Robbie Coltrane, OBE, 1950-2022

It’s with great sadness that we hear the news of Robbie Coltrane, OBE, passing away.

We have had the pleasure of spending time with Robbie in connection to his work and commitment as patron of TS Queen Mary.

Sending our deepest sympathies and wishes to his family at this sad time.

‘Robbie was unstinting in his passion, enthusiasm and support for TS Queen Mary, a ship he often referred to as being his “beautiful baby.’

‘He loved casting his eye over the new plans and schematics for TS Queen Mary (he was an excellent engineer!), and he took real pleasure in sitting on her boat deck and imagining her getting ready to cast off.’ Iain Sim, Chairman, TS Queen Mary
