Cunard Unveils Actor Hugh Bonneville as Insight Speaker

Queen Elizabeth’s maiden season in the Caribbean will see renowned British actor Hugh Bonneville sailing on board as an Insight Speaker this November.

Famed for his roles as Lord Grantham in “Downton Abbey” and the beloved Mr. Brown in the “Paddington” franchise, the Emmy-nominated actor will offer guests an exclusive glimpse behind the curtain of his distinguished career in film, television and theater.

From the grandeur of Highclere Castle to the marmalade mishaps of Windsor Gardens, Hugh will share anecdotes, reflections and more during an intimate onboard Q&A for Cunard guests.

The British TV icon will join the 2,000-guest Queen Elizabeth as part of her 12-night round-trip Eastern Caribbean voyage, departing from Miami on November 27.

Guests will discover the many treasures and rich cultural heritage of the Eastern Caribbean—with calls to Antigua, St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Maarten and Tortola—as well as sea days to relax and unwind on the newly transformed Queen Elizabeth. Prices currently start from $1,699 per person for a Britannia Balcony stateroom, based on double occupancy.
