Belfast among UK destinations on special Easter cruise
The city in which Jimmy Cricket was born is among the ports of call on his current working cruise around the British Isles and France.
Famous funnyman Jimmy is a celebrity entertainer on the Ambience, the flagship of Ambassador Cruise Line.
The boat set sail from London Tilbury on Monday (3 April).
Guernsey, Tobermory on the Isle of Mull and Belfast in Northern Ireland – Jimmy’s place of birth – are among the destinations on the 11-night trip.
Le Havre in France is also on the itinerary for the Easter British Isles Discovery.
It includes a ‘Journey through Holy Week’ theme with Easter services and reflections on board.
Promotional material about the cruise says Jimmy is one of a rare breed of “‘clean’ comedians who has his audiences falling off their seats with laughter”.
It adds he “will be delighting [audiences] … with cabaret appearances”.
Syd Little, of comedy duo Little and Large fame, is also one of the celebrity entertainers on the cruise.
