I love the story of Titanic and have read so much over the years about the ship and its' sinking . This version is extraordinarily cleverly written. Fellows took a subject that really has been filmed so much and his really clever writing creates a whole new depth to the story. The fact it goes back to the beginning at every episode makes it a masterpiece !!! I think I love this version just a tiny bit more than the 1997 version ( only just) . A truly brilliant and gripping watch !
