for hundreds of years, gibraltar has been a thorn in the side of uk-spanish relations. both claim sovereignty, and attempts by the two nations to iron out their differences have repeatedly failed. now with brexit approaching, british people here are worried that outside the eu single market, trade and travel will become harder and threaten not just their economy, but their >> for the first time in three stormy days, ernest danino and his customs agents can go back out on patrol. they're looking primarily for contraband cigarettes, which are cheaper in this british overseas territory, so they're often smuggled into spain. the spanish authorities are also on the lookout. >> we try to stay in each other's waters. sometimes that doesnt happen, especially from their side. but we have a good working relationship when it comes to anti-smuggling and rescue operations. on day-to-day patroling, we have very little contact with the spanish authorities. >> but there are contacts which are not so friendly as well? >> sometimes, yes. >> to danino and every gibraltarian, the border is

anger as gibraltar is left out of brexit transition. gibraltar, we do not hear a lot about what is going on there and their views. we don't. i did actually look at the draft transitional agreement and gibraltar was not mentioned. but there is time. do not panic! there is plenty of time to actually come to a relationship for gibraltar. it is also interesting that spain is saying, what about us? actually, i am not sure that spanish position is very sound one because we are negotiating with the european union. but some deal will be done. you can understand them being edgy about all of this. now they have got this. and the eu gave spain the veto. now, that will have to be sorted out as well and i that will have to be sorted out as welland i am that will have to be sorted out as well and i am sure gibraltar do not see themselves in the whole mix. that is horrible. it is all very much of a mess. but whether it will actually use the veto is a different issue. but the habit on the table, and whether the user or not we do not know but they have

at a given point west of gibraltar, the british fleet would divide. they would proceed in opposite directions. then the second half would reverse its course and follow the first, passing gibraltar 24 hours behind. thus with clock-like precision, the combined operations would begin with simultaneous landings at casablanca, iran, algiers. iran and algeers. then the occupation of tunisia from which we could cut romel's supply lines across the mediterranean. next trap and destroy romel's africa core between our allied forces and the british army. >>> thus, one arm would be amputated and supply lines around the cape of good hope would be shortened by half through winning control of the mediterranean. north africa would be ours with bases from which to stabbed at the heart of the axis citadel. those were the main objectives of the plan called "acrobat." in both convoys, the men kept fit, not knowing the task that lay ahead. for most of them, this voyage was a new experience. they had never been so far from home before. >> that's certainly true of me. my nam
