This one is really spooky and when I visited Sweden a few years ago in the winter it really reminded me of this one!

Sung by June Tabor Produced by Brian Gulland for The First Composers Company Ltd. The following is taken from: http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~zierke/june.tabor/songs/acoldwind.html 'Spy Ship was a serial on BBC 2. A trawler went missing out of Hull called The Gaul and eventually she was found and it would seem that it had been sunk by a Russian submarine. The nets got caught. But then it seemed that there was something else going on and was it actually a Russian submarine that had sunk the trawler or was it a big cover-up? It was a fiction drama. This was a very compelling piece of drama writing. The plot was that a journalist had stumbled on that it might have been a British submarine. I don't know why I got asked to do it. I went to London on one of my brief excursions. The initial bit that was used on the screen was only a minute, a minute-and-a-half at most. It was when the BBC started releasing music for series, but it wasn't long enough for a single, so an extra chorus had to be written. The version here was what was released as a BBC single. On the B-side it was just the backing track.'
