0:00:02 > 0:00:04This programme contains some strong language.
0:00:04 > 0:00:07Bangkok Airport is like no other airport on earth.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10- Welcome to Thailand. - The reason why we're smiling.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12It's where East meets West...
0:00:12 > 0:00:13Ching, ching, ching. Ching, ching, ching.
0:00:13 > 0:00:15..Buddhist meets backpacker...
0:00:15 > 0:00:16That way to the beach.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18..and traveller meets trouble.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20You'll never see me in Thailand ever again.
0:00:20 > 0:00:21- No! No! - HE TALKS IN THAI
0:00:21 > 0:00:22Yes!
0:00:22 > 0:00:24- And, if the culture seem strange... - Free hugs?
0:00:24 > 0:00:25..the language seems foreign...
0:00:25 > 0:00:26Sawasdee ka.
0:00:26 > 0:00:29..and you're 6,000 miles from home...
0:00:29 > 0:00:31I'm stuck in Bangkok.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34..don't panic. There's an army of staff waiting to help you out...
0:00:34 > 0:00:36RADIO BUZZES, ALARM BLARES
0:00:36 > 0:00:37..one way...
0:00:37 > 0:00:39How may I help you?
0:00:39 > 0:00:41..or another.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43Get in the line.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45So whether it's your gateway to a million
0:00:45 > 0:00:46once-in-a-lifetime experiences...
0:00:46 > 0:00:49It's all about love, love, love and love.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52..or just the ticket to a good, old-fashioned holiday nightmare...
0:00:52 > 0:00:53Look at all the cancelled flights!
0:00:53 > 0:00:55..this is your final call.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Really happy. Everyone.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01- Welcome... - Passport, please.
0:01:01 > 0:01:02..to Bangkok Airport.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Every year, millions of visitors pour into Bangkok Airport.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14But what happens when you can't pour out?
0:01:14 > 0:01:16I've lost my British passport.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18I need cash.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Today, a panic attack grounds Sarah in departures.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23- I need to go today.- It's a long time. Mm-hm?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25I need to go today.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Army vet John is down to his last 20p.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I'm thinking about just...
0:01:29 > 0:01:32doing something stupid and getting in jail.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35And Atul, from India, is detained by the tourist police.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37HE SHOUTS IN HINDI
0:01:37 > 0:01:41'I've been through such extreme behaviours'
0:01:41 > 0:01:43the battlefield being the airport.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Thailand may be a dream holiday destination...
0:01:46 > 0:01:48I think you've got to experience it, to be honest.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51..but where do you turn when there's no way out?
0:01:56 > 0:01:58They call Bangkok the "Airport of Smiles"
0:01:58 > 0:02:01and Darren from Chingford can't wait to see the back of it.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04- PLANE RUMBLES - As you can see, it's a beautiful,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06lovely, lovely airport.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09But, unfortunately, I lost my British passport, so I'm stranded.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11I want to go home.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15He may have lost his most precious possession,
0:02:15 > 0:02:17but Darren's not panicking.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19He's planning to pick up an emergency passport
0:02:19 > 0:02:21from the British Embassy first thing tomorrow.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24So, to the British Embassy. I'll see you in the morning.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Please get my visa, emergency passport ready.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Cos Darren Bond needs to go home.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Darren's missus is already on her way back to London
0:02:36 > 0:02:37and he's hoping that...
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- Ooh...- To be honest, I'm going to have to go.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41- I don't want to... Sorry to cut you short.- OK.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43But I really need to drive, cos I have a emergency funds,
0:02:43 > 0:02:47because I'm tired, but thank you for your time and Happy New Year and...
0:02:47 > 0:02:49We love England, mate. We're coming home.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52But, inside the terminal, things take a turn for the worse.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54An emergency passport costs money
0:02:54 > 0:02:56and the cash machine doesn't want to know.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Luckily, there's another cash machine next door,
0:03:00 > 0:03:02but that doesn't want to know either.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08I need £95 for the British Embassy
0:03:08 > 0:03:11to issue my emergency passport tomorrow.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17So I'm a bit erm...I'm trying to stay calm and find a solution.
0:03:17 > 0:03:18Erm, obviously, I'm in a...
0:03:18 > 0:03:21I've never been to Bangkok before in my life and erm...
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Yeah. I'm very tired, I haven't slept.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26But I'm going to call the bank, I reckon now.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30And, basically, tell them the situation.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32But calling a Mumbai call centre
0:03:32 > 0:03:34from a Bangkok payphone is famously hard.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Adviser, please.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Adviser, adviser, adviser, please.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44- HE SPEAKS SLOWLY:- I've lost my British passport.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47I'm stuck in Bangkok. Yeah?
0:03:47 > 0:03:50My missus is flying, now, to Heathrow.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52I need cash.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55My friend, my friend, your colleague, your colleague
0:03:55 > 0:03:57has confirmed it to me.
0:03:57 > 0:04:02Your colleague said after three minutes it will be released.
0:04:02 > 0:04:03I don't know what you're playing at, mate.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07Can't withdraw, don't shout at me. It's been 20 minutes, mate. Please?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Are you trying to depress me, mate, or what?
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Do me a favour and can you
0:04:10 > 0:04:13release my money, please? Cos I'm getting annoyed now.
0:04:13 > 0:04:14Is that...?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Hello?
0:04:17 > 0:04:20An hour ago, Darren had no passport.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Now, he's got no passport and no way of getting one.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Home is starting to look a long way away, but he's still not panicking.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28I know they're doing their job.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31I'm not putting the bank down, but they have...
0:04:31 > 0:04:34because of the extra stringent security, erm...
0:04:34 > 0:04:37It has put me in a bad situation, to be honest with you.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40So, I'm thinking, what am I going to do, man?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Then again, there are worse places to be stranded.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Well, I am going to say that this airport...
0:04:46 > 0:04:48..is one of the best airports I've seen.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57MUSIC: If You're Looking For A Way Out by Odyssey
0:04:57 > 0:04:59# If you're looking for a way out #
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Darren's not the only one having trouble leaving Bangkok Airport.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Oh, I'm lost now. I'm late.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- Hang on, where are we going? - I'm really not too sure.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12# And if you're looking for a way out. #
0:05:12 > 0:05:15The terminal's full of confused-looking tourists who are...
