A shame the MOD had no budget to film the VG boat as they passed the Falklands...
The Aeronavale (on an even tighter budget than the MOD) managed to get these splendid shots of Alex Thomson passing the Kerguelen islands a week or so ago, waiving the Union Jack and getting prime time coverage on French TV and (apparently) around 120 million views on various internet video outlets.
Watch: Amazing helicopter footage of Alex Thomson in Vendee Globe race - BBC Sport
A bit disappointed the MOD budget didn't stretch to the same when he passed the Falklands two days ago..
