What They're Saying

Critics Review

Tim FitzHigham is unhinged. He is completely without hinges.

Tim FitzHigham is unhinged. He is completely without hinges. – Eddie Izzard
It is a very, very brave man who takes to the wild seas in a copper bath with only a rubber duck for support … This is a very difficult challenge, so well done for keeping the art of British eccentricity well and truly alive. – Sir Ranulph Fiennes
I think it’s fair to say that though I’m fairly well connected in the boating world, I only know one person who has crossed the Channel in a bath! Tim is one of those special people you meet rarely in life … I respect him very much for being who he is, and not at all afraid of it! – Ellen MacArthur
Tim FitzHigham only exists because P. G. Wodehouse didn’t invent him first. – Dave Gorman
Tim FitzHigham, I salute you … Thank you for making this epic and hilarious voyage. – Richard Hammond
