The narrowboat Renfrew plays the part of a French barge in the Timothée Chalamet film.

The narrowboat, Renfrew, features in the Wonka film with Timothée Chalamet and will be dropping into the Crick Boat show, in Northamptonshire.

Renfrew, which is based in Braunston in Northamptonshire, is owned by Peter Boyce, who said: "The plot has the young Willy Wonka living with his mother on a barge in France, smuggling refugees past Germans, and they use an English narrow boat - who was I to argue? "There are people looking to buy a boat, and get in to boating, there are existing boaters coming just to buy new kit, but also to meet up with old friends, and then we get people from Northamptonshire and further afield who just want a great weekend."One of the most dramatic sights of the show is seeing 30-tonne narrowboats being lifted into position by crane.
