The Grand Event

Mike Apps sits in with news, travel, sport and reports from the P&O Grand Event.

A shipping line has marked its 175th year by sailing its seven cruise ships into Southampton.

The ships from the P&O fleet sailed into Southampton from before dawn.

It is the first time Oceana, Adonia, Azura, Oriana, Aurora, Arcadia and Ventura are arriving and departing from their home port together.

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Solent's reporters are on the water as the flotilla of ships leave the port in single file just before 18:30 led by Adonia.

As each ship sails down the Solent between Weston Shore and Hythe a short fireworks display will be set off.
