Creator's Key Takeaways

I was five I was five years old when I watched that program. And that really ensues me so much that um from then on I knew that when I grew up I wanted to be a naval architect.

She's so strongly built and um we made very very particular attention to the structure um because I was very much aware of the problems Q2 had.

I fell in love with Rotterdam 5 immediately because she was completely different ship. She was um what you would call a real ship of state.

Queen Mary 2 is an ocean liner. And what defines an ocean liner is a set of design decisions such as having a much more pointed bow so you can cut through large waves.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If you want to be a naval architect, start by writing a letter of complaint to Blue Peter.
βœ“When designing a ship, consider the balance between revenue generation and structural integrity.
