For the ship in Voyage of the Damned, see Titanic (spaceship).

I never cared for the word impregnable. Sounds too much like unsinkable." "What's wrong with unsinkable?" "Oh, nothing, said the iceberg to the Titanic."The Doctor and Harry Sullivan (DW: Robot)

The RMS Titanic was a luxury ocean liner on Earth in the early 20th century noted as being the largest ship of its time. It is known famously for having been called "unsinkable", yet sinking on its maiden voyage in 1912.

The Doctor, Ace and Bernice Summerfield travelled to the Titanic tracking Huitzilin and were on the ship when it collided with the iceberg. (NA: The Left-Handed Hummingbird) El Ape, a temporary traveling companion of the Doctor, actually caused the ship to sink. (DWM: Follow That TARDIS!)

An issue of the Daily Mirror describing the disaster travelled to Gallifrey, where it was read by Borusa. Upon noticing this, the Doctor noted that he had nothing to do with the ship's destruction. (DW: The Invasion of Time)

Later the Doctor persuaded several people to not board the liner prior to its maiden voyage. (DW: Rose) The Doctor told Jabe Ceth Ceth Jafe that he had once been on a ship that "they said was unsinkable. I ended up clinging to an iceberg. It wasn't half cold." This seems a probable reference to his adventure on the Titanic. (DW: The End of the World)
