Thanks for letting us know - I had been looking. Some very interesting speakers - always good to check the biogs of the less well known speakers.

Is there a difference between insight lecturers and the enrichment programme?

The enrichment programme include the lectures, courses and events.

At least as of now Cunard seems to have forgotten about your cousins on this side of the pond. Ask.cunard.com doesn't work here, and on Cunard's website only the 2013 speakers are listed.

 

If you would kindly check to see whom will be on the QUEEN ELIZABETH from Southampton to New York and Ft. Lauderdale (January 10 to 21) and post it here, I would be greatly appreciative.

 

Thanks in advance.

Looking at the list you've just posted Scrapnana,

I'd really enjoy going to the Nasa Astronaut Lectures.

You don't get to meet that many people which have been into Space :)

Thankyou for this - I've been waiting for 2014. I'm really pleased with the variety being offered on our cruise.

[Olliesmum]

I've tried downloading the list for all three ships but I just get blank pages.

I just tried it and had no problem.

 

I would try it using a different web browser.

[Olliesmum]

I can get into the link but when I click on the PDF it just downloads blank pages. Would that be affected by the browser? I'm using Google Chrome.

 

Many thanks for your help

Sometimes it happens to me with the browser. Other time it is due to my adobe reader.

 

Try another browser if you have one and if that doesn't work make sure your reader is up to date and also restart your computer.

I also use Google Chrome and that is what is supposed to happen. You get a blank page and at the the bottom left you get a box which says "this kind of file can harm your computer - do you want to keep it anyway?" Then you choose "keep" or "discard".

[tinkerfenwick]

Thanks. I can display without any problems.

 

Whats strange is we sail 11DEC on QV and there is nothing listed..

2013 ends with the cruise before ours and 2014 starts with the cruise after ours...!

One question to the more experienced cruisers:

 

On our first crossing, we enjoyed immesely Nigel West and his lectures about espionage. We now see that he'll be on a crossing again that we may take part.

 

Must we encounter, that he (and his other colleagues) repeat the same topics again or is there a chance that we experience something new?

The better speakers have different presentations to make but if the lectures are on a particular subject that you have already seen, the chances are that the address will contain a majority of the same facts. It is in the lap of the Gods really and just depends on the schedule.

Thank you all for the sharing. Sounds good :-)
