Jane, 59, also took the time exploring the Scottish islands to reflect on her childhood days with her late father, who passed away in the 90s.
Jane, who also works as a cruise ship singer, travelled up to Tobermory during the show, to take part in Cèilidh, which is a traditional form of Scottish dancing.
As she was mid-activity, the star recalled how her father taught her to dance.
Jane told the camera: “I just realised how fit I was as a child dancing with my father.
“I used to go every week ballroom dancing with my dad, and you don’t know how special that is until they are gone.”
She then got emotional speaking about her father, adding: “Don’t make me cry.”
The host later brought up her dad to the viewers, towards the end of the show.
As she closed the programme, she took a moment to reflect.
“I think looking out to this, I think of my dad really,” said the star.
“Because although he’s been gone – he passed over in 1993 – when you’re somewhere as beautiful as this, your loved ones, I feel, come around you.
“And I just feel my dad has been on this journey with me.”
Signing off, she raised a glass to the sky and paid a tribute to her father, saying: “Here’s to you, dad.”
Jane McDonald: Cruising Scotland is available to watch on My5.
