Sarah Parish has been signed up to front the latest TV advertising campaign for
Ocean Village Cruises.
The actress, who is best known for roles in dramas such as Cutting It and Peak Practice, has been chosen by the
cruise holidays firm as it seeks to appeal to a younger demographic.
Running throughout June 2009, the ad showcases the kind of things that a woman like Parish can enjoy while on an Ocean Village cruise.
When in the Caribbean, for example, guests will be able to enjoy the beautiful beaches and relaxing bars of resorts such as St Lucia and Antigua.
"On board you''ll find the same laid-back atmosphere whether you''re eating, drinking, watching some of the modern entertainment, or just enjoying a bit of time relaxing in the hot tubs or pools on deck," the company said.
Meanwhile, another famous face - that of the puppet Basil Brush - will be joining passengers on Ocean Village''s western
Mediterranean cruises from July.
