Terry and Monica Darlington are intrepid pensioners who made the surprising decision to sail their canal narrowboat, 'Phyllis May' sixteen hundred miles across to France and down to the Mediterranean, accompanied only by their whippet Jim. They took advice from nautical experts, who told them they would lose their boat and their lives (and, indeed, their whippet Jim).
