Episode 1
The volunteers of the RNLI race to save two paddleboarders being swept into a shipping lane, search for a missing fisherman and abandon a crewmate鈥檚 wedding when the pager calls.
For many lifeboat crews, volunteering runs in the family, stretching back generations, while for others working so closely together means crewmates can often become like a second family. At Swanage lifeboat station, two brothers Matt and Gavin, following in their father鈥檚 footsteps, race to rescue a pair of novice paddleboarders before they are swept out into the busy shipping lanes.
On the north east coast, the tight-knit crew at Withernsea scour the North Sea searching for a local fisherman, and friend of the crew, who is missing at sea. Meanwhile on the opposite side of the country in Blackpool, a volunteer鈥檚 wedding day is interrupted by an urgent call for help.
