Scoop Donovan, en route to film a Malta convoy, was aboard Lucky Lass, an old tramp steamer laden with a cargo of explosives. The ship hit a mine which tore off her bows and the engine broke down. Then, in a fog, a U-Boat surfaced beside her. Scoop started firing a Lewis gun as soon as the submarine's conning tower hatch opened.
