[@smeghead7698]

It wasn't your "silly little vlogs" that got you on the telly, it was yous two's amazing personalities. 👍

[@Sparrowarah]

Your mum joining in on the ad was gold 🤣🤣🤣

[@scottfw7169]

They very obviously had fun making that ad. 😁

[@seren2646]

Love adds like that as I actually enjoyed watching it and found it so wholesome with her mum 😊

[@aethellstan]

i thought she was her sister at first as they look so alike.

[@geoffreynolds8835]

Still the BEST Narrow Boat couple on the Web.

[@falami5485]

true

[@shirleygreaves9650]

Don’t ever change, you two are so good. You are so unassuming and humble! I love how you even make an advert entertaining and put your Mum in the advert too.😂 You two are so original and unique. Take care, lots of love. xxxx

[@MaggieTremayneMissMags]

Hahaaaa! "Our will be Pooh on the telly!" And it was. I laughed so hard😂

[@janeg917]

I can’t tell you how happy it makes me when I see that your vlog is sponsored, I love your channel so much x

[@biffboff2006]

So well deserved a fantastic couple ❤love seeing wes and amy on there adventures a genuinely lovely couple

[@scottfw7169]

That is quite a set of memories to enjoy for all time. 😊

[@MsRachaelRoberts]

Best narrowboat vloggers, hands down. These longer videos are such a treat too but make sure you take time for yourselves too lovelies 💜

[@gordonchapman222]

All this time, sworn to secrecy and yet you kept a vlog as it was happening. Well done guys. I bet you couldn't wait to release this episode of Boat Time. I shall be watching the TV show myself this evening - can't wait. Thanks for another great vlog 👍👍

[@RuthBridgewater]

I have to tell you how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE your vlog! We've watched from the beginning. You are so genuine, you're not afraid to be real. When Wes shares his anxiety with all of us, I just cry. I didn't realize how much anxiety has affected my life until I saw his struggles, and it has been amazingly helpful. So thanks for being YOU, both of you. You're amazing. I live in Sarasota, FL, but I am in Narrowboat Escapes for a brief moment. I'm the teacher in the USA that Noah (Chugabug) talks with on FaceTime. So fun! Keep up the good work, we think you are amazing.

[@LouisaTodd-h8u]

Your vlogs are simply the best. You are the sweetest, kindest, most lovely couple. 😊 xx

[@celineellis]

May I just say that your approach to ads in your videos makes me actual LOL. Well played Amy & Wes, well played!

[@hamishtheterrible]

Genuinely you two are the nicest couple on KZbin, so glad you enjoyed your experience filming for Narrow Escapes, really enjoy your vlogs you both clearly love what you are doing which comes across, hope you have a brilliant summer cruising ❤

[@louisecrane1072]

I loved the mum bit ,guys your so lovely don't ever worry or change ,we can't all live in pristine homes Instagram worthy,I live in a council house and love it ,its my home and wouldn't change it ❤

[@onedaymoreaboard]

We absolutely loved this and it brought back so many happy and funny memories! Having to tell people that it was just a normal day. Everything’s normal. Just normal 😂. And your mum was fab in the advert. She and Wes can start up an acting academy! 😂

[@ramsdenanna6794]

You both came over a completely natural, and they didn’t edit in a bad way.

[@BoatTime]

We were so relieved but trusted the production company too, loved it 🥰

[@1Polglen]

Well done! Love your mum. She should be on board more often. Treasure her. My mum's been gone 19 years. Still miss her deeply.

[@michelewillard405]

You’re my favourite Utube couple, and I love that you vlog twice a week, I’m always happy when I see one of your videos come up. Can’t wait to see you on the telly, but I live in my motorhome and am currently in Spain, so can only watch the ones released on Utube. Hopefully this time next year I’ll also be living on a narrowboat🤞

[@jodihill668]

Rufus was excellent in the ad... Such a professional!!

[@JasonAllen-j9o]

I won’t lie I went straight to episode 13,14 & 15 - Great stuff guys.

