1797 A mutiny in the British navy spread from Spithead to the rest of the fleet.

1933 The modern legend of the Loch Ness Monster was born when a sighting made local news. Several London newspapers sent correspondents to Scotland, and a circus offered a £20,000 reward for capture of the beast.

1953 Football legend Sir Stanley Matthews, at the age of 38, won an FA Cup winners' medal as Blackpool came back from trailing 3-1 to beat Bolton 4-3. In recognition of the impact he had on the match, it become known as the 'Matthews Final'.

1969 The passenger liner Queen Elizabeth II set off from Southampton on its first voyage.

1982 The Argentinean battleship General Belgrano was torpedoed by the British submarine HMS Conqueror during the Falklands War. The crew of 368 seamen perished and there was considerable criticism in Britain as the ship was sailing outside the 200-mile exclusion zone at the time.

1997 Following Tony Blair's victory in the general election, John Major announced that he was stepping down as leader of Britain's Conservative Party.

2010 The death of actress Lynn Redgrave, OBE, daughter of actor Sir Michael Redgrave and sister to actress Vanessa Redgrave.

2014 71 year old Max Clifford, the 'master media manipulator and publicisit' and the man behind many of the tabloid scoops of the past 30 years will be sentenced later today. He was found guilty, on 28th April 2014, of eight counts of indecent assault on women and girls as young as 15 over a period of 20 years. Clifford became the first person to be convicted under the high profile 'Operation Yewtree', sparked by abuse claims against Jimmy Savile.'
