Here's the details:

Visitors to the P&O Cruises website can now catch up on the action of a film crew currently filming across the globe for a massive 20 metre wide floor to ceiling plasma wall, the main feature of the Planet Bar on board Azura.

The film crew’s task is to visit, and film simply the most stunninglandscapes and vistas that the world has to offer. This footage will then be played on the plasma wall in the Planet Bar creating breathtaking panoramic scenes on a grand scale and a mesmerising backdrop to a night onboard Azura.

Each night of the week will feature one of the seven continents and the bar will take this as the theme for its music and drinks.

P&O Cruises, head of brand marketing, Philip Price said: “We have asked the film crew to do one thing and that is to film the most dramatic natural and man-made wonders of world – and that is just what they are doing!

“The audiovisual wall on board Azura really is going to make The Planet Bar the perfect place to sit, enjoy a cocktail and, literally, watch the world go by.”

The first blog by director, Duncan Swinhoe, is online now and gives a run down of filming on location in Australia.
