Relaxing Single Shot Along England's Canals (Full Documentary) | TRACKS

[@dotdotdot1985]

I liked this video so much I went all the way from the midlands to Dundas aqueduct so I could experience it myself...not in a boat, though, on the tow path!

[@NimrodScott]

Sitting in the United States taking a relaxing tour down an English canal on a beautiful Sunday morning. Brilliant!

[@goboatuk]

We love this! We might be stuck indoors but this is helping lift our spirits. Stay safe wherever you are.

[@williambolton5679]

England is a truly beautiful country.

[@LivingWalks]

We're very interested in 'slow TV', no presenters, muzak or opinion, just an immersive tour with natural sounds and sights. Thanks for adding this really enjoyable one. I hope between us we can spread these kind of videos around a little. It's a great way to learn more about our world.

[@oesoy]

The time machine shot at 17:14 was a great touch!

[@tinman0Z]

It was. I would like to know how they done it. Very well done.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

A FAVORITE FOR SURE! My wife and I walked the Kennet and Avon canal path from the center of Bath to The George and back during a week-long visit to the city from the USA. We never imagined I would stumble across this wonderful and evocative footage on KZbin. The George is a wonderful pub with a fine garden for good days.

[@MartinCube42]

That's a really nice walk. We did the same one a couple of years ago on a hot summers day but couldn't manage the walk back & called a taxi.

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

This has to be the most mesmerising video of England I have ever seen. I love the long boats and the extensive canal system in England so this is a real treat. I’m from the south of England and yet I had no idea of just how many canals there are all over England lol. There are literally miles and miles and more miles of canals lol. It’s amazing how a person (me) can be from such a small place and yet not know about this amazing system of canals that cross cross so much of the country. Yet another reason I’m so proud of the place I come from. Thank you for making this film and for posting it.

[@anthonyhazlewood5788]

So beautiful and restful... Thanks for uploading

[@adimeter]

This is so relaxing. I turned the sound on the highest volume and just began to meditate. How peaceful. Thank you.

[@zapfanzapfan]

Gorgeous aqueduct at the end.

[@adimeter]

Scenery on the river banks is priceless. Just lovely

[@HawkKI4HEE]

As a 3rd shift worker, i sleep to the nature sounds. As house bound kayaker I soak up the beauty of a slow trip along the water. THANKS!

[@drspaseebo410]

Ah ! Wonderful ! So soothing, so restful, so peaceful, so lovely, so divine ! Thank you.

[@WOLFROY47]

thanks a lot guys, just what was needed, in this really stressful time. a big dollop of sanity

[@BoatingBiker]

Wonderful video, no musack, no chat ,just brilliant content superbly presented. Thank you.

[@LivingWalks]

Ahhhh... I film natural sight and sound gopro walks in soulful cities, and I'm a real lover of slow TV, so it's great to see there's more of these wonderfully simple video's out there. I really enjoyed resting here a while with the natural sounds. Thanks for sharing.

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

Have you seen the slow video of a ship making its way up the coast of, its either Sweden or Norway, I can’t remember which but it’s really long as in 24 hours or a couple of days. It was actually live streamed live in real time. I think there’s a link to it on Tom Scott’s channel. Anyway it’s worth searching for it. Cheers mate

[@reburdoc4647]

Perfect for watching whilst using my exercise bike when it's not pleasant outside.

[@ianreynolds8552]

This is a great idea for people who can t get out generally and because of the cornavirus tòo

[@stephenrobinson163]

I played Mozart's Serenades to accompany this video, together with the natural sounds and the engine at was perfect.......thanks for the upload!!

