Introducing: The Belgrano Diary
Manage episode 408127338 series 2994242
On 2 May 1982, the British submarine HMS Conqueror sank the Argentinian warship, the General Belgrano, killing 323 men. It was the bloodiest event of the Falklands War – and the most controversial.
The account of the sinking given by Thatcher's government was inaccurate in every crucial detail – and the truth would only emerge from the pages of a private diary, written by an officer onboard the submarine.
The Belgrano Diary is a story of war in the South Atlantic, iron leadership, cover-ups and conspiracies, crusading politicians and competing journalists, and an unlikely whistleblower.
A new six-part series from the Documentary Team at the London Review of Books, hosted by Andrew O’Hagan.
Episode One coming 28 March. Find it wherever you're listening to this podcast.
