Na Gothas a' bomadh Lunnainn agus HMS Vanguard a' spreadhadh an Scapa Flow. The events of WW1, including German Gothas bombing London and HMS Vanguard exploding in Scapa Flow.

Bha a' Ghearmailt air tòiseachadh a' cleachdadh bomairean ùra aig an àm seo a bha comasach air luchd trom de bhomaichean a ghiùlan air astar fada. B' e Gotha GIV an t-ainm a bha orra agus, air feasgar an 7mh den Iuchar, thug a dhà air fhichead dhiubh ionnsaigh, còmhla, air Lunnainn. Mar a tha Gilleasbuig MacDhòmhnaill ag innse, cha robh fhios aig muinntir a' bhaile an toiseach dè bha tachairt, ach cha b'fhada gus na thuig iad an sgrios.

Cluinnidh sinn cuideachd bhuaithe mun chall-beatha a bu mhotha a dh'fhulang a' Chabhlach Rìoghail tro thubaist a-riamh, nuair a spreadh HMS Vanguard is i aig acair ann an Scapa Flow air a 9mh den Iuchar.
