He mentioned some program of his that was sinking, like the Titanic, whose last radio transmission was ‘God save the Queen’.

That would have been odd too, since Queen Victoria died in 1901 and the Titanic went down in 1912.

I cannot imagine a Brit in 1912 saying ‘God save the Queen’. They were on their second king, George V by then.
