Yes, a repeat. Good to see though, especially the bit downstream of Keadby that I am too scared to take my narrowboat.

Overall a bit disappointing - missed out loads of the good bits, but I guess in only 1 hour it was only ever going to be a superficial look at the River.

 

I've cruised the Trent for almost 40 years but didn't know the story of Stoke Fields and the wars of the Roses so I did learn something new today.

I've got natural world on BBC4. 

Arh! My fault, posted at 2100.

Watched it, but it has been on before.

I quite enjoyed that - especially the part from Colwick onwards .

If you like odd boating on the Trent, watch Keep Turning Left series 6
