I know who I would like to invite. I also know who I would have to invite. Say no more.

An undertakers convention in working clothes could help set the mood for fellow passengers.

I like the way you think Flecc. Are you sure you're not from Glasgow?

No, but my mum's mother was.

Maybe I've inherited something catching!

Everyone involved in the Titanic industry - the dreadful film, the endless, vacuous documentaries, books, videos etc etc etc. Of course, I would also invite the iceberg!

No matter which way I think about, it just seems to be in bad taste, a maritime disaster turned into a floating theme park............JHMO

I agee, over 1500 people died in that tragic incident.

Those poor people who lost their lives deserve to rest in peace knowing that lessons were learnt and not that people will be cashing in at their expense forever more.

This change in the way the disaster was viewed started when the grave of the Titanic was allowed to be explored and items removed from it, something always traditionally regarded as in bad taste. The rather silly film Titanic also devalued the status of the disaster by turning into an entertainment of dubious value. So I suppose that with the defilement already a fact, this sort of reconstruction was always bound to follow at some time.
