Episode 2

Tha Niall Iain Domhnallach agus Calum MacAmhlaigh air an uisge 's iad a' siubhail air a' Chanàl Aonaichte. Tha iad a' dèanamh an slighe bho Fountainbridge chun na h-Eaglaise Brice, air an giùlan le bàtaichean a tha air an t-slighe, agus a' rothaireachd air a' cheum-tharraing.

Niall Iain Macdonald and Calum Macaulay take to the water as they explore the Union Canal. At the start of the canal in Lochrin Basin, Niall Iain meets Allan Maclean, who tells him all about Edinburgh's rich brewing history.

Calum learns about the history of the canal from Taobh na Pairce pupils, who are on board the Lochrin Belle. Writer and poet Aonghas MacNeacail shares his memories of the canal from his days in Edinburgh, in particular its transformation from derelict area to beautiful walkways and cycle paths.

At the Falkirk Wheel boating pond, Niall finds Professor Donald Meek with his scale model of The Claymore, and they remember the old MacBrayne ferries. Back in Linlithgow, Calum and Niall compete in the annual cardboard boat race.
