WW2 HD Colorization — The Sinking of HMS Barham, 1941

Incredible restored newsreel of the sinking of HMS Barham, off the coast of Egypt in 1941. HMS Barham was a British Queen Elizabeth-class battleship launched in 1914 and commissioned into the Royal Navy in 1915. Named after Admiral Charles Middleton, Lord Barham, she served during both World Wars. In World War I, she participated in the Battle of Jutland in 1916, surviving the intense naval engagement. During the interwar years, HMS Barham underwent significant modernization, including improvements to her armor, gunnery, and propulsion systems. In World War II, she operated extensively in the Mediterranean, supporting Allied forces in campaigns like Crete and Malta. Tragically, HMS Barham met her end on November 25, 1941, off the coast of Egypt. She was torpedoed by the German submarine U-331 under Kapitänleutnant Hans-Diedrich von Tiesenhausen. The battleship capsized and suffered a catastrophic magazine explosion, killing over 860 crew members. The dramatic sinking, caught on film, became one of World War II’s most iconic naval disasters.