0:05:15 > 0:05:17- HE SINGS:- ..looking for a way out.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Still no idea where I'm going.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22- Er, it's stressful. - Yeah, stressful and...
0:05:22 > 0:05:23mental. Absolutely crazy.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- I think we're lost again. - Yeah, well...
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Only just got in the airport and we're lost already.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30This is how good we are.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Luckily, help is always at hand,
0:05:36 > 0:05:40because Bangkok Airport has its own dedicated police force.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44A 90-strong team who specialise in helping travellers in trouble.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Whatever your problem, chances are they're across it.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Among the elite corps are officers Teay and Baitong.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- BOTH:- Sawasdee ka.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56They're your first call when anything goes wrong.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59If they've lost something, they don't know anything,
0:05:59 > 0:06:01trust the tourist police.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02'Very funny world.'
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Very exciting world here. Everything is here.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Day and night, Baitong and the team tour the airport,
0:06:08 > 0:06:11looking for confused people to help.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Bemused Brits, a speciality.
0:06:13 > 0:06:14'When a person says they saw'
0:06:14 > 0:06:19the uniform of the tourist police and they think, in their opinion,
0:06:19 > 0:06:22they think the police can help them with everything.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25But it's all worthwhile when a grateful traveller leaves
0:06:25 > 0:06:27a message in the police friendship book.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- SHE READS - "Thank you very much to the cutest
0:06:30 > 0:06:32"police woman I ever met".
0:06:32 > 0:06:33Yeah!
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- Whoa! - LAUGHTER
0:06:37 > 0:06:39And, in their battle to keep the airport in order,
0:06:39 > 0:06:42the tourist police have a secret weapon.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44They call it a Segway.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47MUSIC: Blue Danube Waltz by Johann Strauss
0:06:52 > 0:06:54You control by the foot.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Forward and backward.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04When we turn left, move like this.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Turn right, move like this.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Great.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25But policing the airport is a serious business.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Baitong's been called back to base to help Teay deal
0:07:28 > 0:07:30with a British passenger in distress.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31THEY TALK
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I'm shaking. I've got no sugar in me.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Got no food.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Feel like I'm about to collapse.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45John's a former squaddie, who's spent the last two years travelling,
0:07:45 > 0:07:48but, after a run of bad luck, the road's ended here.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51His passport, plane ticket and money all stolen.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Basically, I'm stuck in Thailand.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57My visa's ran out. And I'm...
0:07:57 > 0:07:59- I've got no money, all been stolen. - Right.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00No food.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03No water.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05I've got ten baht in my pocket.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06I'm thinking about just...
0:08:06 > 0:08:08THEY TALK IN THAI
0:08:08 > 0:08:12..going and doing something stupid and getting in jail,
0:08:12 > 0:08:15where I can be found and looked after.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17John's desperate to get back to Britain
0:08:17 > 0:08:19and he's struggling to keep it together.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22I've took over 100 milligrams of diazepam in the last hour,
0:08:22 > 0:08:26just trying... Calm, to keep me calm.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28But they have been... They're trying to help.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Just take a seat. Breathe easy.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35We try to help and try to get some help from the embassy
0:08:35 > 0:08:37also to try to contact the airline for you.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39But you have to be cool for us. OK?
0:08:39 > 0:08:44- I am cool.- The problem can go away if you take it easy.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46'We have to talk with the embassy.'
0:08:46 > 0:08:48The last choice.
0:08:48 > 0:08:53So, maybe the embassy will contact his family or...
0:08:53 > 0:08:55someone who can help him.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Well, you can help me by erm...
0:08:58 > 0:09:00getting me back to England.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14I don't know what to do.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19So I'll make my way to the embassy now, yeah?
0:09:22 > 0:09:25They want to speak to one of yous, tourist officers.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27The embassy say they'll try to help John,
0:09:27 > 0:09:29but he'll need to show up in person.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32I talked to the embassy and they told me
0:09:32 > 0:09:34- you have to take a taxi to go there, - HE GRUNTS
0:09:34 > 0:09:36- but the taxi you have to pay by yourself.- I'm...
0:09:36 > 0:09:40- Of course?- I c... What? With ten baht?
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- TEAY TALKS - Oh!
0:09:43 > 0:09:47I'll rob your stuff, or I'll go to jail.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49The problem is he don't have money to pay.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51He said he have only ten baht.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55With John down to his last 20p, Teay and Baitong
0:09:55 > 0:09:57decide to help him out of their own pockets.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59We'll give you some money.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Private money we will give you.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Private money?
0:10:03 > 0:10:05I don't know. I'm not sure how much,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- THEY TALK IN THAI - but I will give you 300 baht.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10For transport and accommodation to embassy.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17THEY TALK IN THAI
0:10:20 > 0:10:24John's beginning to feel there's no way out.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26I was all nice and happy yesterday.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Ready for my trip back to the UK.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33See the friends and family.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35HE CHOKES
0:10:41 > 0:10:42HE RETCHES
0:10:44 > 0:10:46HE COUGHS
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Is there erm...tissues in the back?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Drank my water too quick.
0:10:52 > 0:10:53HE COUGHS
0:10:56 > 0:10:59At the embassy, John's given some money for the night
0:10:59 > 0:11:02and an appointment for tomorrow, but his future's still up in the air.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Who knows?
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Maybe I'll have to live on the streets of Bangkok.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10And er...
0:11:12 > 0:11:15I've got a cushion in my bag and...
0:11:16 > 0:11:18..a pillow, so...
0:11:18 > 0:11:20just...
0:11:20 > 0:11:22be on the streets of Bangkok.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25For the next few years. Join...
0:11:26 > 0:11:30..I'll find some other homeless gangs.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46If getting out of Bangkok can be tough,
0:11:46 > 0:11:48getting in isn't a doddle either.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Immigration is your first barrier
0:11:50 > 0:11:52and it can be a tense time for new arrivals.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54You know you've not done anything wrong,
0:11:54 > 0:11:56but just seeing all the guards, you're like...
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Just hold on to my bags.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01They told me to shave, cos they prefer
0:12:01 > 0:12:02if you come in their country shaven.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04I'm kind of worried about my passport number.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07It's not the same as the old one.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09I don't want to be banged up here.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Sorry, I'm in a bit of a tizz. I thought I had it all.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14The golden rule is to have all your paperwork ready.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Have I not giv...? It's not that one, is it?
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Bangkok's one of the top long haul destinations
0:12:20 > 0:12:22for young British backpackers.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Hang on. I've got...
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Sorry. I do have it here.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Lara's jacked in her job to spend a year travelling.
0:12:28 > 0:12:29Photo, please.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33Somewhere.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37But even backpackers need an address for their first night.
0:12:37 > 0:12:38I don't know if they're...
0:12:38 > 0:12:39It's on Khaosan Road.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Thank you.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44'I was a bit scared then. For a minute there.'
0:12:44 > 0:12:47But now I'm through passport control, I feel excited again.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Mm! Yay!
0:12:49 > 0:12:51My bag made it. Woohoo!
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Bangkok can be overwhelming, but Lara's done her research.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57'The flight was long, but I just watch films.'
0:12:57 > 0:13:00One of which was The Beach, because I thought it would prep me
0:13:00 > 0:13:02for coming to Thailand and I'm really glad I watched it.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Can't wait to see Bangkok tonight.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Lara's going to meet her friend, Becca, at the airport,
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- but where is she?- Erm... No sign of Becca.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Uh-oh. She should be here by now. She should be, shouldn't she?
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Oh. Hang on, I got a text. OK.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18She can't get through immigration without the hostel details.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Becca's here. Can't wait to see her. I'm so excited.
0:13:23 > 0:13:24Woo-hoo!
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Eventually, they're reunited.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27- Hello.- You're here!
0:13:27 > 0:13:29'The people at immigration seemed really nice, actually.'
0:13:29 > 0:13:32When I said I didn't have my hotel details, she just went, "Oh, no."
0:13:32 > 0:13:34So, I'm guessing it happens quite a lot.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38This is it. This is where all of it actually starts.
0:13:38 > 0:13:39I want to feel the heat!
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Lara and Becca have one night in Bangkok.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45Just time to taste the nightlife, before coming back to the airport
0:13:45 > 0:13:47to catch the early morning flight to Phuket.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Well, that's the theory.
0:13:49 > 0:13:50We're going to spend one night in Bangkok.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Please, Khaosan Road?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55'And, tomorrow, we're going down to Phuket early in the morning.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57'We're flying at eight in the morning, so whatever we do tonight,'
0:13:57 > 0:14:02we have to make sure that we are completely with it tomorrow.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08'I'm hoping we're not going to sleep tonight.'
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Sorry, Mum. Erm...
0:14:10 > 0:14:12we'll go down Khaosan Road, mix in with the backpackers
0:14:12 > 0:14:15and, then, go straight on our flight tomorrow.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16We have to make the most of it.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17You snooze, you lose.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31While Lara's adventure is just beginning,
0:14:31 > 0:14:35in downtown Bangkok, Darren just wants a way out.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Basically, I've come in to get an emergency passport, erm...
0:14:39 > 0:14:43and to get back home to the United Kingdom, basically.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45To London, where I live with my family all my life.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48The bank has unblocked his card, but ploughing through
0:14:48 > 0:14:51the application process is a real ballache.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54It's very stressful. But I'm trying to stay calm and just get it done.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Because, if I start worrying, then, I'm not going to get it done, so...
0:14:57 > 0:14:59I'm trying my best to stay calm.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03Darren's not alone. Britain's near the top of the international
0:15:03 > 0:15:06lost passports league table, who like to keep airport staff,
0:15:06 > 0:15:08like Khajib, on their toes.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13The number one case for British people is lost passport.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17Every day, tourists tell me, "We forgot it in a taxi",
0:15:17 > 0:15:18"We forgot it in a toilet."
0:15:18 > 0:15:20And it's not just us Brits.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23I forgot to take it with me, when I got off the plane.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Maybe on the toilet I put it, or erm...
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Can you give me your name, please?
0:15:29 > 0:15:31So, you will see many passports here.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35- SHE LAUGHS - This one and this one.
0:15:35 > 0:15:36Lots of passports.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41Reuniting passenger and passport isn't always straightforward.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43John's stolen passport is just the latest
0:15:43 > 0:15:47in a string of misfortunes that have left him stranded in Bangkok.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Well, I was in the Grenadier Guards.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53I joined when I was about 20 years old.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55The first three years were doing public duties,
0:15:55 > 0:15:58standing outside Buckingham Palace, you know?
0:15:58 > 0:15:59With the big bearskin and the...
0:15:59 > 0:16:03Yeah, so it was quite strict and mundane.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07And, then, Afghan was just a total different ballgame.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09It was...
0:16:09 > 0:16:10just...
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I suppose... Well, it was a war zone, weren't it?
0:16:13 > 0:16:14We went into a village
0:16:14 > 0:16:18and, then, the Taliban just came out with an RPG.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22Struck me, I think it hit me in the chest.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24And took my fingers off.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26I can't really tell you much after that.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29I woke up in Birmingham six weeks later.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30I had a traumatic brain injury.
0:16:32 > 0:16:33Erm...
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Lost most of my left hand,
0:16:36 > 0:16:41a few scars, broken jaw, a few broken bones here and there.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45It was a tracheotomy. I think they done it on the helicopter.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49I'm not sure how they done it, but it damaged my voice box a bit.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51So...
0:16:52 > 0:16:55But I'm alive. That's the main thing.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Many of us ain't.
0:16:57 > 0:17:02John left the Army five years ago, but part of him still misses it.
0:17:02 > 0:17:03I want to see the world.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05That's what I joined the Army for, but, obviously,
0:17:05 > 0:17:07I'm not in the Army any more.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10So, I'll see the world on my own.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15This trip, this is to, basically, find myself, I suppose.
0:17:17 > 0:17:18And...
0:17:18 > 0:17:20hopefully, return to England...
0:17:22 > 0:17:23..a better man than I left.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27But England seems a long way off.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31For the moment, at least, he's stuck in Bangkok with no way out.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44At Bangkok Airport, Jacob, Brad, Dane and Grant
0:17:44 > 0:17:47are looking for a way out, too.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- I don't even know where we're going. - We don't know where the exit is.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53We've come this far, we can't get lost now. We're here.
