Title: The QE2 Queen of Ships Video
Post by: jdl on Sep 03, 2009, 02:12 PM

All,

Attached is a you tube upload of the Video (yes retro I know) Queen of Ships I think this is from circa the late 80's early 90's as the speed stripe is in full effect - no doubt our forum experts will be able to pin down a more precise exact release date !!

John

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Nice to see some familiar old faces, especially John Duffy.  Also nice to hear the old Elephant steak comment

Magnificent video - I have the VHS at home from back when it was for sale aboard.

Also, very very hard to imagine her sitting idle - she could OUTRUN a storm...

I love this video...got it on Amazon, new no less, a few years ago. It was so cool when I first saw it to see the storerooms and such, which weren't pictured in the brochures!

May have to pop it in the VCR, just for the retro effect...the whirring of the tape wheels...the now-foreign concept of rewinding...if we're gonna flashback...
