Know of a similar story with a Britannia, circa. late '50's, door seal plugged with blankets, then water thrown over them which froze and successfully plugged the gap.
This does seem to be a bit more then simply a leaking seal tho'. 1 1/2 inches gap, if the Daily Wail are to be believed - and we do believe them, don't we ? !!
