A current serving member of the crew of HMS Edinburgh reminisces with a former crew member on the ships last visit to its namesake city before the ship is decommissioned from the Royal Navy next month.

The type-42 destroyer HMS Edinburgh was launched in 1983 and is the last of 6 ships to carry the name, the first transferred from the Royal Scottish Navy in 1707.
