I was wondering if anyone here could help me locate a documentary I saw a few years ago. I don't remember any names, but it was about a gigantic ore transporter that capsized and sank with all hands lost somewhere in southeast Asia (I think) during extremely foul weather. The documentary followed investigators trying to find out why exactly it sank, and there was also interviews with next of kin who I think mostly came from some small village in England. I think they finally concluded that the sinking had something to do with an access hole having been torn open in the storm which had allowed swell to gradually fill up the interior of the ship until it got so heavy it sank.

If anyone could help me track down this documentary then that would be awesome, because it was really good and I've been wanting to see it again.


This is from a while back, but the ship concerned is almost certainly the MV Derbyshire, the largest British-flagged ship ever lost at sea. Hope this helps.
