A Good Night's Sleep
Guy visits an Industrial Revolution cotton mill to weave his own sheets on 19th-century looms, then builds his own mattress at the mattress-supplier to the Queen, in a bid to get a good night's sleep on board his narrowboat. He also makes his own version of another great British invention - an alarm clock.

Beans on Toast
Motorcycle racer and engineering enthusiast Guy Martin makes a tin can using a 200-year-old technique, bakes his own traditional bread, and learns why the best cutlery uses Sheffield steel, all to make the perfect meal of beans on toast.
Episode 5 • Mar 29, 2011
Make a Boat a Home
Guy and his best mate Mave decide to give their historic narrowboat a makeover. They learn about the most influential British interior designer of all, William Morris, while trying to stick up wallpaper he originally designed. They then master the fine art of narrowboat painting, and attempt their own version of the traditional decoration of castles and roses. Finally, Guy visits Paradise Mill in Macclesfield to learn how to weave silk for an interior decoration, using what is considered to be one of the first computers.
Episode 6 • Apr 05, 2011
The Homecoming
To celebrate the end of the project, Guy Martin shows off the renovated boat at a party, learns how to prepare Victoria sponge, and shoots a commemorative Victorian-style portrait with a 150-year-old camera. However, the maiden voyage is hampered by bad water and weather conditions, as the narrowboat struggles through inch-thick ice.
