Sunken Warships: Secrets from the Deep Season 1

This eight-part series follows the stories of eight remarkable warships. Once titans of the sea, they now litter the seabed, their histories lost to the waves - until now.

The twentieth century bore witness to some of the most devastating naval battles in history. Hundreds of thousands of men and women served in some of the largest armadas ever assembled, as, from the Arctic Sea to the South Pacific, colossal battleships met in desperate conflict alongside aircraft carriers, submarines and destroyers. These warships symbolised a nation＇s power on the world stage. With each generation, they grew more powerful and advanced. These were machines of war that inspired both awe and terror.

But many of these ocean titans did not survive. Naval warfare was always evolving, and what was once groundbreaking was soon obsolete. Ships were destroyed by gunfire, torpedoes, and bombs, often with catastrophic loss of life.

This engrossing 8 part series explores the fates of these remarkable vessels and those who served on them. Through rarely seen archive, modern graphics, and exclusive interviews and analysis, “Sunken Warships: Secrets from the Deep” will tell the epic stories of bravery and hubris, triumph and disaster.

From the brave British cruiser lost carrying Stalin’s gold, to an American submarine that vanished beneath the waves, these lost ships all have secrets to be revealed and incredible stories to tell.
