Should we also condemn Rowan Atkinson, Richard Curtis and Ben Elton for doing Blackadder Goes Forth? A hell of a lot more people died in that than on the RMS Titanic, and it was more recent too.
No, because as you well know they explored both emotional sides of the conflict especially in the last episode.
If they deal with the episode tastefully in a similar way Blackadder did then I will happily retract my statement, but the point still remains, why not do a September 11th special - both are tragic events, the only real difference is time scale which some people (not saying anyone on here or the writers of Doctor Who) seem to conveniently forget when it comes to the Titanic
