The end of an icon
The world's longest serving and most beloved cruise ship, the QE2, has come a long way since her humble beginnings as piles of steel and timber on 'Yard Number 736' in Scotland. Nearly 40 years after her maiden voyage, one of the most iconic liners in the world is about to embark on her final journey, as she glides gracefully towards retirement. In this warm, celebratory film, Timewatch bids a fond farewell to the QE2 and - with exclusive access to the final voyage - looks back over four glittering decades on the high seas.
