HMS Brilliant Season 1, Episode 5: Gladys Takes the Rapp

0 0 • 0.0/10

HMS Brilliant is back at sea and caught up in a courtroom drama. After a riotous night ashore, mechanic Kevin "Gladys" Gladman stands accused of assaulting a superior officer and he faces a possible loss of rate and 28 days in detention. It's up to Captain James Rapp to act as judge and jury. "I'm denying it," says a defiant Gladman. "There's been no witnesses that said they saw me hit him." His crewmates aren't so confident, though, and there's a sweepstake below decks laying bets on his punishment. As Gladman waits to hear the verdict, HMS Brilliant sails ever closer home. For the rest of the ship it is their last board-and-search patrol in the Adriatic and spirits soar at the end of seven months gruelling work.
