I watched it as a take-off on the Posiedan Adventure, including the deaths along the way.

The one thing I didn’t catch is why Mr. Copper thought he’d get 10 years in prison if he stayed on board when the rescue team came to Titanic. I didn’t see him do anything illegal. Why’d he have to stay on Earth?

According to Wikipedia:

At the end of the episode, the Doctor teleports to Earth with the ship’s historian Mr. Copper (Clive Swift), who admits he is a salesman who lied about his credentials to travel. Before leaving in the TARDIS, the Doctor allows him to build a new life.

It seems that SciFi made a few cuts – including the scene containing Copper’s confession.

Silly SciFi.

That matches how I viewed it. I guessed it helped.
