Episode 9
On the busy A42, at rush hour a car transporter goes up in smoke. Fire has quickly spread from the tractor unit to the trailer, dangerously igniting the hybrid vehicles it was carrying. It's critical that the burnt-out cars are removed and tested by the fire crew to check if they are still at risk, because damaged EV lithium-ion batteries can quickly get hot and reignite. Both carriageways are closed to keep the public safe as Steve Kelly from Crouch coordinates the mammoth clear up with a five-person team. The cars need to be craned carefully off the unstable wreckage, tested by the fire crew, and if they are too hot, they need to be cooled off in the latest bit of recovery kit - the EV cool tub.
In the south, teamwork also makes the dream work for Lantern when Daniel and Sean find themselves on a job off the beaten track. An A-class Mercedes missed the turning on a roundabout and took a nosedive down a steep bank colliding into woods. The ‘Lantern Horticultural team' get busy with their chainsaws and axes to clear a pathway before they can winch out the casualty. But first, they need to get a handle on their gardening tools.
Called out from home on the night shift, Dave from Alpha is sent to a job in the dark. A single decker bus has somehow managed to lodge itself in the mud on a mini roundabout outside a shopping centre in Middlesborough. What should be a ‘mini' problem becomes a big headache as Dave struggles to find something strong enough to attach his chains to. He needs his wits about him to extract the bus as it's firmly stuck between a curb, a deep hole, and a turning.
