If it was anything like the movie, when the lifeboats returned, almost everyone were dead and frozen.
if they went back 15 minutes earlier they would have been swamped by panicking people.

Doctor Who - The Vault is a great big book covering everything Who since 1963 (until 2013)

Cameron wanted it to be as much 100% factual based on what they knew from the survivors stories, boat's layout and how it was found. The only thing fabricated was the story between Jack and Rose (and some other story beats)....but as far as the ship and the disaster....I'm pretty sure was spot on.
