Join renowned treasure hunter Michael Hatcher and marine historian Nigel Pickford as they embark on an epic quest to uncover the wreck of the Chinese junk 'Tek Sing' (True Star) in the treacherous Galassa Straits of the South China Sea. This documentary recounts the thrilling story of the largest cargo of Chinese porcelain ever recovered, the detective work behind the discovery, and the tragic tale of the Tek Sing's sinking in 1822. Dive into maritime history, underwater archaeology, and the dramatic end of an era in Chinese trade, as 300,000 pieces of rare porcelain are brought to the surface after nearly 200 years.
