    Got it! Over to you, Dan.

    Sorry for the delay everyone and thanks NZ.

    A bit of help needed here. This is also the last time a foreign flag was raised over what is now UK. territory. As I said before this question excludes overseas territories, Gibralter and also foreign embassies. It is now part of a mainland UK. constituency.

    That's the one Vic. The Isle of Lundy was occupied by Barbary pirates for 5 years during the 17th Century - where the flag of the Ottoman empire flew over the island. Over to you.

    No, not Constantinople - although I would have guessed that as well.
