My late father, god rest his soul; Took part in the first WWII Convoy to sail from Scapa flow too Murmansk. Most of the ships were not equipped for how cold it could get. Some of the ships wall plates could end up being Inches thick with sheets of solid Ice. Even Inside the ships.
The ever present risk was that an accumulation of ice on the vessel could affect its buoyancy and cause it to capsize.
@@MartinCanada At the time of that first convoy the ships were Not in any way insulated. After the lessons learned via that convoy they started to insulate the ships.... Some of the things my late father told me about that war were truly frightening.... He got Sunk TWICE' in different battles on different ships. If you would have asked him how he survived he would have simply said : *_"You Have To or You Die..."_*
@@lilbullet158 I suppose that many servicemen and women embraced a similar mantra. Cheers
I interviewed and filmed with Paul Atturbury a few weeks ago - a thoroughly charming man, just as you see him here
I take it he says "£800 to £1000" and not "£800,000" because their reaction was very tame for that kind of valuation!
He definitely said £800k 😐

@@lisadolan689 I think he means it as £800/£1000. If someone told me a bell was worth nearly £1mill, I'd be screaming with delight!
Well i have same thoughts on that!💯
@@cornbeefI would be ringing it all the Way Home 💯🤣And at least one hour every day… Until i sold it ASAP!!!!
£800K Naaaaah🫣
Pursued Tirpitz. Bought eggs. A great example of phlegmatic British understatement.
Welcome to the days when antiques road show was all about upper class rich people.
Recently sold a 1940 Air ministry bell for £1900 also known as a scramble bell
Rumours have emerged that the bell made 2 pound,
The commenter was cracked, not the bell
Why is this man touching that 80 year old diary with his bare hands?
This ignorance from a supposed professional is absolutely maddening.
According to the Library of Congress, The UK National Trust, The Smithsonian Institution, The National Archives, The Canadian Library and Archives, etc, etc
"Contrary to popular belief, gloves are generally not recommended as proper handling for rare books! The best way to prepare for handling rare materials is to simply wash and dry your hands thoroughly."
We know where the ignorance comes from
