Lights for Titanic at Lichfield memorial

More than 1,500 tea lights will be lit in Staffordshire tonight – one for every victim of the Titanic disaster.

The lights will be placed around the base of the ship's skipper Commander Edward Smith, in Lichfield's Beacon Park.

Cruise ships MS Balmoral and the Journey will also rendezvous at the scene of the sinking tonight ready for a memorial service to mark the 100th anniversary.
