telegraph.co.uk	TITANIC, ITV1, PREVIEW Few TV dramas come so freighted with expectation as ITV1's four-parter Titanic. Not only does it commemorate the 100th anniversary of the world’s most dwelt-upon disaster but, scripted by Julian Fellowes, it invites comparison, inevitably, with Downton Abbey, as well as James Cameron’s vastly popular 1997 blockbuster Titanic. This opening episode begins with the embarkation of passengers in Southampton, and ends with their mid-Atlantic flight to the lifeboats two nights later. In between we meet a large cast of characters: in first class, Hugh, Earl of Manton (Linus Roache) and his rebellious daughter Lady Georgiana Grex (Perdita Weeks); in second class, Manton’s Irish lawyer John Batley (Toby Jones) and his firebrand wife Muriel (Maria Doyle Kennedy); and thereon down through the social strata to steerage passengers and crew. There are lots of rich Americans – Astors, Wideners, even a Guggenheim. But what’s lacking is any sense of drama, even of being aboard a ship, or, when catastrophe strikes, much air of urgency. That said, a glimpse of episode two – which goes back to the ship’s beginnings – promises more drama and depth. ...	22nd March 2012
