BBC's Vigil sparks interest in Submarine thrillers but which classic is your favourite?

In what promises to be a feat of claustrophobic drama, new BBC drama Vigil is preparing for launch with a special bank holiday double bill.

And where better to set such a tense thriller than on a nuclear submarine?

The six-part series will see Suranne Jones take on the role of DCI Amy Silva, who is sent aboard the HMS Vigil to investigate a mysterious death, all while tense relations between police, the navy and British security services reach an all-time high.

Vigil is the latest in a long legacy of TV and film set aboard a submarine, with iconic cinematic moments such as Das Boot and The Hunt for Red October blazing the trail.

Which is your favourite submarine thriller? Let us know in our survey below.
