From The Australian, this is The Flood. The true story of 60 Australian men and women trapped in a submarine deep under the Indian Ocean when an explosion threatens to sink the vessel and send its crew to the bottom.

In Episode 1: Explosion, the commander takes his submarine down to its deepest diving depth when a loud noise at the back of the boat changes the lives of everyone on board. An extraordinary battle for survival is just beginning.

Exclusive interviews with the captain, crew and top brass reveal the terror and emotion that still haunts this group of proud warriors, who risked their own lives every day in the defence of Australia. The Flood is a truly inspirational story of human courage, resilience, teamwork and ingenuity.

The Flood is a four-part audio and video series by Cameron Stewart, Claire Harvey and Jasper Leak. Listen to all of The Flood by searching ‘The Flood’ wherever you listen, or watch The Flood and find graphics, stories and pictures at thefloodpodcast.com
