A cruise ship being filmed for a Channel 4 reality programme descended into a ‘drug-fuelled orgy’ during a week-long trip around the Mediterranean, it has been claimed.
Passengers said people were snorting cocaine, sleeping in corridors and getting ‘all over each other’ on beds by the swimming pool.
One British man was arrested when the ship – Vision of the Seas – pulled into port at Cannes with film crew aboard for upcoming series Shipmates.

One woman aboard, Alicia Morris, 37, told The Sun: ‘It was like a floating episode of Geordie Shore with drugs and escorts and a police raid or two. The show was being filmed all the time on the boat, with cameras everywhere.’
Another said: ‘Sometimes you didn’t know if you were on a cruise or in the middle of some drug-fuelled orgy.’
The ship – carrying 1,500 passengers – set off from Barcelona before stopping at Cannes, Ibiza, Palma and then returning to Spain.
Some of the out-of-control guests were said to have been in such a bad state they needed to be pushed around the ship on wheelchairs.
One passenger reportedly vomited into the swimming pool on the cruise, which cost £600 a person.
Alicia added: ‘It was a far cry from the glamorous party cruise it’s advertised to be. It was carnage.’

But there is no suggestion anyone involved in the production of Shipmates was involved in any wrongdoing.
Channel 4 said it could not comment on the behaviour of other passengers.
Royal Caribbean Cruises – the operator of the ship – confirmed the arrest made in Cannes.
It added that it has a ‘zero tolerance’ policy on possession of drugs aboard its ships.
