Ahoy Pollywogs and Shellbacks

Read MoreWatching The Cruise and Jayne McDonald did not float my boat
Last week saw the return of two cruising programmes – The Cruise which was shown on Thursday on ITV, and Cruising with Jayne McDonald was shown on Channel 5 on Friday – and I have to say I was really disappointed with both. The Cruise is a series showing life onboard a Princess Cruise ship […]
