GETTING CLOSE.... SPEAKERS ANNOUNCED

With less than a week to go now before we set off on the crossing on the QE2, things are getting exciting!

 

Someone posted a message on Cruisecritic.com boards saying that he had an email from Cunard that said the speaker guests on our crossing are going to be:

  • Brian Hoey - Royal Author.
    • Looking on Amazon he seems to have written a lot including: At Home with the Queen: Life Through the Keyhole of the Royal Household , Anne: The Princess Royal , The Royal Yacht "Britannia": Inside the Queen's Floating Palace , Monarchy: Behind the Scenes With the Royal Family , Her Majesty: 50 Regal Years  , Charles & Diana: The 10th Anniversary 
  • Dr Peter Dean - Forensic Scientist/Coroner also advises on TV shows such as Silent Witness and Waking the Dead.
    • Looking on Google he has also been the coroner on some well known cases like the Julie Ward (lady murdered in Kenya)
  • Stephen Fox - Author of American & British Social History.
  • Theodore Scull - Author and Travel Writer.
    • I have mentioned him in an earlier entry. He is a well known writer and has a long relationship with Cunard and seems to be a regular contributor.

 

I think the Brian Hoey and Theodore Scull will be ones I will definitely want to see. Hopefully Brian Hey will be talking about the Royal Yacht (that we recently visited in Edinburgh). Pics of the yacht on my website: http://www.bembridge.co.uk/royal_yacht_2004.htm
