Pip Hare, 50, was born in Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire and grew up in Suffolk - where she learned to sail on the River Deben.

Her food has been entirely prepared by her team and Hare will eat between 3,500 and 4,500 calories a day.

When asked what she would do about sleeping, Hare said: "You sleep for about 20 minutes and maybe in the southern ocean when there's no traffic around and the weather is very stable you might be able to sleep for an hour or an hour and a half."

Hare said she was often asked if she got lonely during her sailing.

Telling the story as a musical is "the best way of accessing the heartache and the torment and the isolation" of the victims, co-writer Jeanie O'Hare told BBC News.
