Celebrity Carry On Barging: Stars take on canals in Shropshire and Wales
There are more taxing celebrity shows to be on, but actor Nigel Havers still found one challenge a bit much when he toured the canals of Shropshire and Wales with three fellow stars of the small screen.
He admitted the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, just over the border, was a bit much, adding: "Going over that aqueduct was scary. It is the longest one in Europe and when you look over the side there is a 600ft drop."
The waterways of our region will be highlighted in the new Channel Five show, which starts on Friday.
Havers shared a narrowboat on the Llangollen Canal with Debbie McGee, Simon Callow and Lorraine Chase for Celebrity Carry On Barging.
Havers, who has also appeared in the I'm a Celebrity jungle, said the experience was "great".
He added: "There were no spats, although we had to tell Lorraine Chase to shut up.
"She does love a chat. She fell in the river at the end – it was extremely funny."
