The most important naval action seen during the First World War was, of course, the Battle of Jutland.

The date was the 31st May 1916. A trap had been set by the Germans.

Just off the coast of Jutland in Denmark, the largest nautical battle of the First World War was about to take place. The battle, involving 100,000 men and 250 ships, would last close to 2 days.

But who threw the first punch? And did Britain actually win the fight?
