The Great Ships ( Forces TV )
« on: November 02, 2019, 12:48:17 am »

The great ships is a series on Forces TV (channel 96 i believe) anyone watching it, up to now Walers, Galleons, PT boats and yesterday Dreadnoughts - all from the US point of view.

Hi Forces TV is on Virgin 277, I watch it a lot, but perhaps it depends on your area?

Yep, been available in the NW for maybe a year now. Usually old TV series like UFO, bless this house, never the twain etc and various military ship and aircraft series predominantly US.

  They also have an associated web site   https://www.forces.net/services/navy/we-give-you-aircraft-carrier-hms-prince-wales-all-her-glory     this item well worth watching in full screen. Even though they did not have a full compliment to totally dress the decks when entering Pompey
