An extraordinary new TV production inspired by the hundreds of untold stories of those aboard the Titanic.

As we look towards our Titanic season in April, we present this new production, written by Oscar-winning screenwriter Julian Fellowes. Titanic is the extraordinary re-telling of that doomed voyage, weaving action, mystery and romantic narratives featuring fictional and historical characters, before coming together in an explosive finale. While James Cameron's 1997 film was primarily a love story between the two central characters, BAFTA-winning producer Nigel Stafford-Clark was inspired by the hundreds of untold stories of those aboard, and the drama provides a unique portrait of the society which gave birth to the liner, and which was heading as obliviously towards its own nemesis in 1914 as Titanic was towards its iceberg.
We are pleased to announce that the first two episodes will now be screened (96min) and that cast member Perdita Weeks will join Julian Fellowes, producers Nigel Stafford-Clark and Simon Vaughan, and director Jon Jones on the panel for the Q&A afterwards. This event will now finish at 20:30. Presented in association with BAFTA
