What Sank the Mary Rose?

What Sank the Mary Rose?

What Sank the Mary Rose?

The Mary Rose, built five centuries ago and named after the favourite sister of Henry VIII, was a forerunner of today's battleships. She was defending England against a massive French invasion force in 1545 when, without warning, she capsized and slid under the waves, taking over 400 men with her.

A team of experts from the fields of shipbuilding, science, history and archaeology gather to study the evidence and try to pin down the reason for the disaster. Using a scaled-down model of the Mary Rose, forensic scientists reconstruct the ship's last voyage, and a tragic picture emerges of her final moments.
