A voyage by narrow boat with Ken Dunham and his family to the centre of Birmingham along the once-flourishing Canal Navigations of the Black Country. Today this great waterway system has served its purpose - industry has turned its back on the 'Cut' but, with 'just a touch of Venice,' Park Head Locks, Gas Street Basin and Pudding Green Junction may come alive again - inland ports along a colourful cruiseway for voyaging into England.
