Episode 5

The MS Nieuw Statendam prepares to set sail from Fort Lauderdale on a two-week voyage around the Caribbean, and it falls to British cruise and travel director Clare to get the party started. British travellers Richard and Jackie are in full holiday mode as the ship is carefully navigated out of the busy cruise port. Next stop is the Dominican Republic, where the couple visit a chocolate-making co-operative. However, it's the ship's 'Dressy Night' that's the icing on the cake as, under the direction of chef Sinu, the galley staff work hard to create a 'taste explosion' that blows away the cruisers.