0:17:53 > 0:17:54- Exit.- Yeah, that way.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56The boys from Kent have just flown in.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59They've taken a month off work to discover Thailand.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01I work in a fish and chip shop.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- Er, Dane's a delivery driver. - I'm a delivery driver.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- Grant's a scientist.- Yeah.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- And Jacob's a zookeeper. - Nah, I just work for a safari park.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11He's a lion tamer.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Go with that. It's so much cooler.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17The boys will travel round the islands for a month,
0:18:17 > 0:18:20ending up at the Full Moon party at Koh Phangan.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23It's somewhere we've never been before, so we thought
0:18:23 > 0:18:26we'd change it up. Rather than going on a normal lads' holiday to
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Malia or Magaluf, or anything like that, it would be
0:18:28 > 0:18:31a bit better to go further afield and see more of the world.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33I don't know. Just do Thailand while you're young,
0:18:33 > 0:18:36while you don't have responsibilities, kids or anything.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Just get it out of the way and done with. There's a month!
0:18:38 > 0:18:40I'm going out there for a month.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I think you got to experience it, to be honest.
0:18:42 > 0:18:43I think you've got to take it by the horns.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46And just rattle it into submission, sort of thing.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48- LAUGHTER - Getting in deep with ladyboys.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- LAUGHTER - Oh, no!- Oh, that's bad!
0:18:53 > 0:18:57I'll come out for the parties. That's about it, really.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59I got to be careful what I say. My missus will be listening.
0:19:01 > 0:19:02I'm the only one with one.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Under the thumb and you're nowhere near.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06- That's it.- Hundreds of miles away! THEY LAUGH
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- Do you know where it is?- Yeah.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14But nothing in Kent prepares you for that first blast of Bangkok heat.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18- Oh, my God. It's warm. - Oh-ho-ho-ho! Good...
0:19:18 > 0:19:20- ..God!- It's really hot.- It's really hot.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23I'm wearing ski socks, cos my feet got a bit cold.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- THEY LAUGH - It's like Where's Wally?
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- I'm sweating. - We need to get straight in the pool.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Need to go and jump in a pool and get a beer, or something.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32- And just chill out.- Yeah.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Cold beer and a swimming pool sounds amazing right now.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38So, are they ready for the trip of their lives?
0:19:38 > 0:19:41The worst thing, like, obviously, one of us falling ill,
0:19:41 > 0:19:43getting injured, ending up in hospital.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45That's got to be the worst thing. Worst-case scenario.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49- Touch wood, that won't happen. - I wouldn't say it's dangerous.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51- Hello?- Just ain't as dangerous as what you think it is.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Quite possibly, yeah.- Every country's dangerous.- Yeah. Yeah.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Every country's dangerous in their own way.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58It makes it more dangerous us never being here,
0:19:58 > 0:20:01so we're going to have to keep our wits about us, as we're going round,
0:20:01 > 0:20:03and keep our heads screwed on.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05We like to think we're four intelligent lads
0:20:05 > 0:20:07and we'll be able to manage it, but...
0:20:07 > 0:20:08I guess time will tell.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12The boys may be quietly confident,
0:20:12 > 0:20:15but holiday mishaps are ten to the baht in Thailand.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18At the medical centre, travellers can find their holiday
0:20:18 > 0:20:22extended indefinitely if doctors decide they're not fit to fly.
0:20:22 > 0:20:23On standby today...
0:20:23 > 0:20:24Sawadsee ka.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26..is Dr Parn.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Working here inside the airport is quite a stressful job
0:20:29 > 0:20:33and complicated, because we don't deal with just the diseased.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35'In some cases, they don't want to postpone the flight,
0:20:35 > 0:20:39'so I have to advise them that you should not fly.'
0:20:39 > 0:20:42If you fly...
0:20:42 > 0:20:44everything will become worse and nobody can help you.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49On the plus side, the hours are good and you get your own Segway.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Everybody would like to use it, too.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57When we pass a group of people,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00they will be shouting out loud, "That was a Segway!"
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Mm-hm. Very exciting.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Suddenly, the medical centre takes a call.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07There's an emergency in departures.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09I was informed that there was a patient
0:21:09 > 0:21:12that has a difficulty of breathing.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14So we have to go to the fourth floor.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16THEY TALK, ALARM BLARES
0:21:18 > 0:21:20With initial details sketchy,
0:21:20 > 0:21:23doctors never know exactly what to expect.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25'I cannot predict what I will see, with the patient.'
0:21:25 > 0:21:29Maybe just only fainting, hyperventilation, or maybe...
0:21:29 > 0:21:30- THEY TALK - the real serious problem.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33ALARM BLARES
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Up on the fourth floor, Dr Parn finds 22-year-old Sarah
0:21:40 > 0:21:43in the grip of an apparent panic attack.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45THEY TALK IN THAI
0:21:45 > 0:21:47SHE WHIMPERS
0:21:47 > 0:21:50- It's OK.- It's OK, it's OK. - Everything will be fine.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53SHE CRIES
0:21:54 > 0:21:55- MACHINE BEEPS - You can breathe,
0:21:55 > 0:21:59because your oxygen is OK. Your oxygen is very normal.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01- OK. OK.- OK?
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- MACHINE BEEPS - OK?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- RADIO BUZZES - Where are you flying to?- Melbourne.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08- But it's a long time. - I need to go today.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09- Mm-hm?- I need to go today.- Yes, I know.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13And what time are you flying? When is your flight?
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- Two o'clock.- Two o'clock?- 2.15pm.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17- I see.- Melbourne 6am.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19- Don't worry. We still have time. OK? - I need to...
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- SHE GROANS - OK?
0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Come on, I'll check for you.- No! No needles.- No needles?- No needles?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Could we ask you a question?
0:22:26 > 0:22:29What is the cause making your panic attacks?
0:22:29 > 0:22:30Oh, just...
