Arrow TV Tip

Tomorrow night,BBC2, a documentary about an Arctic convoy during the War.I know the presenter's not everyone's cup of tea,but he does present historical features quite well. Followed,on Friday night,by James May's Toy Stories,where he attempts to ride the TT circuit on a bike made from Meccano! Should be interesting

Is the convoy PQ17 ?

If it is i believe it suffered very heavy losses at the hands of the U boats after it scattered, i think because they thought the German Battleship Tirpitz had set sail from a Norwegian fiord, will certainly be watching this.
