Titanic: another new series!

I have seen the ads for a new series about the Titanic to be shown on ITV1.

Titanic - ITV1 Drama

Raises the question, do we really need another film dramatisation about the Titanic? Could they have spent the money on something else?

Any one see that documentary about the Germans who made a version of the "Titanic" during the 2nd World War with intention of using it as a propaganda film!

They could have given the Titanic story a new twist if they wanted to.
There are several alternative versions of what happened

RMS Titanic alternative theories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Titanic And Olympic Conspiracy Theory

The Titanic Conspiracy and the Federal Reserve
