1 9 7 3 – 1 9 7 8 (UK)
This BBC drama about life on the (fictional) Royal Navy frigate HMS Phoebe ran for five series until 1978.
The series was made with the full cooperation of the Royal Navy which lent its star, HMS Hero, to play the Phoebe.
As the series opened, Commander Nialls (Donald Burton) arrived in Gibraltar (where many spectacular sequences of the series were shot) to take command after Phoebe had been left for six weeks without a captain or first lieutenant. Both had left in disastrous circumstances.
