Description

On a cold April night in 1912 the lives of over 2000 people are changed forever. This is the remarkable story of just a few of them.

TITANIC 100th ANNIVERSARY EDITION - Including a cameo performance by the last survivor of the RMS Titanic, Millvina Dean.

Welcome Aboard! - April 1956 sees an d man and his two grandchildren searching in a dusty old attic for material to help with a school project when they come across a chest. Little did the children know that the chest held memories for their grandfather of one of the most significant disasters in maritime history. Artefacts that brought memories of the fateful night in April 1912 when the RMS Titanic sank to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean taking with her over 1500 souls.

Titanic - Pride of the White Star dramatically tells the story not only of the events of that terrible night but some of the lesser-known stories of heroism and personal sacrifice of some of her passengers and crew. It tells also the story of how three items came to give them a common link to our hero Charles Joughin, a chief baker on Titanic, and now a grandfather of James and Susan. He is now an old man helping a new generation to understand the events and lessons of that tragic night.

Fantastic

What a fantastic app. I cannot believe how cheap this was to purchase given the quality of the music, narratives and content overall. I sat with a couple of friends listening to this with surround sound, totally amazing. Thank you so much!

A mixed bag. Good narration spoilt by some dreadful acting and technical frailties.

From the existing reviews, I was expecting much more. Perhaps because I come from a media background, I set my standards higher than other reviewers. But it fell way below the level of professionalism I expected.

By far my biggest criticism is the standard of the acting. It is often wooden with some of the most dreadful attempts at accents I have ever heard. The Scottish one is, frankly, diabolical.

If you know nothing about the Titanic Story, you'd probably find it just about ok, but for someone like me who was fascinated in the ship long before it became quite so famous, it falls way below the level I would have liked.

Apart from that, it appears upside down on my iPad and it seems almost impossible to contact the developers to tell them that.
I note that some of the reviewers have raved about the music. i find that odd. almost all of it is buried by dialogue.

Apart from it being upside down on my iPad, it freezes on there all the time. The only way I have heard it is on my iPod touch.

Pretty poor show all round.

Love it. Get it today!

Love this story, scary at the end, played through my sound system, Top app , great value. Saw the musical version of this app, it was simply incredible. Can't recommend enough. Love the face Millvena is on it.
