BBC and ITV in battle over rival British nuclear submarine murder dramas
A race to surface on screens has been launched between BBC drama Vigil and Tenacity on ITV, dramas set within the cramped confines of a sub.
The BBC is locked in a naval battle with ITV over rival dramas centred around mysterious murders on a British nuclear submarine.
From The Enemy Below to The Hunt for Red October and Das Boot, screen epics have long exploited the claustrophobic tension inherent in vessels trawling the ocean’s depths.
Now a race to surface on screens has been launched between BBC drama Vigil and Tenacity on ITV, dramas set within the cramped confines of a nuclear submarine, which tell remarkably similar stories.

Setting the Scene: A Bitter Contest and a Desperate Chase in the Atlantic
The new documentary ‘Bismarck: 24 Hours to Doom’, which is based on my book of the same name and soon to be broadcast on Channel 4, plunges viewers into a desperate chase, in which the British fleet is trying to avert disaster by catching and sinking the flagship of Hitler’s navy.
The twists and turns of those May 1941 days during the Second World War are reconstructed with high drama.
