0:00:02 > 0:00:07These wannabe heroes are working together to perform daring rescues.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Over the toughest terrain...
0:00:21 > 0:00:23..experiencing the highs...
0:00:25 > 0:00:26..and lows.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32There's a new emergency crew in town.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37I'm Rav Wilding and this is Hero Squad.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Six ordinary schoolkids.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Their mission, to learn how to save lives.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54But do they have what it takes to become real life heroes?
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Last time, the cadets rescued two Hero Squad Casualties
0:01:03 > 0:01:05from a freezing lake.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Squad leader Kyra struggled to take charge.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10You need to stay down there...
0:01:10 > 0:01:14And it was Sam who swam to victory to take the Hero of the Day prize.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20This time, the cadets take to the seas,
0:01:20 > 0:01:23crewing up the biggest lifeboat in the RNLI's fleet.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Can they rescue a woman who's injured, freezing cold
0:01:27 > 0:01:29and cut off by the tide?
0:01:33 > 0:01:36The cadets are on their way to a mystery training location.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43As always on Hero Squad, they have no idea what's in store,
0:01:43 > 0:01:46just that it involves a breathtaking journey to the
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Kintyre peninsula in southwest Scotland.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Their destination is Campbeltown,
0:01:55 > 0:01:58home to the Hero Squad for the next two days.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03This place is absolutely stunning, but so remote.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06It's a three-hour drive that way to the nearest
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Scottish city, which is Glasgow, 140 miles away.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12In fact, we're nearer to Belfast,
0:02:12 > 0:02:16which is a mere 60 miles that way across the Irish sea.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21The cadets have a tough day of training in store,
0:02:21 > 0:02:24that's if they can survive getting off the plane.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33First stop, the Tourist Information Centre
0:02:33 > 0:02:35to get some clues about what they'll be doing.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38- Yeah! - Scotland!
0:02:38 > 0:02:42Little do they know is that somewhere, in amongst all
0:02:42 > 0:02:45that highland cattle, is their mentor working in disguise.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Do you want this open or shut?
0:02:48 > 0:02:55Morning. Good to see you brushing up on your local knowledge, cadets.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Who's noticed this man behind the counter?
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Yeah?
0:03:00 > 0:03:01Morning, cadets.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05I'm David Cox, you can call me Coxy, and I'm your mentor.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07THEY LAUGH
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Mentor David Cox - Coxy for short -
0:03:15 > 0:03:18has been with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution
0:03:18 > 0:03:20for almost 30 years.
0:03:23 > 0:03:28Last year, RNLI lifeboats rescued almost 8,000 people around the UK.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35And in the last five years, Coxy and his crew rescued 146 casualties.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42I work with 26 guys who are volunteers.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43Every one of them has a day job,
0:03:43 > 0:03:47like what I'm doing in here at the moment, volunteering.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49When the pagers go, these guys respond
0:03:49 > 0:03:51and they turn up to the lifeboat to go on a rescue.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Coxy, there's a little prop down there
0:03:53 > 0:03:56that I want to show the cadets.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Thank you. - THEY GROAN
0:03:59 > 0:04:02So, cadets, who recognises this? Where have you seen it before, Lily?
0:04:02 > 0:04:04In our Hero Squad bags.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10The lifejackets were a big Hero Squad clue.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13So why do you think you might need one of these? Kyra?
0:04:13 > 0:04:17If you're out on the water it will help you save a life, basically.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18'That's right, Kyra,
0:04:18 > 0:04:21'and you're going to need it sooner than you think.'
0:04:25 > 0:04:27The cadets will be learning to operate the biggest lifeboat
0:04:27 > 0:04:32in the RNLI Fleet - the Severn Class all-weather lifeboat.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35SHE GROANS
0:04:35 > 0:04:38But first they're getting kitted up in dry suits for some basic
0:04:38 > 0:04:40inshore boat handling.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46Mentor Coxy has just one day to turn this lot into an RNLI crew.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51They each need to impress him, because one of them will be
0:04:51 > 0:04:54named squad leader for a tough Hero Squad rescue tomorrow.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59And that appointment will need Coxy's seal of approval.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10The cadets are being driven straight out to sea, RNLI style.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18They're on board Campbeltown's D-class inshore lifeboat
0:05:18 > 0:05:20and they're not just going to be passengers.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26OK, all the way. All the way.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Coxy's letting the cadets take the controls
0:05:28 > 0:05:30under the watchful eyes of his crew.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35That's Kyra driving.
