"Something wrong with their bloody ships?"

"Chatfield, there seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today."

Admiral Lord Beatty's comment to the report that the "Princess Royal" had blown up, and after the sudden explosions and sinkings of the "Indefatigable" and "Queen Mary", at the Battle of Jutland.
