Ioan Grufudd is gettting as much work as fellow Welshman, Anthony Hopkins!
But the film brings back memories as I spent a year in Kingston Upon Hull back in the 70s and visited Wilberforce House Museum several times - a fascinating place of the history of slavery and Wilberforce's part in its abolition within the British Empire.
John Newton, who wrote the words of the hymn, once worked in the slave trade himself.
I look forward to the DVD!
