Sir - I wholeheartedly agreed with Eilis O'Hanlon's article in your paper last week where she said The Hunger -the RTÉ show about the Great Famine - "washed over the senses rather than engaging the intellect". I would go further and say the show presented a sanitised version of the Famine. Mention was made of Sir Charles Trevelyan but his full quote was absent, in which he stated: "God sent the Famine to punish the Irish and we should do nothing to mitigate God's will." The Famine was not just an Irish happening. Scotland was equally affected - but the Scottish landlords, led by the Mathesons (a Hong Kong banking family), provided food for their tenants - unlike their counterparts from Ireland who were living it up in London.
