Second series of ‘The Cruise’ to be filmed this summer
Filming of the six-part ITV documentary will take place on the 3,560-passenger Royal Princess in the Mediterranean this summer, it was confirmed today.
‘The Cruise’, the first series of which was aired earlier this year, reveals what life is like for crew and guests onboard a Princess cruise ship.
It attracted an average audience of 3.5 million per episode.
The new series will be filmed onboard the sister ship to Regal Princess, which appeared in the first series.
Royal Princess was launched in 2013 in Southampton by the Duchess of Cambridge.
The show is provisionally scheduled to air early next year.
Tony Roberts, Princess Cruises’ vice president UK and Europe, said: "The first series of The Cruise was a great success for Princess and the cruise industry as a whole, so we are thrilled ITV has asked to come onboard again."
