The Falklands: 40 years on, a father and son's story

A father and son reflect on the Falklands War experience, 40 years on

This week we've been listening back to some of our favourite episodes of 2022. April marked 40 years since the Falklands War, Manveen joined a father and son on a journey through time.

In April 1982, Captain Christopher Craig set sail with his crew on the frigate HMS Alacrity to the Falkland Islands after Argentina had invaded the British overseas territory. Four decades on, Chris and his son Duncan - then a six-year-old schoolboy in Bournemouth - reflect on that war.

Guests:
- Captain Christopher Craig, CB, DSC, Royal Navy.
- Duncan Craig, Travel Editor, The Times and The Sunday Times.

Host: Manveen Rana.
