Title: The Titanic Subtitle: Voices from the BBC Archive Author: Mark Jones Narrator: Tim Pigott-Smith Format: Original Recording Length: 2 hrs and 28 mins Language: English Release date: 03-03-12 Publisher: BBC Worldwide Limited Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 19 votes Genres: History, 20th Century Publisher's Summary: The RMS Titanic sailed from Southampton en route for New York on her maiden voyage with 2,228 passengers and crew on board. On 14 April, 1912, at twenty minutes before midnight, sailing at almost full speed, she struck an iceberg and sank in just two and a half hours. Over 1500 lives were lost. This is the story of a great tragedy described by the surviving passengers, officers, and crew who were on board that night. Firsthand accounts help to explain why so few of the passengers took to the lifeboats and later describe the miraculous survival of those forced to jump into the icy waters of the North Atlantic. The story of the Titanic is ultimately one of simple human loss and these laconic Edwardian voices bring it alive.
