Archibald Collins (who worked a twelve hour day for six pounds a month) is interviewed by Mike Prince and reminisces about a rescue from flood water he made in 1951, his pet goose on the river and his work. We see library pictures of the flooded Severn, Collins at his lock and a brief library shot of a boat.
