A few years back someone by the name of Mensen Bound presented a show on the 64 gun ship HMS Agamemnon, I believe it was on the History Channel.
Does anybody know what the show was called?

The name is Mensun Bound. He is a marine archaeologist, with an academic post (Triton Senior Research Fellow in Marine Archeology) at one of the Colleges of Oxford University. There is an entry for him in Wikipedia.

I have not seen his TV program on Agamemnon. He was part of a team working on the Elizabethan-period Alderney wreck, shown on BBC TV a few nights ago.

I read Anthony Deane's "Nelson's Favourite: HMS Agamemnon at War 1781-1809" several years ago, and enjoyed it very much.
