The amount of detail and the amount of information packed into this documentary blew me away. Had me hooked every second, I can't believe it was free.
-
Have a great weekend everyone ❤😊
-
We need another "Master & Commander" film.
-
I’m lucky to live only 10 miles from where Victory sits in dry dock and have visited it many times since I was young. Such an incredible piece of British History, its a shame she isn’t still seaworthy.
-
I’m now realizing how much engineering it took to make these ships
-
Such a massive ship, 3000 trees, more weight of shot than in Wellington's entire army. I can't believe she was only expected to last 18 years!
-
If you ever go to Portsmouth definitely visit the ship! The Tudor Mary Rose is also on display with a fantastic collection of artefacts. Seeing where Nelson was first shot & then died is a really strange & moving experience: you try to imagine being there at the time, with the terrible noise of battle, the smoke, the injured & dead. Standing on the deck in the sunshine, hundreds of years later, is surreal.
-
For the age this ship and attention to detail really is the naval transportation and combat at it's best. Makes you wonder how many mistakes and accidents it took to perfect a ship like this. Amazing attention to detail Epic History TV

Visiting HMS Victory in Portsmouth dockyard was one of the most memorable and worthwhile experiences of my very long life.
-
As a Maltese and coming from a family of a sea fairing tradition, I enjoyed this video very much……Thank you.
-
This gives me goosebumps and I am not even British!!! I am only a few minutes in... My hats off to you Brits! That is STILL one helluva ship! From a Southern Rebel!!!
-
Happy Trafalgar day! Was expecting the trafalgar video to be published today but this sure as hell also serves the purpose!
-
Fantastic video! I spent 2 weeks in London in 2005 on business. My only day off was spent in Portsmouth touring the HMS Victory. It was the highlight of my UK visit.
-
I have seen few videos that can match the quality of this one. The narrative, the graphics, the scope are just top notch!
-
Not only have I been aboard HMS Victory, but in January 1999, I had the opportunity to sit in Lord Nelson's chair and enjoyed drinks in the Warrant Officers mess. I also have a plaque from Victory. Thanks, Dave!!
-
Drops on Trafalgar day, unfathomably based.
-
it's nice to get the full video of HMS Victory 218 years to the day she won at Trafalgar.
-
WoW!!! Having served in the U.S. Navy, I really want to go and see this great ship personally. It's on my bucket list for sure. 👍
-
It was an epic visit during our vacation in southern England, along with many more museums and historical sites. My father - who is a naval enthusiast - was particularily smitten with Portsmouth and the Royal Navy Dockyard. Regard to everyone dedicated to preserving history and for showing all in all kindness, enthusiasm and friendship while our visit. Best Regards from Germany, and keep up the good work!