[@BoatTime]

Awh thank you!! 🥰

[@lindsayalexander2056]

Thank you SO much for this behind the scenes vlog. I actually cried when I watched the last Narrow Escapes episode, because it's all been wonderful. But I'll carry on watching you both, because I think you're such natural, genuine people. I was very sad to hear of Doops' passing so sending hugs, and much love from my little corner of Kent. Maybe I'll see you at Crick Boat Show one day! x

[@sallyu1]

You must have really been exhausted double filming things, being followed around, working, editing your own vlogs and everything else that goes with boat life. Well done! You both looked very natural on tv and I bet that your family are really proud of you, especially featuring your poo on tv hahahah Keep it up, your adverts are really fun too xxxx

[@BoatTime]

It was so tiring but we loved it! Thank you so much!! 🥰🥰

[@lw7240]

Congrats guys for staring on narrow escape. U were brilliant as usual. Lisa xxx❤❤❤

[@elizabethworthington5228]

I've loved your vlogs from the word go but this was brilliant. The two of you all over, celebrated on national TV. Wonderful. Well done x

[@brookeolsen4128]

My god, you two should be INCREDIBLY proud of yourselves ❤❤❤ I got emotional watching your vlog when you went on the tidal Thames and then again watching it on Narrow Escapes, and now I'm totally blown away even more by your tenacity and I'm emotional all over again (kinda pathetic I know, but i totally see how anxiety- inducing all those individual things are and yet you conquered all of it all at once.... so yeah I get emotional 😆 ). Huge huge huge well done!!! .... also, can't believe I totally missed all the Easter eggs 😂😂 xx

[@BoatTime]

honestly that means a lot thank you!! It is easy to forget in the moment quite how stressful it all was trying to coordinate everything haha! 🥰🥰

[@mags9981]

Thoroughly enjoying the series. You two were my reason for watching it. Please don't ever change, you are naturally lovely 🥰

[@BoatTime]

Ah thank you so much!! 🥰🥰

[@Daydreameruk]

Can’t believe this was on my doorstep too!! You bad lads!! It was fabulous. I love this behind the scenes even more than the series.

[@sandralowe2874]

Yes you done well and Wes stuck in toilet was funny 😂😂

[@mazack00]

The elsan point scene being the intro to the show every episode is HILARIOUS! Wes' 😬face while dumping poo makes me giggle so much. Ya know, I remember that tripod in a vlogisode and was like "wow someone has a nice camera.." but didn't think much else of it XD so cool to follow a couple regular celebs. ;D Thanks for sharing the behind-the-scenes!

[@journeytakesatrip]

After falling behind with Narrow Escapes due to being busy converting my new truck over the last few months I’ve just watched all of your episodes over the last few days, so this video was perfectly timed for me. Great to see all of your behind the scenes shots and explanations about what being filmed was like.

[@Red-Robin4]

I’m so glad they picked yall to be on television because you deserve every bit of it because yall are amazing and funny and down to earth people. And I wish I could watch it but I live in America but hey I would move to the UK in a heartbeat! Lol!! I bet narrow escapes is going to be so good.😊

[@melodyebannerman]

Loved watching you two superstars as you filmed and were being filmed. You both have such infectious smiles😊

[@karenhowlett6511]

The shows were nice and easy watching showing the people and how they get on with their days. I did spot and wonder why the small boat was sailing along in your vlogs. All has become clear. You are good at knowing how tv works. Loved the whole show..

[@jamesedwardson605]

I knew you 2 would be famous on the cut...

[@Dearnarrowboatdiary]

Filming a film of you being filmed! Brilliant idea and impressive forward thinking amidst all the excitement! Loved it 😊

[@BoatTime]

Thank you!! To be honest we’re quite impressed with ourselves looking back 😅😂

[@oneshoan]

I’m still smiling Congratulations!!!

[@BoatTime]

Thank you!! 🥰

[@MrCsKnotAnotherTie]

Loved this episode and the behind the filming of 'behind the filming' Like many of the comments on here, you two are such a genuine couple and you both come across so well, who wouldn't want to follow you now. I've loved the Narrow Escapes episodes and the trials, tribulations, warts n all of what boating life is all about, as we ourselves are about to find out in about a month's time!! Can't wait to get our boat and get out there.

