Episodes

View All Seasons
Episode 1 • Jul 26, 2022
Normandie
The Normandie was the most expensive and extravagant ocean liner ever built. A symbol of French national pride adored by the super wealthy, her designer was in fact a poor but brilliant Russian immigrant. His radical hull design made the Normandie the fastest liner on the Atlantic. But when the United States entered the Second World War, the Normandie was seized by the Americans for use as a troopship. During the hurried works to convert the luxury liner for war duties, a devastating fire broke out onboard. Was her demise in New York an accident, however, or was it Nazi sabotage?
Episode 2 • Aug 02, 2022
Queen Elizabeth
This floating palace became part of a cunning plan by the British Government to help defeat Hitler. Instrumental in helping turn the tide of the war, why did the treasured Queen Elizabeth end up coming to such an undignified end in Hong Kong Harbor?
Episode 3 • Aug 09, 2022
Andrea Doria
When the Andrea Doria entered service in 1953, the elegant and modern vessel quickly became the envy of shipping companies around the world. With her sleek lines and stylish interiors, the Italian flagship attracted the most glamorous Hollywood stars. But on her 51st voyage across the Atlantic in 1956, the Andrea Doria was nearing the American coast when she collided with another liner in fog and capsized. The terrible accident killed more than fifty people and injured many more. How could this high-tech vessel with the latest navigation equipment founder on the high seas?
Episode 4 • Aug 16, 2022
Rex
The pride of Mussolini's dictatorship, the Rex broke many records in terms of technical abilities and a new level of luxury at sea. Avoiding being turned into a troop ship and hidden in relative safety throughout WWII, why was she still attacked by the Allies?
Episode 5 • Aug 23, 2022
Cap Arcona
This German flagship doubled up in a 1942 version of the Titanic made as a propaganda film by the Nazis. But her end would be equally tragic with an even greater loss of life. Over 5000 souls would perish on board, but which country was to blame?
Episode 6 • Aug 30, 2022
America/Australis
Two of the United States' best female designers helped create this elegant vessel, which went on to become one of the longest serving liners in history. After a successful career on the North Atlantic, the America found a new lease of life carrying immigrants between Europe and Australia. But the rise and rise of the jet airliner eroded the appeal of long ocean voyages and the America fell on hard times. After changing hands many times over the following decades, the America ended her life as a dramatic wreck on the shores of the Canary Islands - a monument to the passing of the age of the ocean liners.

Cris Stilben has always dreamed of traveling the world and from a young age planned what would come ahead. Among national and international destinations, she created a blog to record her journeys. After a while, she was joined by Igor who from her boyfriend became her husband and later their son's father, young Emmanuel. The trio is always traveling and exploring new places, which are shown on the TV show Cris around the World. The trips only get bigger, just like the family: there is a baby on the way. And the big question is: will it be possible to keep their traveling routine? After telling their story, the three board with the new family member still on Cris's belly heading to Switzerland, where between ski resorts, amazing Alpine mountains, train tours, resorts, and spas, they enjoy the last trip before their big life change. Between touristic attractions, the couple reflects and discusses the future possibilities after the arrival of the second child, while Emmanuel tries to overcome his fears of the Covid-19 pandemic. Together the three try to decide on the baby's name and Cris and Igor get to a decision that will change their lives: stay still in one place or continue traveling.
