Titanic: Ship of Dreams

9. The Long Hours Before Dawn


Listen Later

Titanic’s chief baker pulls off a miraculous drunken escape. Fierce rows break out as to whether to go back and search for survivors. Jimmy McGann balances on top of an upturned lifeboat, while a British baronet offers money to the crew in another. And as the cries of the dying subside, the lucky ones wait desperately for sunrise…


A Noiser podcast production. Narrated by Paul McGann.


Featuring Josyann Abisaab, Stephanie Barczewski, Jerome Chertkoff, Julian Fellowes, Tim Maltin, Stephen McGann, Susie Millar, Claes-Göran Wetterholm.
