Guy is such a great man to watch. He really gets on with it .😊
There are canals all over England. You can hire a canal boat to stay on and travel on. I lived on one about 15 years ago in Nottinghamshire near the river Trent. It's a very peaceful way to live. There is also the Norfolk Broads, which is nearer London, where there are lots of opportunities to hire a boat.
We have over over 2000 miles of canals with a max speed of 4mph
This was Guy Martins first TV series (2011), it came before How Britain Works (2012)
You can hire boats for vacations, like an RV on water - there’s thousands of miles of canals - they were the railways before the railways. People also live on them as ‘live aboards’. Bear in mind you will not likely be able to hire one on your own - although people will live on them alone most hire companies won’t want to risk someone unexperienced taking it out alone, mostly because of navigating locks. So it’s something you need to check with each company. You can also sign up for a narrowboat handling course for a day, that can be a good way to get the experience.
You will likely be able to find a canal trip to join at the very least though
Lipton’s is basically the stuff they couldn’t sell in the UK, because it’s very low quality stuff; you really need to try teas without all the sugar to really appreciate the flavours and blends
It's the same with American coffee. When I investigated making American style coffee, it turned out that the rest of the coffee drinking world thinks that standard American coffee is total trash.
I was married to an American for 15 years and the first time I had liptons I thought it was grass clippings.
We took a big box of PG Tips over and her mum stopped drinking Lipton's.
@@no-oneinparticular7264 they make it from scratch with Liptons teabags in the US, that's what they're referring to (and every American that mentions ice tea), not the bottled stuff we get in the UK...
Jerry Mcdonald also Worked on another UK TV series you guys might want to check out call "Scrapheap Challenge"
Great series and the first time most brits had ever heard of Guy as the IOM TT wasn't something a lot of people were aware of at the time, I worked as an artist at Wedgewood while studying Sculpture in Stoke aka 'The Potteries' which is an area well known for it's pottery production, I've only cast from molten metal once though as it's kind of compulsory to do it at least once if you're studying sculpture, but it's never been a technique I used in my own work. One cool thing in Stoke is the steel works, I went there on a day trip to the part where they were making railway lines, they open the furnace doors while your stood a safe distance away and the heat is simply insane, it's actually quite scary, the massive bar starts off 12 foot long then after being passed through a series of rollers ends up 60 foot long, it's amazing watching heavy industry at work.
Yorkshire tea is the best tea bag around! With milk and 2 sugars is a must too.
The first thing to be unpacked in a new place has to be the kettle. Tea lubricates the wheels of British industry.
we love guy
I lived on a 65 foot narrow boat for 4 years and this series made me smile and laugh with understanding.
Love these videos guys, please keep them coming, its such an educational and a relaxing watch. ❤❤✌✌☮☮
Loved that!
Morning from the N.W. of England everyone!☔️🇬🇧🌷😄
The canal system is dentist in the Midlands. So there are canals everywhere between Birmingham and Nottingham. With The Trent-Mersey Canal and the Grand Union Canal be in the biggest.
You have something similar to this in America, the Erie canal , it even has some British narrow boats on it👍
Aldi speciality tea, Earl Grey, milk one sugar👌
The Grand Union Canal goes right thorough London, you can catch a boat at Camden and Little Venice for example 🌟
yesssss, the other Guy documentaries have started.
When you come to Scotland,you can can hire a wide berth bot in Central Edinburgh, right in the middle of everything.
Fun fact Spencer , Thomas Lipton of Lipton tea fame was Scottish born in Glasgow
You should come to Dudley where the Black Country museum is featured on the show. Not only does it have a huge canal network it also has some of the longest canal tunnels in the uk…could even try ‘leggin it’ (moving a canal boat through a tunnel with your legs). Plus you are also a stones throw from the Seven Valley Steam Railway also featured in Guy’s shows you have reacted to
That furnace site looks SO much like the Peaky Blinders set.
A lot of consumed tea is blended because tea can be quite bitter if not blended correctly. The 100% teas are an acquired taste often chosen because it is the first or only tea you've ever drunk, and the rest tastes like waste water after you're used to it.
Another little known fact is that tea leaves have more caffeine in them than coffee beans. _Caffeine is a naturally occurring pesticide that’s found in both tea and coffee (as well as cocoa and yerba mate). There is more caffeine in the leaves of the camellia sinensis plant, which is the only species of tea plant, than there is in the beans of either the coffea robusta or coffea arabica plant_
spencer...when you turn up at the co op live arena to see oasis...there is a canal right next to it...and manchester city centre, has a canal basin..(a central hub...loads of boats moored up)...its at castlfield in the city centre...
I was on a hot tub with an engine in a canal a few weeks ago drinking beer 😂
Hi there Spencer and Daniel! I live a few miles away from the Anderton Boat Lift!
Black Country Museum where they made the pot is where Guy helped with the steam pump in How Britain Worked (which was the series he did after this one).
It’s also where they filmed quite a bit of Peaky Blinders
The canals predated all of it, they used to be pulled by a horse. The technology is centuries old...
