Aided by a string of eccentric passengers on board the luxurious transatlantic liner, can this web of love be untangled before they reach Southampton?

Kate said: “I have spent a lot of my career playing rather dowdy northern women, and those are the roles I normally get.

“This was a fantastic contrast as it is a musical and full of glamour.”
