Titanic1 100 years on

Summary

16 April 2012

A cruise ship has retraced2 the Titanic's route across the North Atlantic exactly 100 years after the liner sank there. The passengers and crew held a remembrance ceremony at the spot where 1500 people lost their lives. 

Reporter

Jon Kay

Report

It's been a blustery voyage at times for the MS Balmoral crossing the Atlantic carrying 1300 passengers.

Some of them relatives of people who travelled the same route on Titanic a century ago; others, just fascinated by the history and mystery of what happened to her.

Now they are all coming together at the very spot where Titanic sank to be led in prayer on the decks overlooking the stern of the cruise ship.

Wreaths of flowers will be thrown into the ocean directly above the wreck3 site and then this ship's band will play 'Nearer My God To Thee', the hymn4 said to have been played by Titanic's band as she sank into the cold, dark, icy water exactly 100 years ago.
