Interesting, but I have questions on some of the analysis.

“It’s interesting to listen to this as I’m sat in Stanley, FI, where I live and work. Throughout the podcast there is a repeated rhetoric of “the war is over so why does it matter”. Having experienced the continuous Argentine propaganda machine that continues to claim these islands, I wonder how you reconcile the continuing modern day political conflict that exists here with your analysis. We do not want Argentina to come back. Have you considered how they will twist this controversy further? Have you thought about exploring the modern day defence of the Falklands?
Now, I also firmly believe we should explore these topics. Parliament should always have to answer when the truth is obscured. However to do so from a perspective that this event is in isolation in the past and “history” neglects the ongoing lived experiences of those of us living here. I have thought carefully about the original incident, and I firmly believe there was a threat present in 1982. Why the navy, and parliament then acted like they have I am unsure. But ultimately I will always support the governments decision to save the Falklands.”

“Sub sinks enemy cruiser at time of conflict shock!
Strategic action that sent the Argentinian Navy back to port for the duration of the conflict probably saving many British lives.
Unbalanced account of incident and significance.
Narrators tone sneering at times.”

“This is an important story, and it’s great to see it told so well and so thoroughly. Brilliantly paced and well-produced. In particular it’s very gratifying that the experience of brave men like Narendra Sethia and other members of the crew should have been acknowledged and treated so...”Read full review »
