However, he did admit in “State Visit” that his wife had walked out on him for a while years ago when he put the job first and her second. They live in an expensive detached house in Chelsea.

This story is loosely based on the story of one such ship, the “Admiral Graf Spee”, and how 3 lightly armed Royal Navy cruisers with mere 6 and 8 inch guns boldly took on this powerful “pocket battleship” armed with 11 inch guns.
