Newtownards man Paddy Mayne was an unconventional soldier – a founder member of the SAS. He is one of the central characters in the BBC's hit war drama, SAS: Rogue Heroes But there is much controversy over how he has portrayed, foul mouthed, thuggish and with a very dodgy accent. Military historians in particular, say that's not how he was. And this publicity has once again brought old questions to the fore – why was Mayne never given the Victoria Cross? And even, should he be given the honour posthumously? Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Andrew Madden. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
