Went to Southampton to see the old QE2 leave on her final voyage. Later hopped on the Red Eagle ferry which escorted her out the solent. A day to remember.

You did her proud with that tribute! I loved QE2. I was onboard coming into Southampton in the morning of the 11th. When we hit the sandbank! Rushed to Hythe in the afternoon to see her depart. I was freezing cold all day, had to be - not to miss anything. What a day!!

Can't stop crying, what is it about Ocean Liners that when they sound their horn just makes me cry. What a very thoughtful video and tribute to OUR QE2 wish we could bring her home.

@Aaron1912 Is correct say that is QE II if you refer the position of the liner, that is the second ship with the name Queen Elizabeth... However if you refer to the name of the ship you must say QE2 (Queen Elizabeth two). We dont read the name "Queen Elizabeth the second"... For read "Queen Elizabeth the second" the name should be QEII or QE2º (2º-second # 2-two).

Such a gorgious ship, love the fact that this is one of the few videos where you can distincly hear her siren. Not her horn, but that high pitched scream of a siren that only a true Atlantic Ocean Liner has! Excellent tribute!
-
excellant video. I had the pleasure of sailing on her, in 1984. Never will there be one like her again such a pity
-
By far the best video I have ever watched!

I'm afraid to say that, in this context, they are not interchangable. Roman numerals does NOT refer to the ship being portrayed.

Very moving video. Well done.
The only error, and it is quite a big error, is in the opening title shot where you call the star of the show the Queen Elizabeth II. This is very very incorrect. It is the Queen Elizabeth 2. There is a world of difference. QEII would mean the ship was named after the (current) monarch - which it very much isn't, while QE2 would mean that it is the second ship called the Queen Elizaberh - which is what it is. Sorry about mentioning this, but it does grate me!

I simply used Roman numerals instead of basic numbers.