[@fabricartUK]

You are sooooo like your mum! Loved this vlog!

[@ritamcgregor9103]

So bummed! Channel 4 over there won't let me watch it in USA. :( So happy for you guys!

[@FlashGormless]

If you use a VPN you'll be able to watch the series:)

[@TillerQueen]

This is so cool! I did see the camera on the Caen Hill flight but I only realised it was that when you showed it again! Amazing! 🎉

[@bernishepherd4611]

Awe guys, this video is perfect. What amazing memories are you creating for yourselves 💛

[@emmajudson5945]

Glad it turned out as expected, its always a worry when you don't know how something will be edited or what angle the production co. are realllllllly going for!

[@catherine3902]

I know how you felt being filmed. Well done. What you may not realise is, your programme could well be repeated regularly 😀 We were filmed a few years ago with Julie Walters on her coastal rail journey series. We were at our caravan close to the Scottish Borders in Northumberland. We still have folks saying they've seen us on the repeats 😂. You did SO well xx

[@trevorsbarkingmadchannel4501]

That was awesome. What an adventure for u all. 🎉

[@tonyp011]

we have already watched the programme narrow escapes featuring yourselves and the other livaboard boaters

[@Lulu5771]

I am so thrilled for you both! Well and Rufus and Dupes too !! You two are truly my favorite YT peeps, you are just lovely and we are so lucky to come along your amazing life on the cut ! I can’t believe you kept that secret so good! It must have been really hard to do! I love that they got the shot of you going under Tower Bridge and going into London, that must have been so fun and so stressful at the same time. Congrats 🎈

[@pambrown9722]

😂😂😂😂😂 Our poo is on national telly! ...I am literally belly laughing. I knew one day you would be on TV, you are such a lovely couple. I absolutely love your vlogs. Well.done to you both...oh and to your mum too Amy for the advertising of Surfshark...legend ❤

[@deballen6147]

You so deserved this tv opportunity I haven't watched them all yet but can't wait to see you both. Both are you are so witty and funny but most of all happy . Well done and thankyou for sharing your adventures with us all x🎉

[@BoatTime]

Thank you so much! We really enjoyed being a part of it!

[@aprildixon-ff1bc]

I bought a 120-inch flat screen , and you both are bigger than life at our house in Alaska. Congratulations on your tv debut . You're now movie stars, hah 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@MichaelDouglas-yo2gu]

Great vlog - I must say your paid promotion adverts are the funniest by a mile 🤣🤣. And hats off to both of you for coping with the added pressure of filming for the program at the same time as vlogging for us and doing the tidal Thames (I did spot the film crew at the time). And yes, your 💩 was on the telly 🤣🤣🤣

[@narrowboatersatlarge]

Well done, that must have been a masterclass in organising two things at once :) Your episodes were so funny and the trip under Tower Bridge looked very exciting. Catching sight of the Bears became a little game lol.

[@NicksAllotmentDiary]

Hi Amy and Wes. This behind the scenes vlog was brilliant. It’s great to see how much goes into filming for the TV. You filming everything twice both for them and for your own channel must have been exhausting. Loved the Narrow Escapes series and watched every episode. You came across really well. Loved it 🥰Take care. Nick

[@BoatTime]

Thanks so much Nick! It was so tiring but so worth it! 🥰

[@traceyd9559]

Amy Wes Rufus & Dupes had me crying from laughing, crying to see Dupes, yay he made it to stardom, absolutely pure awesomeness love love love - “all in” you go forwards & upwards from here, brilliant VLog. 🥰

[@wandabond-ul5fn]

This was so much fun to watch, poo and all! Laughed throughout the whole vlog! Love you both!

[@barryedwards4481]

Thanks for sharing Amy and Wes I thought it was an awesome vlog and yes I had a tear when I saw you holding DOOPS going under the tower bridge so many great memories stay safe and happy boating cheers Barry from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺

[@annjarvis9300]

[@BoatTime]

Haha yep he spotted the entourage boat but said nothing about our involvement 😊

[@janroberts1815]

So glad you all enjoyed your journey to stardom! 🌠🌟🌟🌟 Great to watch 👍

[@tessapetters3936]
