- Synopsis:
The British Channel, 22-miles of water dividing the UK from Europe, is the busiest shipping lane in the world: 500 large ships every 24 hours, many more small craft and yachts. Over one billion, one hundred and twenty million tonnes of shipping pass through these waters every year - and one enforcement team keeps it all in check...Sea Patrol. Sometimes the simplest of accidents can lead to the most dangerous of rescues. A simple fall from a high rock can leave a fisherman or rock climber perilously at risk from violent seas, and helicopter rescue teams must risk their lives battling the elements to bring the injured to safety. Saving lives, however, is just the beginning of the story. Spotter planes identifying errant craft, inspecting fishing trawlers profiting from deception, searching out hidden contraband on rebellious vessels, unexploded bombs and live mines caught up in fishing nets, a tanker in distress in stormy seas...These are the challenges faced at sea, and now you can be there for the first time as cameras take you into the eye of the storm and you manoeuvre alongside Sea Patrol UK. - Actors:
