Sea Patrol

Post by Rockjet »

Thoroughly enjoyed the series Sea Patrol, some action at last but in the final episode last night, a little unrealistic but never the less was worth watching. Only hope they make a second series with the new Armidale Class Patrol Boats.

Rockjet,

Your wish will come true. I read last week that they had approved the next series and may have started the filming, and it will be on the new armidale class patrolies.

Watched every episode but the last. Forgot to set up the recording. :(

Was this the one where they actually used the guns Rockjet?
"VKI, NJ050 will you be attending the job?"

Yeah, but did it without permission although they were fired upon first. They used the 40/60 Gun on the quarter deck and fired direct at the other vessel from short range which is a bit far fetched but good action for TV viewers none the less.
The old ABC series was much better and used other Navy ships as well where as I've only seen another Patrol Boat in this series.
