Sea Patrol I
List of episodes

The season introduced a new patrol boat, following the decommissioning of the original, Fremantle-class boat in the final scenes of season one. The new HMAS Hammersley (hull number 82) was of the Armidale class, reflecting the real-life changeover in the Australian fleet. The second season also featured the debut of a new main character, Able Seaman Rebecca "Bomber" Brown, as the boat's new cook.

Though advertised by the Nine Network as Sea Patrol II: The Coup,[1] episodes themselves bore no title other than Sea Patrol, and the ISAN number indicated that the episodes were merely episodes 14–26 of Sea Patrol.

Continuing the format from the first season, episodes generally moved a season-long story arc along. As the Nine Network marketing indicated, this arc involved a coup on the Samaru Islands, a fictional island nation close to Australia. In many ways, the story was evocative of Operation ANODE,[2] a peacekeeping mission to the Solomon Islands that has been called "the [operational] pinnacle for the Fremantle class" by the Australian Department of Defence.[3]

Main plot edit

The season-long story arc revolved around a political conflict in the fictional Samaru Islands, which was ultimately shown to be located approximately due east of Cairns.[4] Starting somewhere during a political campaign to elect the nation's president, the season ended literally on the day of the election.[5] Throughout the season, the crew of Hammersley encountered an increasing number of clues that someone was using the waters off northeast Queensland to stage a paramilitary coup of the sitting Samaran government. Ultimately, it became clear that someone meant to stop the impending election from proceeding according to the will of voters. Over the course of the season, Australian businessman, Ray Walsman – an apparent victim of the anti-government forces in the premiere episode – emerged as the leader of the insurgency. His aim was to secure lucrative mining rights from the government which would have been formed had the coup succeeded.[6]

In the season opener, the writers allowed one of the characters to directly reference the real-life events that inspired the story line. Following an initial rescue mission to the Samaru Islands in "The Dogs of War", Hammersley's captain tells his department heads that the Australian government has finalised a peacekeeping arrangement with the Samaran government, and that return visits are therefore likely. Charge says, "Great. That'd be the Solomons all over again."

Ongoing subplots edit

All main characters had at least one subplot which appeared in more than one episode. Among them were: Nav and ET's increasing problems in keeping their romantic relationship a secret, Bomber's anger-management issues, Spider's relationship with Carly Walsman, the negative impact of a naval career on Swain's marriage, the differing ways in which Buffer and Charge dealt with near-death experiences, Kate's relationship with SAS officer Jim Roth, Mike's struggle to choose the best way to advance his career, and ROs continued social isolation from his shipmates..

Production edit

 
HMAS Launceston, one of the Armidale-class boats used for filming Sea Patrol

The season was filmed on the Royal Australian Navy's new Armidale-class patrol boat. 42 days of the filming schedule were spent aboard HMAS Broome, with pickup shooting later performed aboard HMAS Launceston. The remainder of the 86 days of filming were at studios, and on location at the Gold Coast, Queensland.[2]

Reception edit

Storylines controversies edit

The series caused controversy among some officers of the Royal Australian Navy when they came to believe that "its raunchy storylines" were "making a mockery of the navy".[7] Controversy was caused when, in some episodes, there were hints of romance between RAN officers and seamen. These were said to make a mockery of the navy's strict non-fraterisation policy.

The amount of sex on the show is simply a bloody joke... It makes a mockery of the incredible lengths that the navy and Department of Defence have taken to ensure that interpersonal relationships are kept at a professional level... The reality is some of it is absolutely absurd

— Naval Association of Australia president, Les Dwyer, [7]

Some controversy was also caused with the storylines of the second season of Sea Patrol which feature a political coup in the fictional islands of Samaru.[8] While some critics embraced the new storylines of the show, some were worried that "It's a tricky business when TV dramas stray into real-world politics".[8]

Critical response edit

Reviews of the season were mixed. One reviewer said that the show had learned from its mistakes of "simplicity and stiffness" during its freshman season to deliver a season whose "most striking aspect" was its "naturalness".[2]

Another reviewer recommended the season to his readers as an overall improvement on the first, especially praising the dramatic possibilities inherent in the bigger Armidale-class bridge and the "more contemporary, plot-driven" story arc. But he still highlighted areas of possible improvement. Making the point that the show's dependence on the Australian Navy sometimes made it difficult for the show to indulge in interesting usage of dramatic license, he said that "McElroy All Media appears to have taken a "steady as she goes" approach to change rather than taking hold of the wheel and firmly jumping the shark with a tougher, grittier tone."[9]

Ratings edit

Ratings for this season successfully reversed the trend of the first season. Whereas the first year had been plagued by a generally downward trend, season two was characterised by gradually improving ratings. Only the Brisbane region exhibited a strong fall-off of viewers in the season's final weeks. Although no episode of the season scored as highly as season one's first week, the final five weeks held steady at 1.5 million viewers nationally. The last two episodes of the season gained well over half a million more viewers over the last two installments of season one.

