There were a couple of clips in the trailer after this evening's
programme - the other (brief) one showed a dayboat or barge loaded with
something which might have been ingots. As the scenes used in the
trailer for this evening's programme (woman with parasol, and horse and
cart) were identified and discussed in the programme itself, let's hope
the same applies to the canal scenes!
