At Devonport naval base, Ghostbusters are investigating claims the dockyard is haunted. Meanwhile, HMS Chatham sails to Egypt to bury 30 British sailors with full military honours who died 200 years ago when Admiral Nelson destroyed the French Fleet. She then sails north to Turkey to represent Britain at the 90th anniversary of the Gallipoli campaign.
Each Thursday, Plymouth is turned into a war zone as warships, submarines, jet fighters and Royal Marines engage in simulated conflict on land, sea and air. How will Angela Thomas find time for her opera group's production of HMS Pinafore?
