Westland Row
It's Monday morning on the 18th June 1917.
On Westland Row in the city of Dublin, Ireland, crowds are gathering. Many are on board the Dublin tramways; others spectate in the street.
They have been celebrating all night, but now the moment is almost upon them.
It's been just over a year since the Easter Rising and now, finally, the last of the republican prisoners jailed in England are arriving home to a passionate reception.