We have the Macclesfield canal a few hundred yards from the house, there are companies that hire out boats for the day etc (for example Bollington boat hire in our village) and at most of the canal yards have similar
Harrison Ford and Carlista Flockhart spent part of their honeymoon on the Llangollan Canal in mid Wales.
One of my favourite British intentions is The Crapper (an intention of Mr Crapper, whose name is now largely synonymous with the facility, I'm never sure which came first, the name or the reference !)
Tea has very limited caffeine in the drink without extreme measures to extract it. It is also a large part of why we survived moving into the cities for The Industrial Revolution with limited Dysentery ! Water for Tea needs to be boiled to make the Tea and boiling kills a significant portion of the bugs.
Other way around, the Trucks superseded the canal boats (after the trains had mostly already superseded the canals first !)
My favourite Teas are black teas like Russian Caravan or Ceylon
Perfect order to do it though - see his historical repairs rounded up and from there determine that a full season of one is worth a punt. Fair play
What has more letters than the alphabet? A Welsh town name.
I did a whole holiday on one..did the the four countries ring with the longest tunnel on the canal system. Great fun, relaxing and *alot* of pubs :)
South African "red bush" tea is my morning cupa which has a distinctive taste and a black tea later in the day.
twinings extra strong english breakfast tea the best
guys, the canal boats only do around 4mph or so, there is a reason for that, so as not to cause wake, wich erodes the banks and disturbs the widlife,
I smiled in recognition, men will be boys will be men, always. That’s why I love men in general, never taking themselves or eachother too seriously. 🤣
Yorkshire tea all the way
Did you guys ever do guy martin speed where he smashed loads of speed records? It's really good
My dream would be to live on a Canal Boat! Such a relaxing way of life cruising along through the Countryside, hopefully working from the boat online! Heaven! £100,000 fr a basic boat, £150,000 kitted out ready to go! 😮 😔
i have two friends, who have canal boats, one is solo female and other is family, one does have his on the grand union, i have fished that canal many times at sudbury, they both paid 50k for their boats, ready to use, they have updated a little on the way,
Sorry Lads but the Furnace reminds me of Ened a Town in America. My British firm collaborated with an American Firm .The British offered to send the Furnace Team over .but the Americans said no we've got this .when they Fired it up the Bricks collapsed. The Furnace Team was on the next available Flight ✈️ .Oops.
I don’t think he really left his mate doing the hard work, just a bit of narration to tie separately filmed segments together 😄
This is so interesting to see how things were done in years gone by ...if I may say my preferred metric leaf water is an Irish blend called lyons .
Just think his brains used to working out decisions at 200mph
The Queens of Tea ...THE BEST OF DARJEELING GUP....and head girl St Gloriana Girls College God bless her.
Don’t think there’s anything Guy can’t turn his hand to.
AND YOU CANT USE A SPIRIT LEVEL ON A BOAT,😊
Yorkshire tea
For canals I would say birmingham England. You can have trips etc. Nowhere in the UK has more than Birmingham, the west midlands was the heart of the industrial revolution, you have birmingham canals, iron bridge (frist ever iron bridge in the world), you have dudley -(black country museum). Bridge north etc. All around west midlands theres history. They have more canals than Venice in birmingham - but used horses to pull boats long before they had engines hence why there's always a path next to (you seen the man walking along).
The reason it's called the black country is because Queen Victoria took a train through the area and she said everything was black due to smoke and sut from factories etc. Black by day red by night due to all iron furnaces.
Definitely visit the black country museum if you want to learn about the industrial revolution. -(how people lived and how things worked). Probably the best place in whole UK to learn. Guy has been several times he went there in this & also in how Britain worked.
My favourite tea is Ceylon, but we usually drink Brooke Bond as I worked for Unilever Research for 30 years and that is a Unilever brand. As they are paying my pension it's only fair that I should drink their tea!
12:26 you can hire a narrow boat, hire one for a day or longer.
You can hire canal boats for holidays and traverse the canals freely. You don't need special licenses and a few hours training and your away. BUT the maximum speed is 4mph and to go anywhere takes time...
The network is massive across the whole of England, Scotland has a network too, but they aren't joined up.
Useless bit of information,Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart's honeymoon was canal boating in North Wales.
There nothing like tetley tea in the morning with hot buttered toast in the afternoon welsh cakes
32:30 Twinings brand Assam tea.
I remember burning coke in our open fire when I was a kid. It was a byproduct of making "Town Gas". Which was the gas made from coal, before we switched to "Natural Gas" from North Sea oil wells.
Some great British films from the 50's on Wedgewood.
PG tips tea
Steering Reckless or Recklessly steering?
Tours uk
Why he didn't decide on a brass kettle instead of cast iron one don't know...
You won't kicked off about tea l
Guy I advise you to watch a movie called young Adam. Not shore you be able to do it as a reaction. As the movie is R rated. There is some where in the Midlands of England where you can do a busmans holiday on narrow boats you'll have sorce it out uk tors
