Lantern recovery op Stuart has been tasked with rescuing a 26-tonne sewage tanker, fully loaded with waste material, that has got its nearside wheels wedged in a drainage ditch down a narrow muddy track. On top of having barely any room to manoeuvre, the tanker's tilting dangerously to one side, so Stuart must try and get the monster back onto solid ground without it toppling over.

In the Midlands, Crouch op Steve must try and rescue a mammoth 44-tonne artic that's got trapped in a water-filled ditch after the driver attempted to pass through flood water. Helped by fellow recovery op Dan, they attempt to haul it out using the winch. But no sooner have they got to work, than another truck attempting to avoid the flood water gets itself into trouble a few feet up the road. Could another recovery be on the cards before the boys can clock off for the day?

In the North East, Alpha op Aidan has been given the job of recovering a chunky tractor unit and trailer with handbrake problems, that's stuck at a busy service station. But with a huge truck to its side and another in front, Aidan faces the unenviable task of trying to rescue the casualty from an incredibly tight spot.

And south of Newcastle, a truck fully loaded with heavy industrial machinery has got itself jammed in forward gear. The casualty is stranded on a busy carriageway and it's up to Alpha op Kev to recover it. But when he discovers its prop shaft is the full length of the wagon and weighs more than him, Kev knows this won't be a simple lift and shift.

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
