Death in the Ice - The Story of the Franklin  Expedition of 1845 to find the North West Passage  at The National Maritime Museum .
Bruv has always been interested in the life of the great Orcadian explorer
Dr John Rae . and so he came to stay for a few days so we could go to this exhibition .All the crew perished and it is still a mystery what happened .
John Rae discovered from the Intuits  that some  of the crew had resorted to cannibalism . - a view that was rejected  in England at the time but  later proved to be true .
