- Navy vessel from Germany engaged in portraying Darth Vader in London settings
A German naval vessel brought amusement to the British press with its musical choice. The corvette "Braunschweig" blared Darth Vader's theme from "Star Wars" as it docked on the Thames, as reported by BBC and featured a video clip.
The ship served as a visitor in the metropolis for several days. A navy representative confirmed to the German Press Agency that "the music was played as it entered London." They added that the commander had full discretion over the selection, which held no deeper significance.
BBC shared the clip on platform X, adding a laughing-crying emoji, "Here's what went down on the Thames... Turn on the sound!" The "Telegraph" also covered the event. In the video, a few men can be spotted on deck near the Tower Bridge as "The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme)" plays.
The "Telegraph" also reported about the incident, crediting the unusual music choice to the German naval vessel. The BBC's coverage of the event sparked laughter among its viewers, with many commenting on the unexpected choice of music from "Star Wars" by the BBC.
