The Liberty ship SS Richard Montgomery is a time-bomb waiting for a terrorist to give Britain its first real tsunami and, maybe, worse. This film shows what can happen when a government conceals something really dangerous from its own people.Fact: The US explosives carrier Richard Montgomery sank in the Thames Estuary in August 1944.
It was lodaed with 1500 tons of explosive munitions. The Admiralty decided to leave the wreck and its dangerous cargo undisturbed. The wreck lies just a few hundred yards offshore between an oil refinery and sevearl towns.
South end on Sea is just a couple of miles away on the other side of the Thames estuary.Rumours about the ship and its cargo have circulated in these tonws ever for. Denials have been issued by ministers in the House of Commons in response to members questions about the presence on baord of biological, chemical and gas warheads.
Nevertheless, rumours persist that the real reason the wreck was not made safe was because of the existence of ‘dirty weapons’ on board. See website for links to fatcual information about the ship & its cargo, and to read movie script synopses about a fictional attack by terrorists on the ship to hold the government to ransom.Http://www.Ssrichardmontgomery.Com
