Rod Stewart was one of the last visitors to the flattop during her decomissioning in 1979.  His song, "Sailing", had been used as the theme song for a BBC documentary series on the ship.  How can you top this?  Well, it has just been announced that he and his wife will be filming a reality TV show at their L.A. home!
