Join Joel Sanders, the charismatic star of Channel 4’s ‘Narrow Escapes’ as he dives headfirst into a life less ordinary.
Would you give up your life to become a nomad on the UK’s waterways?
Once upon a time, Joel crisscrossed America, determined to become the first British comedian to perform in all 50 states. His journey took him from rowdy redneck bars in the Deep South to the casinos of Las Vegas.
Sharing the stage with many of his comedy heroes, including the late Robin Williams, Joel was living life in the fast lane but when a fateful night in Tennessee flipped his world upside down, he came back to England, purchased a narrowboat and 18 years on, he’s still floating around.
'Angry Boater' is more than a night of comedy & entertainment; it’s a captivating blend of sharp wit and heartfelt storytelling.
You'll hear about what happened when Joel discovered a body in The River Soar last year, his life as a touring comedian, some bizarre celebrity encounters and what it's really like to live as a nomad on the UK's Inland Waterways.
You can catch up on Joel's adventures in ‘Narrow Escapes’ on the Channel 4 app.
In Season 1, follow Joel as he navigates between shows in London and Coventry. Paying homage to Phil Collins on Live Aid who performed two shows on the same day, 6000 miles apart, travelling by Concorde, Joel attempts to do two shows in the same month, 60 miles apart, travelling by narrowboat.
Season 2 sees Joel journeying from Birmingham to Sharpness, where he takes his narrowboat onto The Bristol Channel in the middle of the night.
“Joel Sanders, aka Angry Boater, is an absolute comedic gem! His razor-sharp wit, masterful storytelling, and brilliantly observational humour make for a night of non-stop laughter. Whether he’s sharing his unique experiences of life on the water or delving into the absurdities of everyday life, Joel captivates his audience with an energy that’s both electric and effortlessly relatable. His ability to turn the most mundane moments into comedic gold is nothing short of genius. If you haven’t experienced Angry Boater live, you’re seriously missing out on one of the funniest and most original acts around.”
Since its first performance 15 years ago, the record's eleven.