0:05:37 > 0:05:38Perfect.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41At just five metres long,
0:05:41 > 0:05:44this lifeboat's pretty nifty in shallow water rescues.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48It's so cool, right.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51The front of the boat, it goes up and down and bounces.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54You're going to love it. It's like you're bouncing.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56And it splashes your face, like woah.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Keen Sailor Sam is finding it easy.
0:06:00 > 0:06:01OK, turn to port.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03In towards you.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Then round to starboard, so it's away from you.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09That's port to the left and starboard to the right.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Bring it right round.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Bringing it round nicely there.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18If they're going to be an RNLI lifeboat crew,
0:06:18 > 0:06:21the cadets must prove to their mentor they're confident at sea,
0:06:21 > 0:06:23and this lot certainly seem to be.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Do you want to do it?
0:06:29 > 0:06:31'But one cadet's looking worried.'
0:06:31 > 0:06:32- You'll be OK.- Are you OK?
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Can I have a word with Myles just myself? Myles, come here, son.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37'Maybe a pep talk from Coxy will help.'
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Myles isn't very confident about going in the boat.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46I think it's because he's got a slight fear of being on the water,
0:06:46 > 0:06:48but hopefully he'll do it.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50OK. You're going to have great fun.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Once you get your hand on that throttle and you feel that
0:06:52 > 0:06:55boat doing what you want it to do, you're going to love it.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Honestly, you'll have great fun.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Tennis-mad Myles is much happier on dry land
0:07:04 > 0:07:08and admits he can get nervous around water.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Swimming's not one of my strong points.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14I do other sports, but I'm not the strongest swimmer.
0:07:16 > 0:07:21But when he joined Hero Squad he promised he would take on anything.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Once I've set something I have to achieve it, I don't like to
0:07:24 > 0:07:30just give up, and I like to try my hardest and try my best.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39OK, let's go. Let's do it.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44After a bit of encouragement, Myles decides to give it a go.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49It's OK. You're now in control of the boat.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Myles may be taking it slower than the other cadets...
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- Nice and gently. - ..but he's keeping good control.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00OK, so keep going. Straighten up now. That's you.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06It wasn't easy for him, but Myles has proved he can cope at sea.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08That's good. Well done. Brilliant.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Crucial if you're going to be on an RNLI lifeboat crew.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15Well done, Myles.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19It tells a bit about the character if he's keen to have a go.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21So, no, fair play to him.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Myles did really well. He was really nervous at the start,
0:08:26 > 0:08:30but he's done really well to overcome a fear.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32You did very well.
0:08:36 > 0:08:41Tomorrow the cadets will need all their lifeboat skills...
0:08:41 > 0:08:45as they rescue an injured woman trapped at high tide.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48The only way to reach her is by heading out to sea.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50The cadets are going to need a bigger boat.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55How about this one?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59Campeltown's Severn Class all-weather lifeboat.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02It's more than 17 metres long,
0:09:02 > 0:09:07weighs 42 tonnes, and like other RNLI all-weather lifeboats
0:09:07 > 0:09:10it can self right if it capsizes.
0:09:16 > 0:09:1912- and 13-year-olds have never been allowed on board
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Campbeltown's all-weather lifeboat before,
0:09:21 > 0:09:25and this lot are about to handle some serious equipment.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28OK, prepare to launch the Y boat.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31For tomorrow's rescue, the cadets must be able to carry out
0:09:31 > 0:09:36a tricky manoeuvre at sea, launching and retrieving the Y boat,
0:09:36 > 0:09:38a tiny inflatable stored on board.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43We're getting ready to do the first launch of the Y boat.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46It's potentially dangerous,
0:09:46 > 0:09:50so Coxy's experienced crew will be supervising throughout.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55You've got to throw the rope up here.
