This serene canal journey captivates audiences
For almost a decade, Robbie Cumming has been exploring England's canals and waterways and recording his adventures as he goes. On board his trusty narrowboat, the Naughty Lass, Robbie shares the highs and lows of life on the water. His bucolic journeys through Britain's beautiful countryside are often hampered by mechanical problems, navigational issues and the occasional leak.
