Since its sinking in 1912, dozens of myths and
conspiracy theories have circulated about The Titanic \u2013
from the actions of crew and passengers, to how the
tragedy could have been avoided. Titanic expert Tim

He is also one of the world\u2019s leading experts on the Titanic and the author of three books on the subject. He co-wrote and presented with Jeremy Vine the landmark and award-winning BBC Radio 2 live broadcast, Titanic, minute by Minute.
