Episode 1: Britannia: Secrets of the Royal Yacht
May 19, 2017 • 45 min
Part one of two. Rob Bell examines iconic ships that have played significant roles in Britain's maritime and cultural history, beginning with the Royal Yacht Britannia. Now permanently berthed in Edinburgh, it was, for 44 years, a floating palace at sea. HMY Britannia travelled more than a million miles, the equivalent of one circumnavigation of the globe for every year she was in service.
