When History Resurfaces
February 11 on History (DStv Channel 186)
at 20h15
The oceans hide many secrets. Far, far away
from the crowded cities at their surface, hundreds of sunken ships lay
motionless on the ocean floor. Their sombre remains are sometimes discovered by
fisherman or scientific expeditions years later, when their story is finally
unveiled in all its splendour. But there are also tales of wrecks whose mystery
has never been revealed. Some have been forgotten for years… This is the story
of forty-four voyages and how they were forever marked by a single tragedy, the
wrecks of the SS Frontenac (1945), the SS Fort-Coulonge (1849), the Titanic
(1912), Empress of Ireland (1914), Gairsoppa (1916) and the Edmund Fitzgerald
(1975).
