Forth & Clyde and Union Canals DVDs

Popular DVD

The DVD follows a cruise along the Scottish Lowland canals, including the Forth & Clyde Canal and the Union Canal.  There's a trip on the River Clyde too.

We start our cruise from Carron Basin and climb through the locks to Falkirk.  Climbing through four more locks we reach summit pound, passing the opening bridges and Auchinstarry Marina before cruising along the branch into Glasgow.

Our descent from Stockingfield Junction starts with the Maryhill Locks and continues under the bascule bridges until we pause for lunch at the sail through fish and chip shop - yes you did read that right.

After lunch we pass through the unique Dalmuir Drop Lock and complete our journey to Bowling.  We cruise from Glasgow to Bowling again, this time along the River Clyde aboard the paddle steamer Waverley.

From Edinburgh we cruise along the Union Canal, passing Ratho and Linlithgow on the way.

We'll descend the staircase locks and pass through Rough Castle Tunnel to reach the famous Falkirk Wheel.  Which way will we rotate?  The Golden Jubilee Lock takes us down to the new junction with the Forth & Clyde Canal.

The Popular format DVD runs for 60 minutes.
It's available on its own or in a combined 2 DVD set with the Bowcam DVD described below.

Bowcam DVD

For a little fun we fitted a forward facing camera to our boat and, with a little editing, this shows a high speed journey around the ring.

You can see the forward facing view of the whole journey, and not just the highlights shown in our Popular DVD.

We've added the mileage in the top corner of the screen, based on the markers in the Nicholson's Canal Guides, and location information along the bottom so you always know where you are.

You can sit back and watch the scenery and the clouds scudding past, or watch the locks being operated from your armchair.

The commentary explains more about the canals and their background to complement the Popular format DVD.

The complete journey takes 60 minutes.  The Bowcam format DVD is available on its own or in a combined 2 DVD set with the Popular DVD described above.

Combined (Popular & Bowcam) DVDs

Your opportunity to save a little money.

Many customers ask for both the Popular and Bowcam DVDs so we've put them together in one box.  This includes both the fold-out map and the information book which come with the Popular edition.

Not only are they cheaper by buying them in one box, but it counts as one item so you save a second postage charge too.

The Popular format is a cross between a documentary and a holiday programme and is supplied with a fold-out map (37 x 24 cm - 14 x 9 inches) and an information booklet giving further background material.
