Sadly I can't record two and watch one, and having been bored rigid by last week's episode there's no second chances on this ship.. Silent Witness and Homeland for me!
Think I'll do the opposite as this thread is so much fun!

Watch Titanic.
Watch Homeland on +1.
Watch Silent Witness on iplayer.
More unnecessary exposition about the lifeboats. Why would these chaps suddenly be having these conversations about the number of lifeboats when not only the Olympic, but scores of other ships had been getting fitted out with less than necessary for years? Once again, this is a blatant case of hindsight being forced into the retelling of the Titanic simply for the purposes of dramatic irony.
How many times has the word 'Catholic' been mentioned?
Also the family looking forward to a new life are clearly doomed!
I think the dichotomising of 'Catholic' and 'Protestant' tonight is to directly replace last week's 'Rich' versus 'Poor' (or rather Upper Class versus Everyone!). All Fellowes seems to do is set up social groups against each other with all the subtlelty of an iceberg to the starboard side.

Almost every character seems to be a 21st century liberal trapped in 1912 - "we are victims of religious discrimination", "isn't the class system awful" etc.

This week is meant to be better than last week. I hope it is.

Easy..they condensed it to 20 seconds!;)
They should've done that last week and aired a Downton Abbey repeat for the rest of the time.
My word
Everyone else can go down with the ship!

Had to play the religion card as the ship was built in Belfast, YAWN

EDIT: Just checked - Blair was lucky. He was removed from his post before the ship set sail.
