REALITY: Dangerous Adventures For Boys
In tonight’s episode of the series that follows celebrity dads and their sons on their larks, comedian Vic Reeves and his 10-year-old son Louis take to the high seas in a 145ft tall ship.
The voyage to Eddystone Lighthouse, an area notorious for shipwrecks off Cornwall, sees the intrepid pair endure harsh weather and hard, physical labour, including climbing 100ft masts.
They also master the art of navigation and learn about life as a sailor in the 18th century, when boys as young as Louis were recruited into the Navy and sent to sea in perilous conditions.
