Over a quarter of a million wrecks lie lost and forgotten in the murky waters around Britain's coast. In a major new Channel 4 series, the Wreck Detectives challenge is to dive deep and discover the secrets hidden in eight wrecks, which span the centuries from a medieval trade ship to a D-Day frigate. Using the latest technology, the team will piece together evidence on each ship's identity, how it sank and why it was there. This site explores the hazards and adventure of bringing history to life. You can get a taste of the excitement in our quiz.
