Sailors from HMS Iron Duke enjoying a night out on St Mary’s on Saturday were recalled to the ship after causing mayhem in the island’s pubs.
High-spirited crew from the Royal Navy Frigate were summoned by Naval Police shortly before 11pm ? and won’t be allowed on shore again on Sunday.
Half the 180-strong crew were chatting up the Island’s women as if they hadn’t been ashore for years - but one Officer told ScillyNews it was more like five days.
