Although this may be an indication of how social attitudes have changed since 1953, it was controversial at the time that there were no women or children among the survivors. If you read "Death in the North Channel" then it was an appalling catalogue of errors. PatGallacher 14:45, 2005 July 21 (UTC)

I agree, and further, see no reason why Wikipedia has to be ground down into bland language for fear of some supposed POV. --mervyn 16:00, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

If a move like this is to be made, then surely she was the MV Princess Victoria, not the SS Princess Victoria. Or should we check this? What do people think? PatGallacher 16:29, 2005 July 23 (UTC)

I have added some information relating to the sinking and the Court of Inquiry. However, I'm not sure if the references are in the correct format - if not, could someone sort them out? WelshMatt 11:11, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
