Britain's Bloodiest Mutiny

<p>The captain of the HMS Hermione was a sadist even by the not-very-high standards of the British Royal Navy in the 1700's. He was a prolific flogger, subjecting his crew to the cat-of-nine-tails. It was hardly a surprise when his crew rose up and mutinied. Even if the British Navy couldn't for one second let them get away unpunished.</p> <p>This is the brutal and bloody story of Britain's most horrific mutiny, told by the one and only Dan Snow!</p> <p>This episode was edited by Anna Brant.
