Story of Titanic – 40 years on

It was Forty years ago today when news of searching finally came to fruition.

Deep on the bed of the Atlantic Ocean the wreck of the Titanic was found at long, long last.

It’s been more than a century when the ship they said would never sink hit an iceberg on its maiden voyage and sank without trace in a space of three hours.

Around 1500 people lost their lives.  Emma Vardey takes a look at what is on show.
