The Hunt for Lady Olive and the German Submarine
On the morning of February 19, 1917, German U-boat UC-18 opened fire on Royal Navy Q-ship the Lady Olive, but as the submarine drew near to assess the damage it had inflicted, the Lady Olive counter-attacked. Both vessels were said to have sunk. For decades, divers and historians have searched to discover their fate and understand the story that led to this encounter. This documentary follows film-maker Karl Taylor and his specialist team over four years as they search to uncover what happened on that fateful day in 1917
