Description An exceptionally fine war drama. The German U-boat emerges to find a British cruiser waiting handy; it receives a salvo and submerges for ever. Mr Allan Wilkie is the heroic artilleryman, Captain Terence, Fielding, bluffing the German spies and frustrating their knavish tricks. The piece is brimful of excitement and thrilling moments, with its humorous elements.
