The story

What Is The Greatest Raid of All Time About?

The premise of The Greatest Raid of All Time without spoilers.

Jeremy Clarkson narrates the daring 1942 Commando raid on the German‑occupied St. Nazaire dry dock, codenamed Operation Chariot, aimed at destroying the dock to deny the battleship Tirpitz a refuge. Though many deemed it too risky, Chief of Combined Operations Louis Mountbatten approved. The programme follows the commandos from Cornwall aboard a floating bomb, showing how surprise was hoped to beat the odds.
