Is anyone else watching the series about the Estonia sinking? The first couple of episodes were interesting, though (thankfully) not quite as hideous as some articles I've read about it, and seemed to stick to the facts. Just wondering what people think of it, as I don't know anyone else who's seen it. |

No I have not seen it but I have heard about from someone who lost friends on it. I’ve visited Estonia on numerous occasions and think it’s a wonderful place.
Where are you watching it as it sounds like something that would interest me? |

Yes well worth a look. Also an interesting (although pretty hideous) article to read about it can be found by searching for The Atlantic Magazine MS Estonia. Though after reading that you might never want to go on a ship again. |

Absolute fustercluck and cover up by the Swedish government. They could have salvaged as many bodies as possible but chose not to. Just today they admitted that the ship was used for more than just the two secret military transports.
I personally think there's more to it and there's still a cover up. The full truth will never come out though. |

Yes it's on at 10 tonight on Quest.
I agree with the other post too, we'll never know the full story |
