Episode 15 - Spies in the South Pacific: The bombing of the Rainbow Warrior.

In July 1985, the Greenpeace ship ‘Rainbow Warrior’ was bombed while moored in the Port of Auckland, as it waited to lead a protest against nuclear testing in French Polynesia. Tragically, Greenpeace photographer, Fernando Pereira, was killed after becoming trapped in his cabin as it filled with water. While the attack seemed unprovoked, Greenpeace immediately pointed the finger at the French Government, who had wanted to stop the protests going ahead.
