In this interview from the BBC series entitled "Survivors of the Titanic," Commander Lightoller—second officer on board the RMS Titanic—gives his version of events on the fateful night in April 1912. According to Lightoller, this tragic event could have potentially been avoided if the bridge had received a very important warning message. The interview was originally conducted on November 1, 1936.
