The documentary tells the inside story of what it is like for the paramedics dealing with the consequences of Storm Doris, which killed four people across the UK in February. The control room staff are fielding a third more calls than normal after a surge in wind-related injured, including three people trapped in a car by a fallen tree and a 94-year-old blown over while feeding the birds. With winds reaching more than 60mph, the Air Ambulance team has grounded and instead faces an agonisingly long journey by car on blue lights. Last in the series.