0:09:55 > 0:09:56Everyone has their roles.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- You ready?- Yeah.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02Kyra and Maria up top, passing the ropes to Sam and Josh below.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Lily is operating the crane.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Lower! Lily, Lower!
0:10:11 > 0:10:15The only way they're going to do this is if they work together.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19OK, Lily, you're doing really well. Just lower it down slowly.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Much like the inshore boat, it can get right in to shallow water
0:10:25 > 0:10:28where the all-weather boat would run aground -
0:10:28 > 0:10:31that's anything less than two metres deep.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34You guys are doing really well. Well done.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38Good work. But what goes down must come up again.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41OK. Let's see if we can do as well bringing it back in, OK?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45An all-weather lifeboat rescue's not over
0:10:45 > 0:10:49until all equipment is safely back on board.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51The cadets will need to remember this tomorrow.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55You're doing really well, Sam. You're doing really well, Lily.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Kyra's naturally starting to take charge.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03- Kyra, pull the rope towards you. Kyra, pull the rope.- I am, Josh!
0:11:05 > 0:11:08But she's got competition from another cadet.
0:11:12 > 0:11:1512-year-old Josh likes to be the centre of attention.
0:11:15 > 0:11:22I think I'd describe myself as funny, outgoing but bossy.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26And when he wants something, he can be very persuasive.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28When I don't get my own way I get really grumpy,
0:11:28 > 0:11:32and when someone looks like they want to change their mind,
0:11:32 > 0:11:33I bug them...a lot.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36# In fact, don't take it seriously We're only buggin'. #
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- Are you ready? Yeah! - Just throw it!- I am!
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Looks like today it's KYRA he's bugging.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Kyra, you need to pull that quickly, OK?
0:11:45 > 0:11:47It's not me that needs pulling, Josh.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Now pull it towards you and get ready to throw it, OK?
0:11:49 > 0:11:50- Josh!- That's all I'm saying.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- Don't need you to say that. - Don't listen to anybody down there.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56He doesn't know what he's talking about.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59He doesn't know how stressful it is to catch and throw a rope.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05They've got the Y boat back in one piece,
0:12:05 > 0:12:08but it was by no means a smooth operation.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Bring it down slowly, Lily. You're doing really well.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14In tomorrow's rescue there can be only one leader
0:12:14 > 0:12:18and the others must follow, working together as a team.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Thanks for shouting, telling me to throw a rope, Josh.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23I know how to throw a rope.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31And as the cadets drive this £2.5 million lifeboat back
0:12:31 > 0:12:33to shore, it's clear that's not the only thing
0:12:33 > 0:12:35they need to learn to take control of.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41Josh is a bit bossy.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43He was telling me what to do when I knew I had it under control.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45I was listening to my instructor.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49So, I think sometimes he needs to just like think before he says stuff.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I think we should have a big serious talk about teamwork
0:12:55 > 0:12:59before our next rescue because it's a major issue in our group.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05Team tantrums aside, it's been an exhausting
0:13:05 > 0:13:07and exhilarating day of training.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11And as Lily drenches our filming boat,
0:13:11 > 0:13:13it's as good a time as any to call it a day
0:13:13 > 0:13:15and start choosing a squad leader.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Coxy and I have a tough choice to make.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26These plucky 12- and 13-year-olds have shown they can handle
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Campbeltown's lifeboats...
0:13:29 > 0:13:31from the smallest...
0:13:31 > 0:13:33to the biggest.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36But who's proved they can lead the others
0:13:36 > 0:13:39in a tough Hero Squad rescue tomorrow?
0:13:39 > 0:13:42The time's come for me to announce who's going to be Squad leader.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44The first one - Kyra.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Kyra, you did very well today.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49We thought she was a nice strong driver, didn't we?
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Yeah, very confident. It was good.
