Default [OT] Rising sea levels?

I know that sea levels are predicted to rise as a result of global
warming but this week's "Radio Times" seems to be pushing the idea to a
new level. For tonight's documentary on Channel 5 about HMS
"Illustrious" the blurb states:

"This documentary series follows its naval crew as they embark on a
four-month deployment that will take them across the Mediterranean,
through the Suez Canal and ultimately on to Afghanistan."

That'll have to be quite some sea level rise over 4 months :-)

I'd like to see how they manage that!
