In fact you're right - Jack's ship wasn't alone, but was leading a squadron of four British ships, making the victory much more plausible. That battle really happened in 1804, though the writer added his own characters to these events (though other ships and captains in the squadron who are named were real). If you're curious to know more, there's an article about it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_of_5_October_1804
Listen carefully and their was more than l British ship as discussed in rights of the men on several British ships as to the captured Spanish gold and ships.
I love Adjoa Andoh's voice - she can sound so refined but subtly, playfully wicked with it. Mind you, by contrast she was also good as Nancy in Oliver Twist...

David Robb makes a good Jack Aubrey. Dillane less good as Maturin - well worth a listen overall. Thank you
Great show. Thanksalot. In this story disbelieve 1 English ship beat out 4 Spanish in a fight. How could that zver be possibile ?
Most of the naval engagements in these books were based on real actions
