I can name Nigel, 3rd from the left back row, and the two lovelies, Sue Jones and Sue Huggins either side of the big wig in the front row.

Harbo adds;

Centre back is John Nicholson Booth, next to him is John Ibbotson, centre middle is Jill (Haythorhe) Wood, front left is Elaine (Grahame) Lawton, front right is Kerry Fox.

That's Nigel sporting the beard and he adds;

Captain's cocktail party with Jeffery Sterling, Chairman P&O Cruises. I think this was late 83 or early 84.

This was when one of the two main engines failed. I think it was 1984 but Don Cole will know all the details.
