From the Grauniad website:
One version of the report, which was shown in various forms between March 31 and April 2, ends with a close-up of a finger pushing a red button marked “Fire”. But the BBC documentary shows that Splendid’s missiles are fired by computer.
One HMS Splendid crew member tells the BBC: “A left mouse push fires it. Kinda crazy really. We actually asked for a great big red button, but they wouldn’t give us one.”
That’s up there with amplifiers that go to 11, and power showers with emergency stops. I want one.
