Whicker's World

on BBC One London

A Fast Boat to China
A series of four programmes featuring Alan Whicker aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2 on her three-month winter voyage around the Pacific - the ultimate cruise. 1: Tahiti- Wellington
'I'm a well-adjusted old lady....'
This series considers the buoyant 'upstairs-downstairs' life experienced sailing around the Pacific in 80 days. Here Whicker is dazzled by emeralds too enormous not to be real, surprised by the most pampered passenger, disappointed by the ship's wheel, swayed by South Sea islanders - and tempted into totally sinful behaviour ...
