Acorn Media Australia are very proud to present historically based British Drama: I Remember Nelson.

Workshipped as a national saviour, Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson masterminded the naval victories that thwarted Napoleon's plans to invade Britain. Yet, in the midst of public adulation, rumours swirled about his private life. Nelson took a friend's wife as a mistress and even fathered a child by her in secret.

This lavish historical drama examines Nelson through the eyes of four people close to him: his wife, who feels bitter and betrayed but ultimately loving; his friend, who helplessly loses bold leadership but disdains his lifestyle, an ordinary seaman, who turns to his commander for inspiration while facing death. What emerges is an unconventional portrait of a complex figure and a study in the effects of fame.
