Cruise staff

For those of you that just came back from your wonderful cruises, i was wondering who your cruise staff were?

Hi Pom,

Just back from the Star. Our cruise director was Shona Ballantyne. I regret to inform everyone however that when Shona gets married in March she will be leaving the high seas!! Our deputy was a guy called Adrian. There was also Joanna (from Poland) and lovely girl called Anne and a few others we didn't have much to do with Kath & Elma (kids). The two DJ's were guys, Keenan & Kamal.

The two leads of the Pacific Star Entertainers were Benjamin J McHugh & Joanna Bagley (some may remember Jo as cruise staff on the Sky, she has gone back to where she first started as an entertainer). The other entertainers were Emma, Will, Michelle, Michael, Ebony, Nathaniel (fantastic), Tara & Line Captain Steven (also fantastic). My nan who was on her 31st cruise (29 with P&O) commented that the Star Entertainers were the best group she has ever seen. They were in sync, had character and weren't trying to outdo each other all the time. All three of their shows - Dance (a new one!), Love the Night Life (updated) & G'Day G'Day (an old favourite of mine!) - were fantastic.

Guest entertainers were Nikki Bennett (a vocalist who missed her first performance due to sea sickness but performed later in the cruise), Mike Harris (a funny comedian who can be forgiven for some of his old jokes especially as he performed with 10 minutes notice when Nikki was sick!) and Eric Bedard (a magician from the US).

Ooops forgot the captain. The Captain of the vessel was Captain Graham Goodway (from Bath, England).

Cheers,

Chaz:)

Hi Karen,

No Nikki was travelling with her Mother. She did mention her husband in her show and stated that when she got off she was heading straight to Tamworth for the Country Music Festival. She sang a lovely Becky Cole song (Sorry I Asked!).

Cheers,

Chaz:)

Hi Chaz

It's a shame he wasn't on there. She could have got him up to sing a couple of songs. He's great, I have both his cd's. He's a top bloke too. Real typical down to earth aussie. Tamworth starts tomorrow. Wish I was going but I have to save my money for my cruise. Hopefully, next year.
