Lecture Lunch - Titanic – A Night of Ice

Thursday 12th February 2026

11.00am

Join Steve Herra, former QE2 Purser, Royal Naval Reservist, and a third-generation Cunard employee, for his fascinating lecture exploring lesser-known stories from the Titanic.

Discover why the Californian captain ignored distress rockets, who the “Titanic Orphans” were, and why Michel Navratil sailed under an assumed name. With a lifelong interest in ships and maritime history, Steve brings unique insight into this iconic tragedy.

Coffee at 11am, followed by lecture and a two-course lunch served in Jermyn’s House, set in the heart of the Gardens.
