I'm watching Shipwreck Hunters. The narrator really should say the title with a decent space between the words and pronounce the H 😂

Palaeography and popular culture:

I was just watching episode 4 of Shipwreck Hunters Australia on Disney+, in which they are diving the wreck site of The Trial, an East India Company ship which sank off the coast of Australia in 1622.

Towards the end they showed a couple of manuscripts with the accounts of the survivors, and I will admit to pausing the episode to read part of one out loud to my wife.
