Titanic

Did anyone watch it last night. Is it worth giving up an hour to see it on catch up. I don´t mind someone telling me the spoiler .... after being on the telly and in the cinemas so many times did they manage to miss that bloody iceberg

Watched the first half hour then got bored and watched the Voice on i-player instead. (Same folk as did Downton Abbey I believe).

Wasnt no iceberg, It was a container that fell of a ship 3 weeks before, They tried to keep it quiet, It was fullof blow up dolls, Heading for clapham,

Oh inflatables, like balloons. maybe we should merge threads.

not sure if it was repeated again tonight
OH was watching something before he went out to work

something about it being based on the engineers notes and that they did actually manage to move off after hititng the iceberg and it was that that caused more water to flood in
apparently if they had stayed where they were it maybe wouldn't have sunk (so fast)?

'cos...

Bloke went to the Doctors with a lettuce jammed up his arse. Doctor said "bend over, I can see a little bit of lettuce, bloke said, "THATS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG"

That just made my Rim twitch

Epileptic lettuces.. great for seizure salads.

Told the joke to a bloke about the Epileptic in a bath, having a fit and I threw me washing in. He said, " you bassa my brother was Epileptic and he died in the bath, having a fit", I said "so sorry mate, didn't know, feel really bad, what happened"

He choked on a sock.

Totaly off topic, Great stuff, We should have a competition, See who can be the farthest off, Jokes in the titanic thread is a good start, I shall put one in the doctors surgery about water tight doors,

Ooo, hope the women dont think i'm on about loose flaps

Whats the difference between a nurse and a helicopter??

Not everyone has been up on a helicopter!

Excuse me Barmaid, do you have any Helicopter crisps,
No just Plane.

You boys really need to get a life, I mean, WTF. Is nobody in control?

Nice interactive timeline on the breaking up of the ship here...Sinking of Titanic

Always been interested in the titanic, It will reveal a lot more yet, ,

I don't think this cruise ship is meant to go to Titanic's resting place...

BBC News

Watched a piece on TV the other night, They wanted to drop a transponder on the Titanic, So a meter of old railway line was fastened to it, then pushed over the side, How long do you think it took to reach the bottom, 1 hour 15 minutes, Thats what you call deep, ,
