• Seven British solo sailors prepare to compete in the toughest ocean race of all, the Vendée Globe, non-stop, alone around the world in a fleet of 30. Ahead of them are the most dangerous voyage in sailing, hurricane-force winds, waves the size of houses and total isolation. History says that around half of those who start this race will not make the finish; some have lost their lives trying.
• It is the start day of Vendée Globe, the toughest ocean contest of them all, as 30 skippers, including seven from Great Britain, are about to set sail from France and race non-stop and alone around the world. Saying goodbye is not easy, for the sailors or their loved ones as this is a potentially dangerous race where lives have been lost. There are dockside tears as the skippers slip away and head out to sea.
• Vendée Globe In the hostile Southern Ocean, the boats battle the elements for six weeks near Antarctica. As the fleet approaches Australia, three weeks of storm-force winds and unprecedented events dash the hopes of more of the sailors.
• Vendee Globe By the time the leaders have reached the halfway point, already only half of the fleet remain as Southern Ocean storms have broken boats and bones.
• After two months of racing, less than half the fleet remain, and the Southern Ocean hasn't stopped its punishment. At the notorious Cape Horn one competitor is fighting for his life, while two British skippers must take shelter in a hurricane-force storm. Ahead are the Atlantic, and then the finish line. Will it be a famous victory for a French sailing legend, and will the remaining Brits all make it home in one piece?
