It’s the early 1970s, and a young British family is attempting to sail around the world when catastrophe strikes. The Robertsons have sold everything they own to embark on this trip. But their epic odyssey soon turns into a desperate fight for their lives in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Dougal and Lyn, their teenage son Douglas, 12-year-old twins Sandy and Neil, and young hitchhiker Robin find themselves hundreds of miles from land, with few supplies, no radio contact, and surrounded by sharks. Drifting in the vast emptiness, they must rely on their instincts and harness the elements to survive. Yet even with deadly predators circling, they discover that sometimes their worst enemy is...themselves.

Introducing Heart
Sonny and Terry shared the same heart. They died the same way. And there’s one other thing these two men shared: a wife. A heart transplant transforms Sonny Graham’s fate when he reaches out to the widow of his heart donor. What follows is trumpeted by local papers as a miraculous love story. But court filings expose a more troubled reality. Friends and family report a worrying change in Sonny. Then, he dies by suicide—the exact same fate, it turns out, as his heart donor, Terry Cottle. The families of the two men are suddenly bound together by disturbing questions. Others speculate that Sonny’s new heart might have been carrying Terry’s traumas. Are the two men’s deaths just a coincidence, or are there darker forces at work?Heart is an Apple Original podcast produced by Plan B and Blanchard House.