0:13:51 > 0:13:56You also seemed to take control of the 42 tonner very well.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01The next cadet we think did very well today - Maria.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03You were up there, throwing those ropes,
0:14:03 > 0:14:08- catching those ropes, both of which you did very well.- Thank you.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Sam, you were another cadet we thought did extremely well today.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16When you were given an instruction out on the rough sea
0:14:16 > 0:14:19you were taking that instruction on board.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21But tomorrow there's a tough challenge
0:14:21 > 0:14:26and we think, on everything we've seen today, the person that
0:14:26 > 0:14:29should lead the other five cadets for tomorrow's really tough
0:14:29 > 0:14:30challenge is going to be...
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Kyra.
0:14:36 > 0:14:37APPLAUSE
0:14:42 > 0:14:45'I feel really good about being Squad Leader.'
0:14:45 > 0:14:47I had no clue that I was going to get it
0:14:47 > 0:14:50cos I thought Myles would have got it cos he did really well.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52But I'm really excited that I got it.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55After a tough day of training, the transformation from cadets to
0:14:55 > 0:14:59RNLI lifeboat crew is almost complete.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04You don't have to be in extreme locations to be
0:15:04 > 0:15:06part of the Hero Squad.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Head to the CBBC games page now to find out more.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15The next morning the cadets are on call.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Every one of Coxy's lifeboat crew are volunteers,
0:15:17 > 0:15:21with jobs from builders to surveyors,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24but if their pages go off, they must drop everything to get to the
0:15:24 > 0:15:25lifeboat station.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32Morning.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Morning. What's that?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36What's this?
0:15:36 > 0:15:40These are your pagers.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Anyone here in the RNLI up in Campbeltown are volunteers
0:15:43 > 0:15:46and when these go off they have to respond,
0:15:46 > 0:15:48no matter what their normal day jobs are.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Page me up!
0:15:50 > 0:15:53LAUGHTER
0:15:53 > 0:15:56They've each got emergency pagers, but if they're going to be
0:15:56 > 0:16:02real RNLI volunteers they're still missing one thing - a day job.
0:16:05 > 0:16:10Luckily their hotel manager is looking for staff - cleaning staff.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Eugh! It's not even flushed!
0:16:12 > 0:16:15HE SINGS TO HIMSELF
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Well, I've just heard there's another room that needs
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- doing, number 22.- That's my room.
0:16:23 > 0:16:24Eugh!
0:16:24 > 0:16:25This is my room.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27It's like a stink bomb!
0:16:27 > 0:16:30- It's like a what, Maria? - It's like a stink bomb.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35What's that down there, Josh? Dirty old sock on the floor.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39I ain't picking up his underwear. That's something I'm not doing.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42ALL LAUGH
0:16:44 > 0:16:46I lost that one last night.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51While the cadets get their hands dirty as hotel cleaners,
0:16:51 > 0:16:53an emergency's about to unfold.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59At the other end of Campbeltown Loch,
0:16:59 > 0:17:02a woman's out exploring nearby Davaar Island.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07At low tide she can walk right across,
0:17:07 > 0:17:11but the rain is making the ground slippery.
0:17:14 > 0:17:15She's in agony.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19She can't walk and the tide's coming in.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25The Hero Squad casualty is trapped and exposed to the elements.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27She's getting dangerously cold.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Hello? Hello?
0:17:30 > 0:17:33ALARM BLARES
0:17:33 > 0:17:35The Hero Squad are on their way.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41They must pull on their RNLI kit
0:17:41 > 0:17:44and launch the lifeboat as quickly as they can.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49A real RNLI crew can do it in under a minute.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Come on, you guys.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Squad leader Kyra's in charge.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Hero Squad, this is Belfast Coastguard.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00Could you give us the position of the casualty?
