This is the second of 2 videos, apparently. Some interesting stuff there, but a lot of chaff as well. The dive on the Invincible starts at 27:00 approximately.

On the first of the 2 videos, 38:00 is interesting. Shortly after 39:00 it is alleged that there wasn't enough room in the BC's magazines to store the 50% overload of cordite carried at Jutland (so where did they put it?). This sounds like an additional factor, beyond that discussed in the second video above (open Clarkson cases in advance, stockpile in working chamber and turret, etc.).
