Should be good. We had to dive on A1 which is sat on the seabed in the Solent. We were asked to weld a plate on the tower hatch by the site owners. Scooby doos were getting inside and nicking bits. The site owners were concerned about a death from one of them getting trapped.

Good little Summer time job in fairly shallow water. Was in pretty good nick too.

That's was alright, never mentioned A1 though. Even recognised someone on the Astute at the end

Shame as its in good nick. If I recall it's owned by an IOW museum???

That was AMBUSH, according to the speaky voice bit.

Quite an interesting prog though.
