Episode 5
In Trearddur Bay, the RNLI crew battle through force-ten winds and huge waves to try to rescue a surfer - watched by their worried families back on shore.
The volunteer crews of the RNLI are often described as heroes, but it鈥檚 a word many of them find difficult to accept. In Trearddur Bay, Anglesey, Sara and her daughter Katie know only too well the ups and downs of Daf - husband and dad - being a long-serving crew member. When force-ten winds roll in from the Irish Sea, Daf and the crew battle through the waves to try to rescue a surfer.
On the same stretch of Welsh coast, the Llandudno and Rhyl lifeboats are involved in a desperate search for a fishing vessel that has been reported missing. In Appledore, in the mouth of the Bristol Channel, the crew are called out to rescue a woman who is stuck in the mud with the tide racing in. And on Fistral beach, on the north Cornish coast, the RNLI lifeguards are faced with a treacherous rip current that has left a young woman in grave danger.
