THE SINKING OF HENRY VIII’S MIGHTY WARSHIP THE MARY ROSE REMAINS ONE OF OUR
GREATEST MARITIME MYSTERIES. WHAT HAPPENED ON THAT ILL FATED DAY IN 1545 HAS
PUZZLED HISTORIANS AND ARCHAEOLOGISTS FOR CENTURIES
Ghosts of the Mary Rose uses the latest forensic techniques to investigate one
of the biggest unsolved mysteries in British history: the identity of the crew
of the Mary Rose. It reveals a startling new explanation for why the Mary Rose
sank.
The Mary Rose sank to the bottom of the sea on 19 July 1545. Almost the entire
crew of around 400 sailors and soldiers died. Yet despite the massive loss of
life, only one name for certain is known of the ill-fated crew: the Vice Admiral
George Carew.
This historical documentary looks at one of Britain's greatest maritime
mysteries - the sinking of the Mary Rose in 1545. Professor Hugh Montgomery, a
leading intensive-care doctor who dived on the wreck as a young man, returns to
Portsmouth to investigate the skeletons of the crew who drowned when the ship
keeled over. The bones lead to a startling discovery and a new theory as to why
the ship sank.