[@666k9s]

Very peaceful and beautiful! Love the sounds of nature! Thank you for cutting out the engine sound and NOT adding a music track.

harrygatto . Hi guy ,well two things I hate to do that as they receive revenue from them to help make more . but to the people who put the adds where they are let me tell you this . I'm disabled and can't get around to well. but the adds that you put up I will make a point of not buying, not watching, not going too. And yes I am just one person ,but if these people would realize that if you place adds more sensitive and thoughtful​ you might get a little more respect. You may think that is a daft way of thinking but ah well

@@colingibson8018 Fair enough Colin. However, neither the KZbinr or the company he's advertising will ever know that you have blocked their ad. If an ad drives me crazy then I will try as far as possible not to use that company's products or services.

The English countryside is so charming. The long narrow canal boats are efficient Arne Michigan

[@WOLFROY47]

yep you guys really know what you are doing. very professionally done. and no crappy background music. youngsters can't even talk to each other these days, without background noise. still, i suppose, you can't miss, what you have never experienced. yep sure, river life is not all fun, and boats don't maintain themselves. but, just living with nature, helps restore your sanity. and if you want to move, you don't have to pack everything, you're home travels with you

[@leonardonoel]

Beautifully put together, but commercial interruptions every 5 minutes is a bit extreme. I counted 21. One at the beginning, middle, and end should suffice. Slow TV is meant to be played in the background. You should not have to keep running back to your tv or phone/tablet to press skip every 5 minutes. Many watch the same Slow TV program daily to unwind before bedtime. The loud commercial interruptions in this video ruin the experience sadly. Remove the ads. You’d get tons more repeat views daily. Just a suggestion. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@nathanthomas5133]

The BBC doesn’t have ads so when originally shown it was ad-free, it’s only these unofficial (ie ripping off the BBC) KZbin versions that have ads

What kind of engine? The boat seems to be gliding with not a sound. Delightful!

[@williamlynn9045]

restful and peaceful and when your in that mode you would like to have less commercial interruptions which was kind of a let down but not a bad film

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

I’m blessed to have KZbin premium so I don’t ever get commercials and I’m allowed to download videos and watch them anywhere I like even without an Internet connection. It’s well worth the money for both of those reasons. I downloaded this video and some others like it and play them on repeat on my big screen tv lol. It’s wonderful for studying and relaxing. Cheers

[@bobmason83]

That drone footage at the start was excellent . Was that flown on an auto pilot system ? What make and model drone ?

[@rogerfroud300]

Absolutely charming, but it's not a 'single uninterrupted shot'.

[@johnjamessmith113]

Absolutely wonderful and relaxing. Know this part of the world well my wife's forbears were associated with the land and the canal hereabouts. One thing that does intrigue me on watching this is the number of seemingly derelict boats covered in all manner of detritus that are moored. Do the licencing authority not manage this vagrancy?

[@green856w]

Nice idea. Commentary as whereabouts on the canal the boat is, occasionally, would have helped - or at least some text giving locations and a little background about certain parts the boat is passing would be helpful.

[@wessexdruid7598]

I'm puzzled to know how this could be licenced from ITV - when it was commissioned by and made for BBC Four?

[@adimeter]

TBH it was a little bit intimidating until the gates opened. CPTSD creates strange reactions in many of us. But once the canal ride began I totally relaxed.

[@nigelrowe2204]

This was originally shown on the BBC with location captions.

[@Visionery1]

Interesting, super-sensitive microphone, almost like sitting on the front of the boat.

[@adimeter]

How is the shrubbery on the banks maintained. Are there no entanglements from the banks in the water?

[@claude2642]

What make of camera are you using? Thanks from Canada.

[@WOLFROY47]

[@loisward1676]

@@TRACKSTravelDocs Why is it called "top lock" when the canal rises out of Bath?

Yes, "top lock" applies to the Bath flignt of locks rather than the whole canal!

☺️☺️☺️

[@williambolton5679]

Why do they drive on the left but keep to the right on the waterway?

[@nigelrowe2204]

Just navigational rules both at sea and with aircraft. River boats often fitted with navigation lights - Port(left) is red / Starboard(right) is green - so you know from a distance which side you should pass safely.