0:22:30 > 0:22:34- I've been worried about where I am. - Mm-hm.- Because I was sick.- Uh-huh.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36- Let's check now.- My family have
0:22:36 > 0:22:38- high blood pressure heart attacks. - Uh-huh.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39MACHINE BEEPS, THEY TALK
0:22:39 > 0:22:43But, right now, it's fine. 120/80.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- It's normal. It's very good.- OK. - Don't worry.
0:22:45 > 0:22:46THEY TALK IN THAI
0:22:46 > 0:22:50With Sarah hyperventilating, Dr Parn wants to calm her down
0:22:50 > 0:22:52back at the medical centre.
0:22:52 > 0:22:53I will bring you to our clinic
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- on the first floor. - SHE GROANS
0:22:56 > 0:22:58With your luggage. OK?
0:22:58 > 0:23:03The first things that she said to us is that she's got panic attack.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06I haven't deserved any of this. Stupid.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08So, it means that this is not the first time
0:23:08 > 0:23:09that she's suffered from this.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Maybe it happened so many times.
0:23:12 > 0:23:17I'm just dizzy, cos I just didn't breathe properly for a long time.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20- Where are we going? - Our clinic in the airport.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22When we saw her, we check her blood pressure,
0:23:22 > 0:23:26her oxygen, everything is fine. Just only from her stress.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30- I just want to go on the plane.- Yes.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Right now, I will bring her to our clinic.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36Maybe we will observe her, for her clinical, for at least 30 minutes.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Sarah's going to have to calm down quickly
0:23:39 > 0:23:41if she's going to make her flight back home.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Many passengers find themselves staying in Bangkok
0:23:56 > 0:24:00longer than they bargained for, like Lara and Becca.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03They're back at the airport after their night out on the Khaosan Road.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04- There, see?- Yes!
0:24:07 > 0:24:09We've got about ten minutes to spare, if we're lucky.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12They missed their early morning plane to Phuket,
0:24:12 > 0:24:15so they've had to book a new flight and, now, they're late for that.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17So, last night, we went out in Bangkok.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20We went down Khaosan Road. Went to a few bars and things
0:24:20 > 0:24:23and it was all good, we left on time.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25And, then...yeah, we didn't set our alarm.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27And we woke up at 9:30.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29And we were meant to be in Phuket at 9:30.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33I hope we have enough time to go through security.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35We'll find out now. I hope so.
0:24:35 > 0:24:36No. This is it, I think.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Phuket attracts more than ten million visitors a year
0:24:41 > 0:24:44and most of them seem to be checking in today.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47I'm freaking out a bit. I'm think I'm going to go and ask someone.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50A staff member...
0:24:50 > 0:24:51if we're going to be OK.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54Cos we need to check in by 11 and it's now...
0:24:54 > 0:24:57nearly 11:30 and I'm freaking out.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Is that someone? I'll go and ask the guy, OK?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05The only way out is to jump the queue.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08To miss one flight might be careless, but to miss two...
0:25:08 > 0:25:10The lady said that I can check in on the machine.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12- Shall I go and try and do it, while you're there?- Yep.- OK.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20Please be OK.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23It's printing boarding passes. Yay!
0:25:23 > 0:25:24They've got their boarding passes,
0:25:24 > 0:25:27but just 20 minutes to make the gate.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30We're all checked in and we've got to go and get our flight now.
0:25:30 > 0:25:31Whoo!
0:25:42 > 0:25:44And when they finally get there...
0:25:44 > 0:25:48- It's delayed.- Can you believe it? - How very dare they?- How erm...
0:25:48 > 0:25:50There's the plane! Let's just get on. I'm knackered.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Ugh, let's just get on. Just go.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54We could have been on the beach by now.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57TANNOY: Flight PT 924 bound for Phuket
0:25:57 > 0:25:59is now ready for boarding.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Wahey! We can't wait to get on that flight.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04- TANNOY ECHOES - Yeah, next stop Phuket.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Five hours later than planned, they're finally on their way.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09And their adventure is just beginning.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16While Lara and Becca head off to the islands,
0:26:16 > 0:26:17there's good news for Darren, too.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20He's finally got hold of his emergency passport
0:26:20 > 0:26:21and London's calling.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29- HE LAUGHS Yeah!- Yeah!
0:26:29 > 0:26:32London Town, baby!
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Touch it? Nope! HE LAUGHS
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- Wow.- Oh, thank you for everything. I've got the passport now.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- I'm going home.- Uh-huh.- We say in England, "sweet, sweet home".
0:26:41 > 0:26:42'Ey? Do we?
0:26:42 > 0:26:43- Yeah.- Thank you.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47England, mate!

0:26:49 > 0:26:51Boom, boom. So, let's go.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53Back to England.
0:26:53 > 0:26:54Hello, sir.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56The British man is going to go now.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59You take care. Thank you.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01Thank you.
0:27:01 > 0:27:02Airport please, sir.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04- Hello, mate.- Hello.
0:27:04 > 0:27:05- You OK?- Yeah, OK.- Good.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10- Thank you for the drive to the airport.- Yeah?- Yeah, thank you.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13- You're welcome.- Pleased, cos we've got the passport now.- Uh-huh.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15We can leave Bankoky. DRIVER TALKS
0:27:15 > 0:27:18Ah! I, you know, apply for passport.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Yes, passport now. English one. British.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23- You like that? - Taxi, uh?- Yes.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Oh, no good!
0:27:25 > 0:27:27- No, we can leave now.- Yeah?- We can leave Bangkok.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- London, OK.- No, no. - Let's go.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Darren's holiday hasn't gone quite as planned.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Here we go. Check-in time. Yeah!
0:27:38 > 0:27:40But he's seeing it as a learning experience.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43It's been very difficult.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47A lot of paperwork involved and I would advise anybody...
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Just be so cautious with your British passport,
0:27:49 > 0:27:53because you don't realise how valuable it is until you lose it.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57- Erm...passport. - Yes.- Please, be careful, please.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59Great Britain. Here we come.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01But not quite yet.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03- Paperwork, please?- Sorry? - Fill the form.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06- I fill the form first?- Yes.- Shall I go over here and come back?- Yes.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08Thank you. OK.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10Darren's forgotten to complete his boarding card.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12- You come back here. - Can I borrow a pen, please?
