Apparently, Pru, he was a fitter (or something like that) at Harland and Wolff shipyard.
Tenuous enough for you ??

I;ve always been fascinated by the Titanic but it's warn thin lately.
The best book I read was how the Titanic didn''t actually sink until during WW2.

Answer revealed Pru; Len was a welder at the Titanic ship builders!
Clever idea for a connection and quite a good show.

Okay the Titanic sank 100 years ago hundreds of lives lost, it struck an Iceberg, they thought it was unsinkable blah blah blah. It's getting boring even Channel 5 did a program last night and did Nazi Titanic, if you want to watch a Titanic movie in 34 mins then here it is.

I don't think so JK - it's down as a three-part series starting this Friday on BBC1 at 8.30. Seems a bit odd. I agree about the 1952 series - quite engaging.
