Great Canal Journeys
London's Lost Route to the Sea
Season 3 Episode 1 of 3
Timothy West and Prunella Scales go in search of the lost route between London and the sea, which has not been fully open for more than 200 years and requires four different boats to traverse now. They leave the Thames at Teddington and travel through the Surrey and Sussex countryside before arriving at Guildford, and a canal-side theatre where they have both regularly performed. The final leg of the trip brings them to the River Arun before reaching the English Channel
Great Canal Journeys airs on U&Yesterday at 5:00 PM, Saturday 21 September. (Subtitles.)
