisans X)

This is the final episode in the series Partisans. While the Spanish Civil War came to an end in 1939 and the Irish returned home for many Spaniards, Basques and Catalans the conflict would not end for decades. To conclude the series I interview the expert Nick Lloyd for his insights into what happened after Franco took power. Nick explains what the Franco's regime was like, who were the winners and losers and how people resisted. Nick who is based in Barcelona is starting virtual tours of the Spanish Civil War - find out more www.thespanishcivilwar.com.
