Very nice, would love to hear more of the stories of the people living there.

I loved this documentary but I don't like the way it was not acknowledged that Irish people were slaves on the island and not Masters like a few mentioned. The Irish slaves encouraged the African Slaves and helped them revolt against the British Landowners.

I really enjoyed this. Thanks for all your effort in shooting these videos. As a Montserratian now living abroad, it has brought back so many memories.

Great video.

Seems to portray Monserat life pretty well.

I was going to move there about 20 years ago to live and work but moved from Ireland to Thailand instead.

Would love to visit though.
