Season 1

Celebrity Carry on Barging

Celebrity Carry on Barging is an entertaining jaunt through the countryside canals of Britain, with four unexpected and famous faces paired together to experience a unique barging adventure.

Nigel Havers, Debbie McGee, Lorraine Chase and Simon Callow face obstacles and hilarity as they commandeer a course down two of Britain's most favourite canals, the Kennet and Avon and the Llangollen.

Taking a step back from the limelight to sample life in the slow lane, the four bargers pair up to enjoy their first-ever canal boat holidays.

The celebs must learn how to navigate their boats - and each other - and get to grips with steering and mooring as they navigate their way through the British waterways.
