I was on English Rose, so that would explain the skymap showing during landing. They also tried to put on the charity video, but couldn't get it to play over the skymap. I have visions of the evil computer system in the movie Airplane 2 taking hold of the IFE.

As for Elvis, I had to wait until we were over Land's End until he appeared!

I guess 15 years ago, some programmer thought it would be a cutesy touch to throw in a few graphics. Bravo.

Ye gods! Why did they bother when there are already several well known shipwrecks on the VS website... Like the rewards booking process...

Given that the same info is shown on the BA version, something Panasonic installed?
