So it was a stream of incorrect information that lead to some questionable decisions...
Going to France, in my view, was a logical thing to do. The Atlantic breakthrough had been achieved, and with Germanys' biggest naval victory to date in both world wars... one aspect of the film ''Sink the Bismarck'' that was accurate was the comment drawn out by both Sheppard (Kenneth More) and Lutjens (Karel Stepanack) that to return to Germany after sinking Hood could be seen as a defeat, and muddy what should be seen as the celebration of a major victory. Also going to France mean't that Bismarck would join the twins - and achieve the objective of Rheinubung in creating a formidable battle force.
