SS Elysium

You may wish to consult Elysium (disambiguation) for other, similarly-named pages.

The SS Elysium, previously called the SS Bermuda, was a sea-faring ship.

It started out in 1958 as the SS Bermuda and used to transport oil. However, when oil prices radically increased in 1974, the ship was taken out of commission.

The Bermuda was going to be sold for scrap to the United States, but Australian billionaire publisher Lord Stanley Straker bought it in 2006. He converted it into a cruise ship, rechristened it the SS Elysium, and used it to sponsor "Over the Rainbow", a 3 month long around-the-world pleasure cruise.

When they reached Antarctica, the ship was captured by Cybermen operating in the Torus Antarctica. They were defeated by Ruby Duvall and the Seventh Doctor. (PROSE: Iceberg)
