The 102 foot long replica of Drake's ship, the Golden Hind, had been converted in 1954 from an old coastal sea-defence vessel and for many years was a tourist attraction in the harbour at Brixham in Devon, as well as being used for film and television. It cost £25,000. On November 9 1987 she was being towed by the tugboat Pendragon to Dartmouth Harbour to have a new keel fitted when she began taking on water. 55mph winds and 9 foot waves made the rescue of the crew on board difficult, and it was impossible to save the ship which foundered in the River Dart. A new replica was built using an old Thames barge, and once more moored at Brixham.

Classic TV at its best

I am so pleased that (in the UK) the Talking Pictures channel is running the whole of this series. Like some of the other contributors I haven't seen them since I was a nipper but they must have made a big impression on my young mind as the music and sets are so familiar.

Its also fascinating to spot guest stars in early roles - Michael Anderson Jnr, Michael Crawford, Nanette Newman, David McCallum, Howard Lang, and of all people the bloke from 'Play School' Brian Cant who played a small part in one episode, to name but a few.

They don't make them like this anymore . . .
