Hey gang, I've just seen your vid and its just great, such a spirit lifter. Yours is excellent and a real joy to watch. (I've seen the soldiers too) Each is great in its own environment. I love your happy faces in your crew. you obviously have a great team. Wish I was part of it :-)
Brilliant, I worked on Aurora the maiden season, recognise a few faces there . . .Brings back the fun time memories !!! Am acutally going back to ships next week after five years, this time as an Art Auctioneer !
I've seen it many times and decided many moons ago to feature this on my TV show on AURORA TV Australia, now I will a great team having fun. Like us "down under." Heard the ship would be in Sydney this year.
Lol i just noticed that this video was recorded in the Lloyd shipyard in Germany where i work very funny so thats what the crew does when we are not on board nice vid^^
Great effort and congratulations on bringing some fun into our days. The UK Army clip is senastional owing to the location however you guys and gals lit up the screen too. Weird twist, my TV show in Australia appears on the AURORA Foxtel Cable Channel 183, will use part of this on the show. Show is a music show so I better get the marketing depoartment to get in touch with the Fun Ship The Cruise Ship Aurora!! Good one paying tribute to Peter Kay.
Brilliant guys, I have only just seen this, of course I know Peter Kay's version, but I think both Peter and Tony would agree your's is excellent well done the Aurora crew
Ah, as they say, ignore the haters, I thought it was brilliant. This one, and all the imitators, especially the Dragoon Guard. The fact that you guys have managed to create happiness even in a country where they're at war is brilliant. Poeple who have to insult you have no sense of decency, nor a sense of humour. Who cares if there were mistakes? Who cares if some peopel werent as enthusiastic as others, it was fun, and funny. Keep it up guys.
Being one half of the team who made this video, I felt compelled to respond to some of the comments below. It amazes me that people think we got the name of the song wrong...yes, the ship is called Aurora....get it? As for the comment from BlazinBluntsies...I just find it very sad that some people write such things on You Tube, when this video did so much good for charity, and the morale onboard the cruise ship whilst we were in dry dock.
Are you on a ship or hotel so where. You look like you have some fun. I was formerly a marine engineer in British royal navy. Served 14 years. How do I join your crew?
That's right. Norway it is. Not sure whatever came of it. NCL were selling it but it was rumoured to be getting scrapped. Shame really, still in it's last hour it got to star in a great film!!
That's great! I'd heard about this but I hadn't seen it yet. Would that be Norway I saw in the background at one point, behind the Ents team on the top deck?
@Deathstar1337 No, as the description says, this was made before the army...it was only ever a copy of the original...not disputing of course that the army one was put on You Tube first.
Dyu know, i'd forgotten how long ago this song appeared for red nose day - but - this is a great version - thank god Jimmy Saville was nowhere in sight
Take another look at the start of the video! The ship was in refit, making it all nice and new again. Not a piece of chipboard in sight after those couple of weeks.
@ctdwood Indeed the army remake was posted on You Tube first, but ours had already been made and was delighting our passengers whilst raising even more money for Comic Relief!! It doesn't really matter, except that I didn't copy the army, I copied Peter Kay!
They are ALL good...Just a fun kind of video, no matter what branch you like...Where are the Marines? Lets have some Marines in the next one! OOHRAH! Semper Fi, Do or Die!
you can join the marines, army and all sorts if you pit your mind into it, just sigh up and see from there, do training and meetings to see if you ready to join that type troops or not. im waiting for a meeting right now i sent off my form and now just waiting time for me :D
God Bless all British troops fighting evil. We may me a small country but we give more help to anyone else than any other country does! And we do not murdr our own troops!
I am English but have lived here for 10 years! I am very defensive when someone insults England or Australia and their people! I love my countries as you must love yours! No offence meant to you! Hopefully you will say the same! Regards , respect and friendship for the future and put this misunderstanding to bed!
very well done, but this is a competition and apart from my loyalty as a brit, the royal dragoons still takes a lot of beating! thats the plate everyone has to walk up to ! Still the best but this is a serious condender for second place! roflmao
