Coast: All at Sea

INHALT

The team examines stories related to the sea. Novice sailor Nick Crane enters the annual one-day yacht race around the Isle of Wight, while Mark Horton relates a gruesome tale of cannibalism and murder that scandalised Victorian Britain when survivors of an 1884 shipwreck killed a cabin boy and drank his blood to survive. In Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire, Ruth Goodman investigates the story of the Dutch men who adapted their fishing skills to clear mines laid in the seas around British ports during the Second World War and naval historian Nick Hewitt explores the remains of a First World War German U-boat in the mud of the Medway estuary. Last in the series.
