What Is Captain Jack About?
The premise of Captain Jack without spoilers.
Rebellious and irreverent, Captain Jack is intent on emulating Whitby’s forgotten 18th‑century hero Captain Scoresby by launching an Arctic expedition. He recruits a ragtag crew of oddballs, sets out in a vessel declared unseaworthy, and despite relentless pursuit by the Royal Navy, NATO and the press, he will stop at nothing to achieve his dream.
