It's a story likely to go down as a legend of the sea - "hundreds of cannibalistic rats on a ghost ship on a collision course with Ireland."
The empty cruise liner has been drifting towards our shores for almost a year - and it's thought the rats on board may have been surviving by eating each other.
Hype over the ship's arrival has been building in recent days, however the vermin - and the ship - may have met a watery grave.
