Many thanks for those fascinating links, Tony. Incidentally, was the cause of the fire ever discovered? There was some suggestion at the time that it was arson.

Thanks for that. It's good to know Britain's other famous ship is getting back to her old/new self!

Anna,

I believe arson was eventually ruled out and this was found to be the cause:

I wonder what the guards do now? :roll:
