S01E01 For Queen and Country
Britain’s deadliest warship is on her first active operations. Sixteen hundred mostly young men and women set sail on a voyage through hostile waters to the other side of the world.
After travelling over 20,000 miles, HMS Queen Elizabeth heads from Japan back to Guam for vital maintenance. After the sailors relax on a longer run of shore leave, the ship and her escorts sail in convoy with the American, Japanese and Australian navies for a show of strength in China’s backyard.
The exciting, surprising and often moving story of HMS Queen Elizabeth’s first operational mission: a seven-month voyage to the other side of an increasingly troubled world.