0:28:20 > 0:28:22While Darren tackles his final piece of paperwork,
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Sarah's in the medical centre, still unsure whether
0:28:25 > 0:28:27she'll be able to catch her flight.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33- I just want to get on the plane! - Just don't worry.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34- That's my bag!- OK.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36It's not bumping my back.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39MACHINE BEEPS I'm OK. Where's my passport?
0:28:39 > 0:28:42THEY TALK IN THAI
0:28:42 > 0:28:43I feel like a medical prisoner.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47After Sarah's panic attack at the gate,
0:28:47 > 0:28:50Dr Parn must decide if she's fit to fly.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52And what about the tablets that you take for panic?
0:28:52 > 0:28:55- I just breathe into a bag. - I will prescribe some for you.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58- I can't do injec... I don't do needles.- No injection, just...
0:28:58 > 0:29:01- I can't. No, I can't.- Maybe, could you put it under your tongue?
0:29:01 > 0:29:03- I can't. I can't.- OK. - SHE SPEAKS IN THAI
0:29:03 > 0:29:06- Is it a needle? I don't like needles. - Actually, it's not a needle.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08- It's just...- It's a...- Oh, OK.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11- No, under armpit.- OK.- Mm-hm?
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Please...
0:29:13 > 0:29:15Sarah's suffered panic attacks in the past,
0:29:15 > 0:29:18but it's worse when it happens so far from home.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21'It normally happens when I'm with lots of people. In a crowded space.'
0:29:21 > 0:29:24And a bit stressed.
0:29:24 > 0:29:25And they normally last a couple of hours
0:29:25 > 0:29:28and I get better by breathing through a McDonald's bag.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31But I can't communicate that to anyone.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35Cos no-one understood me, or was just staring at me. Mm.
0:29:35 > 0:29:36Mm-hm.
0:29:37 > 0:29:41I think that most foreign passengers...
0:29:41 > 0:29:43quite often do get panic attacks.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48This condition is not a real, physical disease,
0:29:48 > 0:29:50it's just a mental disorder.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54The attack is just the latest in a series of holiday mishaps.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58I don't think Thailand likes me very much.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Food poisoning...
0:30:00 > 0:30:03I did a cooking class and got chilli in my eye.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06SHE WHISPERS: Oh, I just want to go.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09- It's a beautiful country.- Mm-hm.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14After Sarah's had a 15-minute nap,
0:30:14 > 0:30:16Dr Parn returns to deliver her verdict.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19- Feeling better now?- Feeling better.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22OK. Don't worry. I will make a call to inform the airline staff
0:30:22 > 0:30:25that you're fit to fly, so they can check in for you.
0:30:25 > 0:30:26A moment.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29'I think that, so far, for this case, she can fly,'
0:30:29 > 0:30:31because she knows what happened to her
0:30:31 > 0:30:32and she knows how to control that.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34So I don't concern a lot.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37Am I staying in the wheelchair, or am I walking?
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- I bring...- You're going to take me? That's good.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42TANNOY ECHOES
0:30:42 > 0:30:46I had to give the medical certificate and, then, it was sorted.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Very easy. Straight through, bags all packed in,
0:30:49 > 0:30:50so I'm off to Melbourne.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Sarah's got her fit to fly certificate,
0:30:54 > 0:30:55but how fit to fly is she?
0:30:56 > 0:30:58I'm not feeling good at all.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00Dizzy, I feel like I'm going to vomit.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02I don't know how I'm going to be like with takeoff,
0:31:02 > 0:31:04but I need to be on this plane.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07As boarding time nears, the anxiety returns.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Oh! I don't like the look of those planes taking off.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17For a moment, it's not looking great.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20I can't do this.
0:31:20 > 0:31:21How am I going to do this?
0:31:21 > 0:31:23But, at the 11th hour, she rallies.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27Hope it goes quickly.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Joining the crowds this month are Brad and the boys from Kent.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03You've got to do the Full Moon. It's part of the package.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06It's one of those things you've got to experience once.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13After ten days, the boys are having a great time.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15Apart from the odd dodgy curry.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17Some of the food has gone straight through me.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19- It's absolutely ridiculous, like... - THEY LAUGH
0:32:19 > 0:32:23- It's just undescribable.- Don't eat as much Thai food as everybody says.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26- Yeah.- That's not a great idea.- It's good to pick at the culture,
0:32:26 > 0:32:28- but, really...- It goes straight through you. It's horrible.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Everyone was like, "Yeah, just a bit of sauce",

0:32:38 > 0:32:41And it does. It really does. It's weird. It's just ridiculous.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44Thai tummy aside, the main worry is Brad's complete failure to pull.

0:34:06 > 0:34:10mobile and money. But where and when and how?
0:34:10 > 0:34:14I really can't tell you, because I don't even know it myself.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16At the parties, it's Koh Phangan.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10- Oh, no. It's leaking, I think. - Eugh, oh.- Oh, no.
0:39:10 > 0:39:11Right, let's go empty it.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26As Grant's condition worsens, Lewis stages an intervention.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28I got him some water, a sandwich and some crisps.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31This going to be fun 12-hour flight, anyway.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35The crisps seem to do the trick.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37A bit of chunder come out, then be all right.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40- You'll be all right, boy. Get up and walk it off.- Yeah.
0:39:40 > 0:39:44And after that little hiccup, Beam clears Lewis and Grant for takeoff.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46He is ill, but he is quite healthy,
0:39:46 > 0:39:48so he is fit to fly.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08As Lewis and Grant jet home,
0:40:08 > 0:40:10Army vet John's back at the British Embassy
0:40:10 > 0:40:12hoping for his emergency passport.
0:40:12 > 0:40:16And, today, he's in a more positive frame of mind.
0:40:16 > 0:40:20Yeah. I feel good today. I feel more optimistic and happier.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23I was a bit down in the dumps yesterday.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27I now need to get an emergency passport,
0:40:27 > 0:40:31and, then, a flight out of here, hopefully.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33Number 35.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35Looks like I've got quite a long wait.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37I'm going to sit down and read my book for a bit.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39It's OK.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42The British Embassy in Bangkok deals with around 9,000 customers a year,
0:40:42 > 0:40:45so a good book's not a bad idea.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49Sitting reading my book, Shantaram.
