The Old Man gets to meet the Seagull who pooped in his beard in the first episode. The Old Man is a bit cross with him at first, but he slowly thaws as the two of them discuss whether humans are more intelligent than animals, and what ‘intelligence’ really means.

The Old Man in the Boat is a podcast about an old man... in a boat. 

Out in the middle of nowhere is a large lake. And in the middle of that lake is an old man sitting in a boat.

Listen to the characters he meets like the worm who talks, and the seagull who does something awful to the man’s beard!

Listen, laugh and learn as the old man chats with the worm and even argues with his own shadow.

Starring Harry Enfield and Clarke Peters.

The Old Man In The Boat is a Message Heard production in association with Fun Kids. It is made possible thanks to funding from the Audio Content Fund.
