Lets hope so, nice to have some WWII battles close to home instead of always in Europe or Asia/Pacific. :)

Was it good and waht did it cover?

Yes it was good background / historical scenes with footage of the wreck today.......here is a link to some more photos.......disappointing that it cannot be shown outside Aus......

Thanks Rattler, great pics, interesting to see Kormorans torpedo flaps open and the Sydneys torpedos missing/fired. Thanks again.

Yes incredible and such close range talk of 1500 metres........would have been a very deadly engagement.
