The Mystery of MV 'Derbyshire' A World Tonight Special Report More than five years have passed since the disappearance of the Derbyshire, a 166,000-ton British combination carrier which was lost in a tropical storm in the Pacific.
No distress signal was heard. No wreckage was found. There were 44 people on board. None survived. Relatives still don't know exactly how - or why - they died. There has never been a public inquiry.
Only now, because of the persistent detective work of one man, a marine salvage investigator who lost a son, is the tragedy being more vigorously probed.
