I think her set of priorities was questionable. She wouldn't wait. She wouldn't allow the boat to wait until more people came on the deck, even if they were men, and got on board. She insisted on going when there were only twelve of them in it.

The first and second class, actually, were treated in a fairly similar way on the Titanic. I think one first class woman died. And I think a couple of women in second class died. But otherwise, they all got off. The really scandalous treatment was steerage.

I think there are people who do not see the rules as applying to them. I mean, I always remember once I was in Ronda with my mother and brothers, and we were going in to see a bullfight. And there were crowds and police and this and this and this. And there was a message saying in Spanish, pedestrians this way, whatever. And my mother was marching us in the opposite direction.

And I said, but mummy, it says pedestrians this way. She said, they don't mean us, dear. And I never forgot that because I thought, oh, I get it. There are rules, but they don't apply to everyone. And I can't say that much in life has taught me different.

I think stories that illustrate the wheel of fortune, how you can be up one minute and down the next, always have a certain fascination.

I'm not saying he wasn't a brave man. I think he was. I don't think any of his mistakes were deliberate or unkind, but they were costly. He had this theory that the men were going to jump into the sea and swim out to the half-full boat. Well, with the temperature of the sea, the men were going to last about a minute. in the water.

And the business of not letting, you know, 15- and 16-year-old boys onto the lifeboat, I don't think he was a bad man at all. But those were errors of judgment that cost many lives. A lot more people should have got off that ship in the boats they had. And the fact that they sailed away not even half full