0:40:49 > 0:40:53It's about a guy on the run in India with no visa.
0:40:53 > 0:40:54And no passport.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57Starting to sound familiar.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00Could be... Could be me writing a book like this
0:41:00 > 0:41:02in the next few months.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06John's case is more complicated than most.
0:41:06 > 0:41:10This isn't his first emergency passport and his visa's lapsed.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13The embassy say they'll help, but it'll take time.
0:41:13 > 0:41:17He just told me what the score was, says he has to wait five days.
0:41:17 > 0:41:18So I'm in bit of trouble at the minute,
0:41:18 > 0:41:20but I've been through worse.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25But if he's going to stay in Bangkok,
0:41:25 > 0:41:26John's going to need money.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28So who are you going to call?
0:41:28 > 0:41:29Hello, Mum.
0:41:31 > 0:41:32Er, still in Thailand.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Have you got £400 I could borrow till Wednesday?
0:41:41 > 0:41:44While John faces five more days in Bangkok,
0:41:44 > 0:41:47Officer Baitong and the tourist police have been called
0:41:47 > 0:41:50to the airport concourse to deal with another traveller in distress.
0:41:50 > 0:41:54After two weeks travelling round Thailand, Atul has been found
0:41:54 > 0:41:59wandering the airport perimeter half-naked and with no belongings.
0:41:59 > 0:42:02Hello. Can I help you?
0:42:02 > 0:42:03What problem?
0:42:03 > 0:42:04Do we have some problems?
0:42:04 > 0:42:06- Yeah.- We are tourist police. We will help you.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09OK. I came here on the...
0:42:09 > 0:42:12Atul starts telling an incredible story.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15He says he's been hiding near the airport all night
0:42:15 > 0:42:16in fear of his life.
0:42:16 > 0:42:20Baitong takes him back to tourist police HQ to find out more.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26I want to get back to India as soon as possible, before I lose myself.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28I've lost everything else, apart from me.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30I've been running from the men.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32- I was being chased. - Who was chasing you?
0:42:32 > 0:42:34Hoh-ha! How do I know?
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Thai person?
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Yeah, a Thai person.
0:42:38 > 0:42:40How many persons?
0:42:40 > 0:42:41Er, 10, 15?
0:42:41 > 0:42:44OK. We were looking for your T-shirt for the cold.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47Yeah. Just one short and one T-shirt.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Take a shower first and then I will call the embassy.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52And contact your family.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54The police try to cheer him up by giving him
0:42:54 > 0:42:55one of their official T-shirts.
0:42:57 > 0:42:58SHE LAUGHS
0:43:00 > 0:43:02We have some T-shirts, but we don't have the...
0:43:02 > 0:43:04- No, that's OK.- OK?
0:43:04 > 0:43:05When Atul doesn't laugh,
0:43:05 > 0:43:08Baitong realises something's seriously wrong.
0:43:08 > 0:43:13I think he has something wrong with himself.
0:43:13 > 0:43:14But...
0:43:14 > 0:43:15we don't know.
0:43:15 > 0:43:17He didn't tell us.
0:43:17 > 0:43:19I think he has some illness.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23And he looked hungry.
0:43:23 > 0:43:24The police get him a sandwich,
0:43:24 > 0:43:27but he still seems anxious and distressed.
0:43:27 > 0:43:31The first time in my life I got the scare.
0:43:31 > 0:43:34That scared. Never had it.
0:43:34 > 0:43:35I never had it.
0:43:35 > 0:43:38You have to buy a new ticket
0:43:38 > 0:43:42or make a new passport. All right?
0:43:42 > 0:43:44- HE MURMURS - You need to tell the Indian embassy.
0:43:46 > 0:43:49Atul speaks to his embassy, but it's Friday night -
0:43:49 > 0:43:51they're about to close for the weekend.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54- What did they say?- Hm? - What did they say?
0:43:54 > 0:43:57They say Monday you come and we'll get you moved.
0:43:57 > 0:44:00- Pardon?- Monday you come.- Monday?
0:44:00 > 0:44:03With nowhere to go and no money, Atul will have to spend
0:44:03 > 0:44:07the next two days at the airport alone and Baitong's worried.
0:44:07 > 0:44:10'I think, when you go to another country...'
0:44:10 > 0:44:11I know that feeling.
0:44:11 > 0:44:15When you don't have family, you don't have friends,
0:44:15 > 0:44:17you don't know how to talk with another one.
0:44:17 > 0:44:20You don't have money to pay for food.
0:44:20 > 0:44:21You cannot fly.
0:44:22 > 0:44:25I think this feeling is not good,
0:44:25 > 0:44:28so it does mean I have to help him.
0:44:42 > 0:44:44Down at the medical centre,
0:44:44 > 0:44:48Ellen is hoping for the all-clear to fly home to Sweden.
0:44:48 > 0:44:50On my calf, I have erm...
0:44:50 > 0:44:53- like, wounds from the fangs, from the dog...- Mm.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55..which are quite deep and those are open,
0:44:55 > 0:44:59- so they have drainage in them. - OK. Good.
0:44:59 > 0:45:00- Follow me, please.- Yeah.
0:45:02 > 0:45:06Ellen had been in Thailand just three days before disaster struck.
0:45:06 > 0:45:09I got bitten by a dog while walking.
0:45:09 > 0:45:13Unprovoked, actually. I didn't do anything to the dog.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15I was walking by the beach and, suddenly,
0:45:15 > 0:45:17I felt something around my leg.
0:45:17 > 0:45:21So, I didn't even really see the dog before it had happened.
0:45:21 > 0:45:25So, we immediately went into the medical centre.
0:45:25 > 0:45:30They saw it had gotten infected, so I was hospitalised for five days
0:45:30 > 0:45:33and they had to do a small surgery on the front of my leg.
0:45:33 > 0:45:38With more than 100,000 stray dogs on the streets of Bangkok alone,
0:45:38 > 0:45:42it's a growing problem for the medical team led by Dr Art.
0:45:42 > 0:45:43Sawasdee kap.
0:45:43 > 0:45:48We do hear of a lot of patients with a dog bite, or monkey bite.
