Nursing a pint of ‘The Iron Lady’ in the Falkland’s Victory Bar, I contemplated my future. Contract ending, I was unsure where to head next.

An attractive blonde lady climbed onto the free bar stool beside me. Ordering, she was clearly Scottish. A marine biologist by trade, she was on the islands as part of the research crew filming for David Attenborough’s next wildlife series. Conversation quickly stalled: a mixture of my severe lack of marine knowledge and an NDA she’d signed. Attenborough doesn’t muck around.
