The Dangerous Game
This film is shown under licence from the Imperial War Museum. It was produced in the mid 1970’s as one of a series about the Royal Navy, aiming to raise public awareness and perhaps as an aid to recruitment. Several TCA members appear in the film, including our Patron HRH The Prince of Wales, his First Lieutenant Roy Clare, Kevin Syder, Sam Cook and Rob Hoole among many “bit players” in what are effectively newsreel shots of MCM activities at that time
