P&O Ferries

Gareth Malone helps to create workplace choirs. At P&O Ferries, he tries to build a musical entente cordiale between choir members on both sides of the Channel.

Choirmaster Gareth Malone returns to create harmony in five of Britain's biggest workplaces. As the contest to be crowned 'best workplace choir' begins, he sets sail with P&O, the UK's longest-running cross-Channel ferry service. With choir members based at sea and on both sides of the English Channel, can Gareth create a musical entente cordiale?
