Deep Water (2006): Crowhurst Returns

The clip Crowhurst Returns from Deep Water (2006)

would come past his actual position.
He had to plan how and where
to rejoin the race, when to break radio silence.
Above all, he had to prepare the written evidence
of a circumnavigation.
Kerr: Once he'd arrived successfully,
the panel of judges would want to see his logbooks.
They would want proof that he had been round the world.
He would have to fake his position
for every day he was supposed to be in the southern ocean.
That was an amazingly difficult thing to do.
Winspear: That would create enormous pressure.
He might think, "Well, I don't think I can go through with it."
By this stage, I think Don genuinely felt
that winning the race wasn't part of the plot.
Kerr: All he wanted really
was to come in quietly as the man who came forth.
Nobody wants to see their logbooks...
not too much scrutiny.
The interest in them wouldn't last long.
Winspear: Don was very much at risk in his game here.
But he just wanted to go back.
He was coming home.
Hynds: One morning, Rodney calls into the office
and said, "Ah, he's back!"
I said, "Oh, who's back?"
And it was, "Donald Crowhurst is back."
There's a phone call from Portishead
saying Crowhurst is back on the air.
Clare: Rodney Hallworth phoned me very early one morning.
