TIMOTHY SPALL’S PETER NICHOLLS DUTCH BARGE WAS FEATURED ON BBC 4

TIMOTHY SPALL: SOMEWHERE AT SEA.

​
​If you missed the recent BBC4  re-run of Timothy and Shane Spall and their Peter Nicholls  Seagoing Dutch Barge then you can still get the book through Amazon. DVD box sets are sometimes found on the web.


The second series showed them back on board their beloved barge, The Princess Matilda as they concluded their trip around the British coast.

Tim takes on Rattray Head in the face of a huge storm. This is the equivalent of Land’s End for Scotland and the point where they head south for the first time.  Their Dutch Barge enabled them to visit wonderful Scottish towns – Peterhead, Eyemouth and Stonehaven – but it’s the town of Banff that resonates most.
