A frank account of life on the ocean wave in one of Her Majesty's ships 1:Last Run Ashore
This documentary serial of ten films, winner of six major prizes, including two British Academy Awards, is considered a television classic.
The story begins in the strip clubs of Devonport the night before HMS Ark Royal is due to thread her way out to sea through the trickiest harbour in the land to ports and seas known to mariners since the days of Raleigh.
Superb television. Riveting and revealing....
