Trying to avoid terminal boredom I was watching the 2021/2022 series of U C when the notification of his passing was flashed up.

Enjoy the Summerlands Mr. Gascoigne!

Not a bad read, though a wee bit short on the second and third centuries.
He contributed to 'The Lion history of Christianity", a weighty tome yet still a good reference book.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."
