A row has broken out over the name of the latest Navy submarine as the original name may offend the French. Proposal to change it from Agincourt to Achilles.

What's wrong with Subby McSubface? :ROFLMAO:

As BM says, but why name a submarine which correct me if I am wrong is named after a battle on land in France. Why not really upset the French and call it Trafalger.
That said Achilles, 😳. The way we build sea going stuff at the moment it will be more of an Achilles heel.