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Myles is radioing the Coastguard,
0:18:02 > 0:18:06who co-ordinate coastal land and sea searches.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09On Davaar Island. She has an injured ankle.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12They have all the details from the 999 call.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17Bridge to Wheelhouse. The information is it's a woman.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21She's hurt her ankle and she's very cold.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Myles radios up the details to squad leader Kyra.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25Roger. Thank you.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27She'll be the one driving.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29- Let go forward.- Receiving.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42The cadets don't know exactly where the casualty is,
0:18:42 > 0:18:45just that she's injured on the island and desperately cold.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51They're going to need that first aid kit. Good thinking, Sam.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57The first aid kit is now on the middle of the boat.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Can you see anything?- Sheep.- Sheep.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03I don't think our casualty is a sheep.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Yesterday's differences forgotten, Kyra and Josh are working together,
0:19:07 > 0:19:11with Josh using the binoculars to try and spot the casualty.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16- Over there, on the island. - On the island!
0:19:16 > 0:19:18But from this distance, they can't be sure.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20We have spotted someone on a small island,
0:19:20 > 0:19:22but it might not be the casualty.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26We'll be checking it out, over.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Roger that. Over.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Nah, it's not the casualty. It's people walking.
0:19:35 > 0:19:36It's a false alarm.
0:19:36 > 0:19:41This is a busy tourist area. The casualty could be anywhere.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- Stand by to launch the Y boat. - Receiving.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49The all-weather boat can't get much closer.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51It'll run aground in shallow water.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Josh, Sam, are you ready?
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Kyra remembers the Y Boat.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58You guys, this is for real.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01We need to try and do it quickly and as best as possible.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04We've got someone out there to get.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06There's no casualty.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09The other cadets can't understand why Kyra wants to launch
0:20:09 > 0:20:13the Y boat before they've managed to spot the casualty.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16- There's no casualty! - That's what the boat's for,
0:20:16 > 0:20:19to go round the island to look cos we can't go any closer.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22Kyra's right.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26The all-weather boat can't go into water less than two metres deep.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30You guys, Josh, Sam, ready to get the boat on...
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Here comes the Y boat.
0:20:32 > 0:20:38The cadets must concentrate. There's no time for mistakes.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40It's crucial they remember their training from yesterday.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44- Josh!- Let's see if they can do it without any bickering.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Josh!
0:20:46 > 0:20:49And this time they're on their own.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52The RNLI will only step in if things become dangerous.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Are you ready?
0:20:54 > 0:20:57- Josh, Sam, are you ready? - Ready!
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Three, two, one.
0:20:59 > 0:21:00Excellent.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02It's a smooth start.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06Sam and Josh have got the ropes and the Y boat's in position.
0:21:06 > 0:21:07Good job, Josh and Sam!
0:21:10 > 0:21:11Now lower.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Just one more delicate piece of manoeuvring.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Out a bit, Lily.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25- Y boat deployed! - OK. Well done, you guys!
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Well done. Good teamwork, cadets. Good teamwork.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30'And they've done it.'
0:21:30 > 0:21:34Because of its size, only two cadets can fit on the Y boat.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35Kyra allocates her team.
0:21:37 > 0:21:42Maria driving and Lily on there doing first aid and navigating as well.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Their job will be to land on the island and search for the casualty.
0:21:46 > 0:21:47Good luck, you guys.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52But they still don't know where the casualty is.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58She's dangerously cold and in no fit state to move.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03It's down to Lily and Maria to find her.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04All-weather lifeboat,
0:22:04 > 0:22:09all-weather lifeboat to Y boat, are you receiving me?
0:22:09 > 0:22:12All the other cadets can do now is wait.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14They've reached the island.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Can anyone hear me? No.
0:22:21 > 0:22:22They've got to get going.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26The casualty needs urgent help.
0:22:28 > 0:22:32Maria's heading for higher ground, looking for any places
0:22:32 > 0:22:35the casualty might be taking shelter from the cold.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Hello?
0:22:37 > 0:22:40All-weather lifeboat to Y boat, are you receiving?
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Back on the main lifeboat, the others have no idea what's going on.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Are you receiving?
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Nothing. Sam's getting concerned.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Oh, my gosh!
0:22:56 > 0:22:58Maria's found the casualty.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Over here.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- What's your name? - It's Jo.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05- OK. So, you do have an injury? - Ankle.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08OK. So, what's happened to your ankle?
