Tony Roberts, Princess Cruises’ vice president UK and Europe, said: "We are thrilled to have taken part in this ITV documentary and can’t wait for viewers to see Regal Princess, and her fantastic crew, in action.
"Meanwhile Hugh Bonneville will no doubt be providing a warm and recognisable voice to guide viewers into the world of Princess Cruises."
The show will be aired at 8pm.
