Synopsis/Details
After realizing that they are all a bit fried from their idler lives working in the 1880's London clerking industry, three bachelors decide they might be better if they do one of the popular holidays of the day and take a boating trip up the Thames for 2 weeks. The trip becomes a unique travelogue of Thames life coupled with comedic insights into how modern life has spoiled these men who are virtually incapable of taking care of themselves. It is one of the first early modern comic masterpieces that hinges upon adorable yet self absorbed train wrecks.
