It has cost £97 million and taken three years to build.Mr Robinson said "This is better than anything else you will see in the world in relation to Titanic. We want to bring people to see what was achieved one hundred years ago".

In the queue to be among the first to see the attraction were Tom Cox from Brighton with some of his friends. He said he "couldn't wait" to get inside.

The Titanic departed from Southampton in April 1912 on her fateful maiden voyage, but she was built in Belfast.
