Episode 15
The Alpha team have been called to a burning truck full of bricks on the A69. When they arrive it soon becomes clear the job is going to be far from straightforward as the fire has destroyed the air brake system and melted the rigid at its rear. Operations Manager Gary's only option is to manually unhitch the rear wagon and release all the brakes by hand, but the fire ravaged carcass means that every step of this recovery will be a challenge. To make matters worse, the fuel tank has sustained considerable damage, leaving gallons of diesel dangerously exposed.
In Hertfordshire Lantern Recovery Incident Manager Sean has been pulled away from HQ to rescue a tipper truck that has run aground. He has a challenge ahead as it is far down a private lane resting precariously against a fence, the wheels are sunk deep in mud and there is little space to turn. Sean's only option is to position his wrecker some distance from the casualty and then perform a challenging central pull using soft strops.
On a busy stretch of the M42 outside Birmingham a fully loaded Sprinter Van has limped onto the hard shoulder. The rear differential is broken meaning the van can no longer be driven, luckily Crouch Recovery op Joe has his flatbed truck at the ready. Joe needs to work quickly and carefully because he has busy rush hour traffic thundering past, making this a risky rescue.

American Pickers
This isn't your grandmother's antiquing. The American Pickers are on a mission to recycle America, even if it means diving into countless piles of grimy junk or getting chased off a gun-wielding homeowner's land. Hitting back roads from coast to coast, the Pickers earn a living by restoring forgotten relics to their former glory, transforming one person's trash into another's treasure. The show follows the team as they scour the country for hidden gems in junkyards, basements, garages and barns, meeting quirky characters and hearing their amazing stories. If you think the antique business is all about upscale boutiques and buttoned-up dealers, this show may change your mind – and teach you a thing or two about American history along the way.
McDonald & Dodds
McDonald & Dodds is set in Bath and follows the wildly ambitious DCI McDonald, who is partnered with the shy, modest DS Dodds. While McDonald has transferred from the mean streets of South London to leap up the career ladder, Dodds has happily languished on the shelf for most of his working life.
McDonald is a tough, driven, battering ram of a cop who cracks cases through sheer force of will; Dodds – the tortoise to her hare – is quiet, unassuming and enigmatic. But thrust back into frontline action for the first time in a decade, he discovers a hidden talent for deciphering puzzles. Two contemporary Britons, seemingly with nothing in common, thrown together, boss McDonald and loyal sidekick Dodds forge a rumbustious, entertaining and ultimately – give or take a few setbacks – effective partnership.