Hammersley is sent to rescue aid workers during a coup in the Pacific nation of the Samaru Islands, but a recurring technical glitch causes Mike to demand NavCom for a Technical Operator on board the ship. After rescuing Ray Walsman and his associates they rendezvous with another ship to collect their new transfer, E.T. His return is welcomed by all except Nav, as they can't officially pursue a relationship on board the same ship, and is angry that he didn't refuse the transfer.

The interception of a foreign fishing vessel turns into a life threatening pursuit when Charge is stabbed by one of the crew they are trying to help. He is flown to a hospital and news eventually travels that he will make a full recovery.

Guest actors: Brad McMurray, Che Timmins, Jimmy Christiansen, Byron Hulbert, Russell Ingram, Rico Lescott, Troy Hunter, Malachi Waters.

Hammersley rescues 2 men who claim their boat was stolen. Tracking the course of the stolen boat, Hammersley encounters the island home of Ray Walsman and his daughter Carly. The crew eventually find the boat adrift with a dead man on board, and are unable to ascertain how he died.

Meanwhile Charge is due to be awarded a medal for bravery after being stabbed, but is having trouble coming to terms with it secretly. Swain soon learns that Charge never went to see a shrink to deal with any post-incident trauma, and does his best to help Charge come to terms with the attack. Hammersley gets an emergency call from Ray Walsman: Carly has collapsed from an infection due to a heart condition and needs to be taken to hospital on the mainland, leaving Buffer, Bomber and Spider on board the boat with the body. As the ship heads for home, Swain realises Carly seems to be medically fine, and when confronted she admits she faked her condition to spend time with other people and a night on the mainland. When the 2 men rescued try to swim away from the ship, they soon admit they and the dead man are all smuggling eastern brown snakes, as Bomber, Spider and Buffer find their lives when the snakes get loose. With her knowledge of snakes, Bomber is able to save the three of them and Buffer tells her that as long as he sees more of the cool headed version of her, Bomber has still got a future in the Navy.

They recover the survivors but Kate and Nikki are in dire jeopardy when 3 of them turn the rescue into a hostage situation, and an innocent child in need of medical help fights for survival. E.T. struggles to keep his feelings for Nav in check as control of the ship is slowly taken away and they are ordered to sail for Papua New Guinea or risk deaths.

Mike and the guys try to get the ships course headed for a rendezvous with an SAS team capable of retaking the ship but the hostage takers realise the deception and start a gunfight in the engine room.

RO, feeling ostracized by his shipmates is starting to suffer flashbacks, and is convinced that his drinks must have been spiked during a night out with some Swedish backpackers. Later, the body of an apparently murdered young man is brought aboard Hammersley and RO recognises him as one of the backpackers, but worried he may in some way be involved in the death, he keeps the information to himself. Hammersley tries to find out what has happened to the man, and during the search encounters a stranded fisherman, and offer their assistance, the fisherman is reluctant to accept their help, but following an altercation in the galley between RO and ET, Mike Flynn insist the XO and RO provide an escorts to the nearest port, thereby presenting the ideal chance to get RO off the ship and for the XO to find out what is going on. RO soon becomes suspicious of the fisherman and as his memory comes back realises this is the man who killed the backpacker and tried to kill him. Now he needs to convince the XO of his story, and get Hammersley to return in time before they all face a fiery death.

196"Birds"Ian BerryMatt Ford5 May 2008 (2008-05-05)1.287

Hammersley’s crew have been joined by an agent from the Marine Protection Agency, Campbell Fulton, and he accompanies them when they board a FFV fishing for Trochus. The boarding appears to be mostly standard until they make a grisly discovery; one of the fisherman has been locked inside a barrel, and dies shortly after discovery.

Back on Hammersley, Campbell Fulton has taken a liking to Nicky, but so far she has been brushing off his advances, so when he overhears her talking with ET he sees an opportunity to use the information about their relationship to his own advantage. Later in her cabin, he tries to kiss her but when she pushes him away and threatens to report him, he uses her relationship with ET as a threat to keep her mouth shut, and forces himself onto her. She manages to fight him off, but knowing she has to keep her feelings for ET secret she can’t tell anyone what he has done.

Back on the FFV, Swain warns that the dead fisherman could be the result of bird-flu, so ET is none too happy about being assigned to sail the boat to port especially when Campbell Fulton is assigned with him. When a fight breaks out on the FFV between Fulton and ET that results in ET becoming trapped below deck the crew are forced to overcome their worries about the bird flu and help their friend. With ET trapped and water coming in through a breach in the hull, Swain and the CO fear they may need to resort to drastic measures to free him before he drowns. As the rescue becomes desperate it becomes obvious to everyone that Nicky has feelings for ET beyond that of just friends, and she has no choice but to tell the XO the truth about the attack by Campbell Fulton.

His pursuit leaves him locked in a cargo container which soon puts to sea. The following day, and Hammersley is due to sail, but no-one can find Buffer until Charge notices a voicemail from Buffer which goes some way to explaining his disappearance, and Hammersley sets out to find what has happened to him.

Buffer decides to follow the mercenaries to their camp, and is surprised to see Ray Walsman is running the operation. Using his phone to take photos and gather evidence, just as his girlfriend calls and the noise alerts the mercs to his presence. Taken prisoner by the mercs, Walsman orders him to be killed.
