Here is a review of

Here is a review of this program by a Brit.

The programme has some excellent footage of the Biber running on the surface and diving in a large flooded dry-dock at Portsmouth - plus quite a bit of historic stuff including launching sequence etc.

The driver they found (lives in Germany) was quite honest about their effectiveness and the 'death-trap' features such as the petrol engine etc. He lost lots of friends in them and was obviously quite moved by it all.

Several months ago I was introduced to a former Biber driver who is now living in Canada. He would like very much to contact the Biber driver who was in this TV program. IF you know of him, please drop me an e-mail.
