Episode description

On the night of April 14th, 1912, whilst most of her passengers had retired for the night, the RMS Titanic - the largest and most lavish ocean liner of its time - glided smoothly through the dark, icy waters of the North Atlantic Ocean. Suddenly, shortly before midnight, the ship’s lookouts spotted a massive iceberg emerge from the blackness of its path. News of the ship’s imminent danger quickly spreads amongst its crew, who try desperately to evade the disaster that was looming before them… But it was already far too late.


We all know how the rest of the story goes... Cue the collision, cue the terror, and cue the subsequent sinking of the infamously “Unsinkable” ship.


On the ocean floor, she now slept.


That night, the Titanic claimed the lives of approximately 1500 people.


One hundred and eleven years later…- She would claim five more.
