Episodes
Mega Rollovers
In the Pennines, Alpha Recovery have sent a large crew to a very challenging and energy sapping recovery, a fuel tanker that has rolled down a steep, muddy hillside and landed on its side. If that wasn't enough of a challenge, the ground is soft and the closest the wreckers can get is 100ft away at the top of the hill. To get the tanker back on to the road, Incident Manager Simon uses all his experience and a huge digger to flip it back onto its wheels, but the challenges don't stop there.
There is an early morning call out for Steve when emergency services respond to a major incident near Loughborough. After heavy rains, a cement truck careered off the road before smashing through a fence and ending up on its side in a farmer's field. Steve must work out how to get the thirty-two-ton lorry back up on its wheels and out of the field. Just to complicate an already tricky recovery, the lorry has spilled its load – a hazardous concoction of cement, sand, and water. There is a very real risk of sustaining chemical burns and it is down to Steve to ensure the safety of the entire team.
Lantern recovery op Stuart is called out to assist on the rescue of a rollover. On arrival he finds an artic carrying at least 1,500 boxes of A4 paper has tipped over on a busy roundabout. It's going to be a massive job, there are police on scene, and an eight-man crew with multiple recovery vehicles will be needed to clear the carnage.

Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.

Except Aziraphale, a somewhat fussy angel, and Crowley, a fast-living demon--both of whom have lived among Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle--are not actually looking forward to the coming war.
And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist...
