An Interview With Scotch Malt Whisky Society's John McCheyne

Join us as we chat to former Royal Navy Commander Tom Sharpe, as he talks about his career at sea and how he and his ships company saved HMS Endurance.

Hop and Dom discuss the boarding of a (maybe) Russian flagged tanker, what she may be carrying, UK involvement and a bit of Hunting Red October. The order is... engage the silent drive!

In this episode, David Brookfield sits down with Dougie, a survivor of HMS Coventry, to hear his first-hand account of life aboard the ship and the events surrounding her fateful journey. Dougie shares his experiences, giving us a deeply personal insight into the human side of naval service during conflict. This is a story of resilience, camaraderie, and a testament to those who served and the lives forever marked by that day.

Hi, hi, hi shipmates! We’re back! Welcome to Season 2 of ShipWrekt! We were absolutely blown away by the response to Season 1. Your enthusiasm, your messages, and the passion you brought to the show genuinely inspired us. That support is exactly why we launched our Patreon, so we can push our production even further this season and bring you bigger, better storytelling. By joining us there, you’ll get bonus episodes, early access to our main-feed episodes, exclusive guest interviews, breaking news briefs, and even the opportunity to help choose our next topic. It’s a way for us to grow this project with the people who care about these stories as much as we do. And speaking of stories, today, we’re diving into one of the most dramatic moments of the Falklands War. On the 25th of May, 1982, the destroyer HMS Coventry was sunk off Pebble Island by Argentine A-4 Skyhawks of Zeus Squadron. In this episode, Dom, Tim, Hop, Latin, David Brookfield, and our special guest, Keith Douglas, analyze the final attacks, walk through the damage she sustained, and hear the story of one of her survivors on that fateful day. So let’s get underway. Join us for this episode of ShipWrekt: Thunderbolt of Zeus — The Loss of HMS Coventry.
