Thanks Geoff. I have pre-recorded the programme tonight via my Sky box as well as the series.

Good spot Geoff, I think I would have missed that had it not been for you. Like David recorded it on Sky.

Yes not a bad series. A lot of ship board scenes and worth a watch.

Definitely worth watching.
Even if you do not know the actual people, there are many 'characters' in it that we have all met at some time.

Next week, by the preview, seems to be down the tunnel, so maybe somewhat different.....

I watched it and enjoyed it, but found it a little sad with regard to our maritime heritage and our now total reliance on other countries making even the most trivial things for us.
