Oliver Cromwell is known for being the person who gave us democracy for the people over a ruling monarchy, but twice this year his statue in Wythenshawe Park has been vandalised. He has been condemned for his role in the Drogheda massacre and slavery. So was Cromwell a hero or villain or neither and did he really cancel Christmas? Historian and author Miranda Malins tells the story of England's Lord Protector.
