Rare Colin_Cameron Posted June 30, 2020 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Inspired by kimcheeboy's post a couple of days ago I thought it might be an idea to have a thread with links to Cunard Cruise videos. It might be the only way we get onboard this year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Colin_Cameron Posted June 30, 2020 Author #2 Share Posted June 30, 2020 My own contribution is Queen Mary 2's 10th anniversary crossing in 2014. (need to get a better thumbnail) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pear Carr Posted June 30, 2020 #3 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Here is a rousing rendition from 175th Cunard celebrations on 4 July 2015 at the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral. We had the most magical experience from the minute we boarded QM2 at the Per Head in our home town Liverpool till disembarkation in New York. This was our first ever sailing and it was just meant to be on the QM2 from Liverpool. Obviously not our last but nothing will ever top this wonderful crossing!

Some don't have sound tracks because they were removed and I have not had the chance to make new sound tracks. Wish we were on board again! https://www.youtube.com/user/samuels5731 Edited June 30, 2020 by safarigal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Colin_Cameron Posted July 1, 2020 Author #6 Share Posted July 1, 2020 That's quite a collection Safarigal. I'm working my way through them.👍 Pear Car, Your's reminded me of this one. QE2's 40th Anniversary Round Britain cruise including the first of those legendary Liverpool Cathedral concerts. Can you imagine any other cruiseline organising something like that. And then deciding they should be free! There's a couple of minutes of her launch at the start then the cruise starts around 2:15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted July 1, 2020 #7 Share Posted July 1, 2020 These are great, thanks for posting them. I really should do something with the bits of video I've taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Colin_Cameron Posted July 2, 2020 Author #8 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Here's another one also from 2007. Queen Victoria's Maiden Voyage. The naming ceremony is first and the Maiden Voyage starts at around 3:50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Colin_Cameron Posted July 4, 2020 Author #9 Share Posted July 4, 2020 We’ve had QM2 and QV so we might as well round out the current fleet with Queen Elizabeth and a visit to The Black Sea in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Colin_Cameron Posted July 9, 2020 Author #10 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Here's a compilation of clips from QE2, Caronia and QM2. Not for the queasy and probably not for those about book their first cruise. Surely there must be some others willing to share their Cunard videos?

Rare Colin_Cameron Posted July 20, 2020 Author #11 Share Posted July 20, 2020 From 2006. An overnight on Queen Mary then QM2 to Hawaii. QM2 starts at about 4:15. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pberk Posted July 22, 2020 #12 Share Posted July 22, 2020 For those wanting to do a Panama Canal transit, here's the Maiden Transit for Queen Elizabeth in 2011. What a day that was! But even more important for us our the glimpses of our dear departed friends Olga Moore (who taught watercolors on Cunard Ships for many years doing something like 15 World Cruises) and Elaine Reed (World Cruiser) who we miss so much. Ultimately cruising is about the people you meet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pberk Posted July 23, 2020 #13 Share Posted July 23, 2020 This is one of my favorites from 2015 as it includes a very LONG queue -- a cookie --- a nap --- drinks before drinks -- sail away Fireworks -- and the Churchill Lounge. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Radio Posted August 4, 2020 #15 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I have been busy in the Radio Pressroom, and I put together a short video. This is a simple video about the Sunny Promenade on QM2 from my sailing with her in Nov 2019. QM2 may have the best Promenade of any ship. Let's take a walk. . .

seacruise9 Posted August 5, 2020 #16 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Hi, This is a great video. I have done this same walk many times on the Queen Mary 2. The video is almost like being there. I hope that I will be able to take this same walk again in the future. Thanks, Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaxted Posted August 5, 2020 #18 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Radio, Thanks for the wonderful video, How I miss those wonderful promenade walks and how I hope to enjoy them again next summer (fingers and toes earnestly crossed) instead of tromping as I now must through the steamy streets of Washington!

sail1658 Posted March 11, 2021 #25 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) It's beginning to look like there will be limited cruising opportunities until the Autumn and withdrawal symptoms have already kicked in. After all you can only watch so many box sets and have so many walks around the park. So I've been into the loft and dug out my boxes of old 8mm video tapes and started the mammoth task of digitising them. We got our first video camera in 1989 and ever since then we've recorded our cruise experiences from 8mm to 4K. During this time period without cruises we love to have a glass of wine and revisit our past cruise experiences. I realised that my videos were too long and had random music, so I've re-edited them to focus on the ship and destinations and make them more watchable – hopefully! I've posted a few videos on You Tube including one of our first cruises in 1990 on Cunard Princess to the Black Sea, and our most recent cruises on Queen Victoria to Spain and Portugal, and Queen Mary 2 to Norway. Our Cunard Princess cabin was bunk beds at the very front of the ship. I think the anchor was in the wardrobe, - well it sounded like it! The cabin was the size of the walk-in wardrobe in our Queen Victoria Princess Grill cabin. So I hope you enjoy or at least like some of them until we can get back on board again to make new memories.
