Titanic Pt9: The Long Hours Before Dawn

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.
