Ep 8 - Titanic - the ill-fated liner for tourists

We mark the 110th anniversary of the sinking of RMS Titanic with a tour of Titanic Belfast, the £multi-million visitor attraction built on the launch site of the ill-fated ship. The maritime theme continues with our ever-present segments designed to test even the hardiest of Titanoraks. Can Andrea guess Heidi's particularly abstract Where In The World destination? And which of the other Top Five Titanic-linked locations has Andrea explored? We discuss The Titanic Graveyard in Halifax, Nova Scotia; the Titanic Museum, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee; Titanic – the Artefact Exhibition in Las Vegas, Nevada; our very own Titanic Belfast and the Sea City Museum in Southampton, England.

Thanks for listening and see you next month!
