Re: What are you watching right now?
Drain the Oceans - National Geographic. A fascinating episode about the way the English faced off with the Spanish armada.
An interesting fact was that the English cannons were all the same calibre whereas the Spanish had a motley assortment and had to check every ball was the correct size for the gun they were loading which seriously reduced their rate of fire compared to the English.
