In the fourteenth episode of Narrow Escapes, we follow Steve and Chris as they cruise towards Chester, embarking on a journey to help plan their daughter’s wedding. Before diving into the wedding preparations, they arrange for a creative grocery delivery, meeting a shopping delivery at a nearby bridge on the Coventry Canal. Sam, on the other hand, juggles his life on the canal with an unusual second job, and he also sets out to find the perfect spot to set up his towpath bike shop.
Meanwhile, Wes and Amy take on the challenging Caen Hill Locks in Wiltshire, recognized as one of the seven wonders of the waterways. To celebrate their achievement and the Eurovision Song Contest, they host a barbecue with friends. The fuel boat lends a helping hand to Steve and Chris, ensuring they’re well-equipped for their journey, and it then makes its way to the Norbury Festival, where Ruth is eagerly trading her goods for the weekend.
