Drake’s Royal Voyager, C5, 9pm
The Golden Hinde was an English galleon best known for circumnavigating the globe between 1577 and 1580. Captained by mariner, privateer and explorer Sir Francis Drake, she was originally known as Pelican, but was renamed mid-voyage in 1578, in honour of Drake’s patron, Sir Christopher Hatton, whose crest was a golden hind. In this one-off documentary, Rob Bell explores the adventures of the famous ship that Drake used to plunder Spanish treasure.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
