Robbie Cumming's Canal Boat Podcast

Recorded about a week ago when the ice was over an inch thick, I had a chance to take a breather from filming the next series and pick up where I left off on the previous podcast episode, reviewing the most recently broadcast season of Canal Boat Diaries. You’ll hear me talk about tricky water pumps, retying boats moored between locks and being mistaken for a poacher.
This episode is dedicated to the memory of Emma Bird of BWFuels who I met to chat about her work and life on the Grand Union canal.
