'The Boat that Guy Built'

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00z8jdv

Motorcycle racer and mechanic Guy Martin attempts to renovate a neglected narrowboat with inventions from the Industrial Revolution.

It's out on torrent sites and is my new fav show.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

It says that this is not available in my area on the link. Do you have another or is it all thru BBC?

I just downloaded the torrent, I'll look for a stream to post when I get home.

I am so watching this. Guy Martin interviews are why I watch the IOM TT.  [thumbsup]

Haha I love his interviews, his view of the world is hilarious and honest.

 Oh this is good!!  I knew Martin had a great personality, but this really shows what a great bloke he is [thumbsup]

On our first trip to England back in 95, we stayed with friends in Surrey.  One day, we rented a narrow boat and cruised up and down the river Wey (from Godalming to Guilford and Bowers Lock).  Damn that was delightful!!  At one point, we were working through a lock, and admiring the ruins of a chapel on a rise near the river (St Catherines?), when a Concorde flew over departing Heathrow. The juxtaposition of history and technologies was amazing!
VIVA LA EVOLUCION!!!
