All of the previous "docudramas" I have watched which have been filmed with The Navy's cooperation have ended up seemed like quite good adverts for the service / service life. Im afraid that so far this series has looked more like a Brian Rix production, or a premature start of this years pantomime season.
Yes, I watched it. I also served on Vanguard, Vigilant and Vengeance and left in 2019 so I've seen my fair share of defects, including the atmosphere being 'out of spec'. It's what happens on submarines. You deal with it.
