The longest campaign of World War II was fought in the Atlantic Ocean. Tens of thousands of lives were lost as Hitler's U-boat fleet hunted in packs, chasing down the Allied convoys that brought vital supplies to Britain.
The port of Derry played a vital role as the United Kingdom's most westerly base, and it was here that German U-boats were taken at the end of the war to officially surrender before being scuttled off Ireland's north west coast.
A specialist team of deep-sea divers are now searching for these wrecks, while historians unravel the dramatic clashes and human cost of the opening stages of this epic battle at sea.

However, through a combination of new tactics, weaponry and heroic convoy commanders, the Allied forces began to fight back.
Throughout, the port of Derry played a pivotal role as the UK's most westerly base. Historians explore the story of a group of Irish merchant seamen who found themselves captured and enslaved in the horror of a Nazi labour camp.
