Neil Brewer
Neil Brewer (born 1954) is a British musician, who is best known for being a member of the 1970s rock band Druid and for presenting the last four series of Rosie and Jim. Brewer played the role of a musical narrowboat owner, who while floating along the canals, would make up songs based on the experiences he had. He sang a song at the end of each episode, accompanying himself on the concertina, and sometimes played the harmonica during episodes while seeking inspiration.
As of November 2018, he is the only surviving former presenter of Rosie and Jim; as Pat Hutchins died on 7 November 2017 of cancer, and John Cunliffe died on 20 September 2018 from heart failure.
Neil also played bass guitar in The Never Never Band and Splash after the demise of Druid.
