Colin and Shaun have moved their live catch-up out of midweek and into Friday evening. The setting is familiar, their Highland studio, but the invitation now comes at the end of the working week.
Their only new upload drew nearly 6,000 views. In "Foxes Friday Night LIVE!: New Fortnightly Slot. ⚡️ 7:00pm (UK) Friday 6th November.", the conversation wanders from an Edinburgh comedy-club visit to emergency supplies and the division of kitchen duties. Shaun does almost all the cooking; Colin supplies a cautionary tale about microwaving a potato. Later, a gold sequinned jacket signals that "What's in Colin's Bin?" is open for yes-or-no questions.
The canal connection hasn't disappeared beneath the studio chat. "The Unexpected Story Behind This Edinburgh Canal Boat" is currently attracting the most daily views of their videos. Colin joins Panacea on the Union Canal, meeting founder Karen Bradford, skipper Mark and volunteers Alistair and Grace to explore The SORTED Project's recovery-support work. There's also his first attempt at steering a widebeam, with a crosswind at Leamington Lift Bridge adding a practical complication.
The channel's subscriber total was unchanged over the week, while daily views are running at less than half their usual level. Among nearby outdoor channels, Samson's Whitetail Mountain is having a particularly busy spell; Tanner Farmstead is also quieter than usual.
Their caravan-switch video continues to draw viewers too: the Coachman is staying on a seasonal pitch, and Colin says they're already counting down to the next caravan season.
