- In the summer of 1989, TV personality Shaw Taylor and his wife Jane took a trip aboard CANBERRA for this popular ITV holiday programme, hosted by Judith Chalmers. The voyage was Cruise 908, named the "Sunshine and Cities" cruise.
Went on the canberra 4 times and on the second trip which was a cricket themed cruise as was the third and fourth one met and played cricket in organised matches with my hero Dennis Amiss who was one of the cricket celebs,. Best moment of my life
I have fond memories of this ship, I was 13 and with my mum and dad sailing around The Mediterranean, good times.
I’m in that video!! Just a quick glimpse as I Congo past the camera 😄
I was on that cruise too!
Gawd, I worked on the Canberra for a short time in the early 90s, as a photographer.
Blimey the cost for 1989 is absolutely enormous and completely out of reach for the vast majority
Not for the faint of wallet. The “cabin we had” is only worth £5,127.79 per person at 2023 prices. That’s over £10.25k per cabin. (Bank of England Inflation Calculator, £1 in 1989 = £2.51 in July 2023.)
Ummm tv personality might be a clue. Do you think they had a ‘simple’ cabin? I can tell you know that cabin for 1982 was not a normal cabin. Firstly individual beds and not bunk beds? That much space between them you could have fitted another double bed. That cabin would have been in the old first class section.
Love being lazy on a ship. Nothing like it
