A gripping wartime drama set during World War II in the United Kingdom. The story unfolds around the remarkable real-life surrender of the German U-boat U-570 to an RAF Hudson aircraft. The main plot centers on the subsequent illegal court martial of the U-boat's first officer, Lt-Cmdr Hans Rahmlow, by his fellow officers in a POW camp near Barrow-in-Furness. The U-boat, renamed HMS Graph, is undergoing refitting at the Vickers submarine yard, making it a significant asset for the Royal Navy. The drama explores themes of honor, duty, and the harsh realities of wartime decisions, climaxing with an audacious plot where POWs attempt to sabotage the refitted U-boat. Originally a BBC Radio 4 play, it's celebrated for its authentic portrayal of wartime events and the legal and moral dilemmas faced by soldiers.
