Description

Deep beneath the Indian Ocean, 60 Australian submariners were preparing for a routine deep-dive test when a sharp hiss turned into an almighty explosion. Suddenly, seawater was pouring into HMAS Dechaineux at terrifying speed. The crew had only seconds to react and no way of knowing whether they could get their crippled submarine back to the surface. In episode one of The Flood, the crew reveals the moment one of the most dangerous emergencies in Australian naval history began. The Flood is a four-part series, with Episode 2: Shut All Hull Valves out now.
