Season 1, Episode 2
5/10
A decent story, but, very predictable!
21 October 2016
The second episode of "One Step Beyond" starts as young English woman Grace Montgomery (Barbara Lord) begins having nightmares of drowning in the ocean, she is however surprised when her husband Eric Farley (the great Patrick Macnee) announces that he has planned a honeymoon trip for the two of them aboard the Titanic!.

This one is pretty predictable from start to finish, and everything that I thought was going to happen pretty much did! The ending much like the first story feels rather forced and abrupt, this one however i think may be worse tho. It was nice to see a young Patrick Macnee here who would go on to appear in a billion other things.

The closing narrative by John Newland features him explaining about a book written in 1898, which was about a huge ship pretty much just like the Titanic which hit an ice berg and sank, that ship in the book was called the Titan. As another reviewer stated One has to wonder why this story wasn't used instead of the one they choose.