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Maria and Lily are so busy with the casualty
0:23:11 > 0:23:13they've forgotten to update their team.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17All-weather lifeboat to Y boat, are you receiving?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20I don't think they are.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23The casualty's been out there for almost two hours
0:23:23 > 0:23:25and she's shaking with cold.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27The first-aid kit Sam found is proving vital.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29RADIO CHATTER
0:23:30 > 0:23:33We've tried about three or four times
0:23:33 > 0:23:36and they're still not relaying anything, over.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38OK, let's get back in the boat.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Now they're satisfied the casualty's out of danger,
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Maria and Lily really should be letting the others know.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49All-weather lifeboat to Y boat, are you receiving us?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Lily, you need to reply to them
0:23:51 > 0:23:53or they won't know what's happened to us.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Bringing the casualty onto the Y boat, over.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59The Y boat is coming in.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05Well done, Lily. Now everyone's up to speed.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15The casualty's being transferred to the bigger all-weather boat,
0:24:15 > 0:24:18where there's warmth and first aid facilities.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22Let's get her up. Let's get her warm.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24'And while the others take care of the casualty,
0:24:24 > 0:24:30'Sam remembers the one thing they can't leave without - the Y Boat.'
0:24:30 > 0:24:32OK. Now drop it down a little bit.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37They have to retrieve it before they can finish the rescue.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41That's it. Well done, Sam. Nice and steady. Well done.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Coastguard, the casualty's now on board
0:24:46 > 0:24:48and we're making our way slowly.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55I'm really proud of our team today
0:24:55 > 0:24:58because even though there were some points where we were squabbling,
0:24:58 > 0:25:01we worked through and we all worked together as a team in the end.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04Wheelhouse to bridge. Wheelhouse to bridge.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Great driving, Kyra, keep it up.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Received and thank you, over.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14My favourite part of the rescue was...
0:25:14 > 0:25:15I'm not really sure.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I think every part was great...
0:25:17 > 0:25:21cos I think we did all really well and there wasn't a special moment.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23I think every moment was special.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25It feels really good to have done this rescue
0:25:25 > 0:25:28because no other 12- and 13-year-olds would have done that.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35The cadets have proved they can pull together as a team,
0:25:35 > 0:25:39transforming themselves into an RNLI Lifeboat crew.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Now all that's left is to award Hero of the Day
0:25:49 > 0:25:52for the most impressive performance during the rescue.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54So all cadets have done well,
0:25:54 > 0:25:58but we've got to pick a Hero of the Day - it's not going to be easy.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00No. That's a very difficult choice to make.
0:26:02 > 0:26:03It's a tough decision.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07More than one cadet has shone during this rescue,
0:26:07 > 0:26:09but who's stood out more than the rest?
0:26:09 > 0:26:12The first cadet - Kyra.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13Well done.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Fantastic. I couldn't have done it better myself.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Good control of the boat. You went where you were asked to go.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22I didn't need to tell you anything.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25The next cadet we thought did very well today is Myles.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Well done, Myles.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32You were on the comms and some good information was coming through.
0:26:32 > 0:26:37The last cadet we think just did that little bit more was Sam.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39There were certain times on that boat
0:26:39 > 0:26:41when you were the only one that was still there,
0:26:41 > 0:26:43doing things like getting the Y boat back up.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48So, the Hero of the Day that we've decided is...
0:26:52 > 0:26:56Kyra and...
0:26:56 > 0:26:57Sam.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00APPLAUSE
0:27:03 > 0:27:06In this rescue there were two deserving heroes.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08It feels really good to be Hero of the Day -
0:27:08 > 0:27:09I wasn't expecting it at all.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12This was the service I most wanted to work with
0:27:12 > 0:27:14and I'm really glad that I got Hero of the Day in it.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Their treat is a fish and chip supper,
0:27:19 > 0:27:21while the rest get cleaning, under Coxy's command.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25Right, guys, that's terrible. Come on. I want this boat sparkling.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Next time, the Hero Squad journey comes to an end,
0:27:32 > 0:27:35as the cadets train for their final challenge...
0:27:35 > 0:27:40with not one, but three different rescue services.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43It will be the ultimate test for our courageous cadets.
