Episode 3
Tha Donaidh MacAoidh a' coinneachadh nan gaisgich a tha a' seasamh ris an droch sh矛de. Donnie Mackay meets the heroes who take on extreme weather.
Ann am pr貌gram na seachdain seo, cha mh貌r nach eil Donaidh MacAoidh air a leagail le neart na gaoithe ann an Uibhist a Deas, agus g猫ile aig Forsa 12 a' sguabadh tro Innse Gall. Chan urrainn dhan einnseanair aig SSEN, Ailean D貌mhnallach an obair c脿raidh a bha e am beachd a dh猫anamh air a' phr矛omh loidhne dealan a dh猫anamh, ach tha e fhathast a-muigh a' lorg feuch a bheil dad ce脿rr.
Tha Donaidh cuideachd c貌mhla ri luchd-obrach c霉ram-dachaigh, Criosaidh NicRath ann an Ste貌rnabhagh agus Fl貌raidh NicDh貌mhnaill ann an Uibhist. Bidh an dithis aca a' dol a-mach anns a h-uile se貌rsa s矛de gus c霉ram a thoirt do sheann daoine, agus tha iad sin gu math taingeil 脿s an t-seirbheis a tha iad a' faighinn. Agus air an Loch Bhr霉sda aig CalMac, tha na sgiobairean, Donnchadh MacGaughan agus Iain Aonghas MacEanraig a' m矛neachadh cho cunnartach 's a dh'fhaodas an turas bho na Hearadh gu Be脿rnaraigh a bhith ann an droch sh矛de.
Donnie Mackay is almost blown off his feet in South Uist, as a Force 12 gale passes through
the Hebrides. SSEN engineer Allan MacDonald is unable to make the repairs he's planned to the main electricity line, but he's still out checking for any faults.
Donnie also joins home care workers Chrissie Macrae in Stornoway and Flora MacDonald in Uist. Both regularly brave the elements to visit their elderly clients, who appreciate the service they provide.
And on Calmac's Loch Bhrusda, skippers Duncan MacGaugan and John Angus Henderson explain just how treacherous the crossing from Harris to Berneray can be in bad weather.
