| Fate: | |
| Had the shortest career of any Royal Navy submarine, being lost with all 37 onboard just four days after commissioning. The submarine, under the command of Lieutenant James S. Bridger, was lost whilst carrying out a three-day-long working-up exercise following commissioning. The submarine was last seen leaving her anchorage on 24 February 1943 at Lochranza, in the North of the Isle of Arran, Firth of Clyde. | |
When the nuclear-powered submarine - Tiger Shark - sets out to investigate a baffling series of naval disasters near the Arctic Circle, its fearless crew quickly find themselves besieged by electrical storms, under attack from an unidentified floating saucer, and in the grip of hairy tentacles in this superb science-fiction potboiler from the golden age of Sci-Fi!
