Warspite and SS Paris among Cornwall's remembered wrecks

Which wreck around Cornwall would Dr. Clarke most like to see as a functioning ship?

Warspite is the famous answer, while the locally remembered SS Paris at Coverack is the more personal choice.

Warspite is the immediate choice among Cornish wrecks because of her importance to Royal Navy history. Dr. Clarke then offers the less famous SS Paris, wrecked at Coverack, as the ship he would most like to see intact. Material from the liner was reused in the local Paris Hotel and pub, and pictures of the vessel formed part of his family's experience of the place. Reuse and local memory kept the ship present in the community after its loss.
