    That was my initial thought, they're reacting the movie Adrift. Adrift II, coming to a news channel near you very soon.

    Oh, yes, Leicestershire's w@nkhole, par excellence. I blame it on all the students here, especially the foreign ones (i.e. those that don't come from Loughborough)

Sayonara Mary Celeste crew. All the stuff about half full wine glasses etc was just urban myth. Sorry to ruin the story. Don't hate me.

    They could have been picked up by an Iranian gunboat. You know how cr@p Iranian sat-navs are!
