QE2 fan Posted April 18, 2006 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Last June when we were aboard QE2 on a Mediterranean cruise, there were 2 people filming all aspects of the ship. I asked one of them what channel it would be shown on and when. I was told it would be on Channel 4 (UK) later in the year, but as yet the programme had no name. I was wondering if anyone has seen this programme. A friend of mine says they recently saw a programme about the QE2, but not being really interested in cruising, they were unable to tell me what was shown or what channel it was on. Did anyone see this programme and was it the one filmed last June in the Med? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgans Posted April 19, 2006 #2 Share Posted April 19, 2006 About 6 weeks ago there was the cookery programme "Masterchef" which had the contestants cooking in the Lido Cafe and also for one of the Restaurants (can't remember which one .) There were several views of the ship and lots of shots around and about. I'm not sure when it was filmed, however and I recalll it was BBC 2. It was very interesting - so that could be a possibility.

cunardqueen Posted April 19, 2006 #3 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Wasnt the "Masterchef" prog filmed towards the end of the world cruise (last year) and if you were onboard in June it must have been some other programme, or possibly a new promotional video??? cheers Myles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant' remember exactly when it was transmitted. Seem to remember he loved the ship but didn't seem to be in a great hurry to repeat the experience. Hope that helps. Tim.

Sounds likely - there's a rather scathing Gruaniad review: http://arts.guardian.co.uk/screenburn/story/0,,1392443,00.html Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QE2 fan Posted April 19, 2006 Author #6 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Thanks for all your replies, but neither of the programmes mentioned was the one filmed last June. As was pointed out the Masterchef programme was filmed at the end of the World Cruise, and I saw the Alain de B. programme before we were onboard last year, so it looks like I'll just have to keep watch, as it probably hasn't been transmitted yet. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
