Woops, clicked on Trunks not Trunk.
Trunks is just a directory tree balancing folder because my projects use
relative paths, so projects in Branches/SpecificBranch and Trunks/Trunk
are equidistant from Externals. Same for Tags/SpecificTag and
Releases/SpecificRelease.
Further to the above. I like to keep the size of a whole repo checkout
down and so branches and tags that have served their purpose are (get)
deleted.
So currently there are no tags. So to the see deleted tags history it's
necessary to go back to the Trunk folder. Rev graph wont bring up a view
of the deleted tags by clicking in the "Tags" whitespace.

P.S.
Did I mention showing little dotted lines that join the source and
destination of merges.
Clicking on the line shows a listbox of affected files and clicking on
one shows the diff.
Aggh. Go away Peter.
