@ cobra Emergency, many thanks for a great video with lovely clear close ups and great informative information 👍...what a fantastic piece of engineering that ship is very impressive, and impressive the way the tugs were pushing it around into position 👏.
Hi I know you are filming from Gosport and you're not quite ' back in Portsmouth' lol. mind you, I think it's a better view from this side. Great filming!
Why is it everyone else gets to these huge magnificent carriers but in Scotland we do not .....Glen douglas ...closed to traffic....leaves straight out to North Sea.....why not anchor of Greenock in the Clyde ....let us mere proud scots admire the ships we helped build ...now that proves we are a 1 nation .......
That’s both . Once they’re gone that’s it. Nothing left: few missile destroyers. Few subs. We still got any cruisers or they belong in the age of sail?
How many other ships, have we had to mothball, to man these carriers????? Have extended family member serving, who told his father, ex RN himself, that he , and others, were being re-deployed to the carriers. Please tell me i am wrong.
The Union Jack only flown in port, as soon as the lines cast off she's at sea, the Jack lowered and the White Ensign flown from the stern. Often flown from the mast as would hinder aircraft movements when on the stern.
@@tonys1636 And why can't we have nice big ensigns on our ships like the French for example, rather than the pitiful little - almost invisible - white ensigns trying not to get tangled up in the antennae that clutter most ships. Are we supposed to be anonymous?
Imagine if our countries actually used these things to defend democracy? So when will these "tools" be used at the absoulte last minute of a nations existence ?
A large part of the defence budget in two baskets.. Stop kidding yourselves. These two ships are vulnerable to the latest weaponry that can be used against ships of this size. We would have been far better off building flotillas of small fast and highly adaptable vessels, including small submarines, to keep our coasts safe just as the Swedes and Norwegians have. The nuclear 'deterrent' today is a complete waste of money and should be scrapped. For disciplinary reasons, we should also stop mixing the sexes in vessels. Men and women to have their own vessels.
Having trouble getting enough Men AND Women to man the vessels doubt you'd find enough Women to man more than one or maybe two Frigates by taking them of all the other vessels, which will likely be nicknamed the Eastrogen barges or something by the rest of the service personnel if not something more explicit.
@@Kakarot64. I would expect no less from military or naval banter - no doubt the 'woke brigade' will try and ban this next. As regards poor recruitment, suggest setting up a large number of small naval bases all around the country and concentrate recruiting on a part-time basis from those local communities with strong maritime traditions. Work on the Swedish 'tank in the barn' policy of good localised defence. Small boats and small crews are the answer for good coastal defence though we would still need to keep a 'deep sea' fleet of around thirty frigates/destroyers for trade route defence.
Yet another armchair admiral. Why don't the MOD sack all the real admirals and replace them with the loudmouths and idiots who infest any comments about the RN? The loudmouths think they can do a better job
Looking great, both carriers out for a stroll. The past issues will only make them that much better for a long and successful service.
Love this, I was Prince of Wales Division, Devonshire and Dorset Regiment in the 90's😊
Thanks for your service and keeping us all safe, I hope you're well. From a ex Devonian, now in cider country. Ohhh arr lol.
Very impressive. Love the tugs.♥️
Thank you for sharing.
Currently watching HMS Prince of Wales going past Dawlish, Devon on the Horizon, bit of a grey speck in the mist today. 07/09/24 11:28hrs.
Excellent, great to see. God knows how many times I’ve been in and out of there but hardly recognise the place now 😔

You got some great views this week!
Hope they fixed the propulsion issues and it has more luck than the last ship which carried that name.
I saw them both out last week.
Still the greatest Navy in the world. Not the largest by any means, tho what an incomparable heritage and history.

Would love if you could do this for Indian Warships and Carrier
Sighted pm today off Plymouth
According to the BBC's high quality, and thorough, investigative journalists, HMS PoW was in the Med 24 hours later!

Are there any destroyers or frigates capable of escorting her?
Don't the hands fall in for leaving harbour any more?
Is it still at sea or has it broken down again ?
That’s both . Once they’re gone that’s it. Nothing left: few missile destroyers. Few subs. We still got any cruisers or they belong in the age of sail?

There are no mothballed warships these days unless you count Bulwark/Albion.
You're wrong.

Biter has no deck gun? Biter has no bite?
also has no aircraft
Policing the Empire. The RN puts to sea.
Unfortunately the way it’s looking it’ll be a Muslim empire soon.
Ridiculous, we don't even have a nation to defend anymore
Why Isnt She Flying Her Colors ? No JackStaff ?

@@cathybrind2381 That White Ensign on her is quite large but looks tiny on a massive ship, it looks much larger when a sailor is beside it.

Heading out to keep our borders safe 😂
