Episode 64 - Titanic, part 1: Building The 'Unsinkable Ship'
About this episode
One summer evening in 1907, two men came together to discuss an idea that they hoped would change the world — or at least the world of maritime travel. Bruce Ismay, the managing director of the White Star Line, and Lord William Pirrie, chairman of the shipyard Harland and Wolff, hatched a plan to build several gargantuan ships unlike anything the world had ever seen before.
