BBC1: Young Hyacinth

[jake_crew]

I noticed that the trailer for this show (toight, BBC1, 9.30pm) features Victoria (moored) and Lupin (on the move) in the background.

 

Have the owners got more details of what happened ?

I must be one of the few who couldn't get on with the original programme.

 

Perhaps as a younger annoying woman this may be a better programme. Doubt it though.

I think somewhere on the lower GU.....and Victora can be moored up and suddenly be passing itself......got to love TV!

 

Anyone watching purely for canal scenes?

As a younger sister she lives in a lock cottage.

Anyone know what lock

Plenty of boats

This is Stockers Lock on the GU just below Ricky. We were held up here for almost 2 hours whilst they were filming the girl walking across the lock gate. The lock cottage got a complete makeover on the outside as recompense for the disruption of filming.

Mikey on Victoria was actively involved and I think the other narrowboat was Lupin? The steamboat I think was a tug from Wood Hall and Heward from just below Springers Lock.

The Frederick Whittingham is not steam, a six cylinder Gardner if I remember.

Once owned by Jim McDonald and Sean & Jackie Lloyd, built by Yarwoods for the London Dock Authority to transport a Doctor out to incoming ships in order to give a clean bill of health.

We noticed the makeover in the spring when we set off up from Packet Boat. At the time we just thought that it was that a new owner had decided that it was time (it was!). Now we know the fuller story - but I cannot properly recall whether they put the display of old tools back?