0:45:48 > 0:45:51Also, because the passengers always like
0:45:51 > 0:45:55to go to play with them... Yeah. Then, they just...yeah.
0:45:55 > 0:45:59Ellen acted quickly, but that didn't stop the wound getting infected.
0:45:59 > 0:46:01She's got the selfies to prove it.
0:46:01 > 0:46:03SHE LAUGHS Don't pass out.
0:46:03 > 0:46:05This one got over 100 likes.
0:46:05 > 0:46:08When you have holes in your leg, I guess it gets reactions.
0:46:08 > 0:46:10With Ellen's flight leaving in the next 24 hours,
0:46:10 > 0:46:14she needs a fit to fly certificate before she boards the plane.
0:46:14 > 0:46:17- Hello.- Hello.- I'm Dr Chainikom.- Hi. - Nice to meet you.- Nice to meet you.
0:46:17 > 0:46:20- So, you got a dog bite?- A dog bite. Yes.
0:46:20 > 0:46:23- It's a big one?- Yeah, a big one. Nasty dog.
0:46:23 > 0:46:26He hadn't brushed his teeth, cos they were dirty, so I got infected.
0:46:26 > 0:46:28- I haven't really looked, myself... - No, no, no, no.
0:46:28 > 0:46:30- ..cos I don't want to see it. - It's really good.
0:46:30 > 0:46:32- It's really good?- On this side.- Oh, great.
0:46:32 > 0:46:34- It's really good that side.- Yep.
0:46:34 > 0:46:36For Dr Art, it's a clean-up job.
0:46:36 > 0:46:39The hard work's been done, luckily for Ellen.
0:46:39 > 0:46:41The wound looks quite deep.
0:46:41 > 0:46:44That's why we have to protect the drain gauze
0:46:44 > 0:46:47inside the wound to release the pus.
0:46:48 > 0:46:52The dangers of this is that, if she didn't get a good treatment,
0:46:52 > 0:46:57she may lose her leg, later on, due to infection.
0:46:57 > 0:46:58I do like my leg.
0:46:58 > 0:47:00SHE LAUGHS
0:47:00 > 0:47:03So the wound's re-dressed and Dr Art's happy to let Ellen fly
0:47:03 > 0:47:06after a holiday she won't forget.
0:47:06 > 0:47:08The plan was to go scuba diving.
0:47:08 > 0:47:10SHE LAUGHS That didn't happen.
0:47:10 > 0:47:12Sometimes things don't go as planned.
0:47:15 > 0:47:18- You're finished.- OK. Thank you so much.
0:47:19 > 0:47:23But the experience hasn't put Ellen off Thailand. Just dogs.
0:47:23 > 0:47:26I'm actually kind of more of a cat person.
0:47:26 > 0:47:28Especially now, I would say.
0:47:37 > 0:47:41Atul spent the night sleeping rough at the airport,
0:47:41 > 0:47:43but now he's been brought back in
0:47:43 > 0:47:45after police found him in an agitated state.
0:47:45 > 0:47:47No deserve, no deserve, no deserve.
0:47:47 > 0:47:49No. You smoking? You OK?
0:47:49 > 0:47:51- No, I don't smoke.- OK, good.
0:47:51 > 0:47:53Baitong's worried about his mental health.
0:47:53 > 0:47:55'Yesterday he is not like this.'
0:47:55 > 0:48:00He looked like a normal person yesterday, but not like today.
0:48:00 > 0:48:02Hello. Hi.
0:48:02 > 0:48:03Hi, my name is May.
0:48:03 > 0:48:06As concern grows, the police bring in Nurse May
0:48:06 > 0:48:07from the medical centre.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09So, the police call us,
0:48:09 > 0:48:12because we just want to make sure you're all right, so...
0:48:12 > 0:48:15do you mind if I just sit and talk, OK?
0:48:15 > 0:48:18She quickly realises Atul needs help.
0:48:18 > 0:48:21Erm, so there is no place for you to stay here,
0:48:21 > 0:48:24so, like you say, there's a lot of tourists here. A lot of passengers.
0:48:24 > 0:48:27You need a bed. You need to get some rest. OK?
0:48:29 > 0:48:32We want you to just...to see a doctor in the hospital.
0:48:32 > 0:48:34OK?
0:48:34 > 0:48:36There's going to be someone taking care of you there.
0:48:36 > 0:48:37OK?
0:48:37 > 0:48:39Can you stop for the minute?
0:48:39 > 0:48:42But Atul declines treatment and decides to leave.
0:48:42 > 0:48:44THEY ALL TALK Where are you going, sir?
0:48:44 > 0:48:47- No, no, no. Stay in here.- No, no no, no. I'm talking to him.
0:48:47 > 0:48:49These people are stopping me. These people are stopping me.
0:48:49 > 0:48:51Give them time. Give them time. OK.
0:48:51 > 0:48:53HE SPEAKS IN HINDI
0:48:53 > 0:48:56Let me go, otherwise all of you get shot.
0:48:56 > 0:48:59As he becomes more excitable, Nurse May makes a decision.
0:48:59 > 0:49:02HE SHOUTS IN HINDI
0:49:04 > 0:49:07She orders him to be sedated.
0:49:07 > 0:49:08HE SHOUTS IN HINDI
0:49:09 > 0:49:12THEY ALL TALK
0:49:12 > 0:49:14You don't play a fair game.
0:49:14 > 0:49:18Listen. Can you just...have a seat? We'll not harm you.
0:49:18 > 0:49:19I've talked to the general,
0:49:19 > 0:49:22I've informed them the moment my voice stops...
0:49:22 > 0:49:23they can assume I'm dead.
0:49:23 > 0:49:27- No, no, no, no. You just...- Yeah, we don't go...- Let's figure out a plan.
0:49:27 > 0:49:29I'm going to live and you're going to live to 100.
0:49:29 > 0:49:32Five minutes later, Atul is showing no signs of calming down.
0:49:32 > 0:49:35Normally, one shot is working, but for him,
0:49:35 > 0:49:39one shot did not react well, so we have to do the second shot.
0:49:40 > 0:49:42IN THAI:
0:49:45 > 0:49:49The family want us to send him to the hospital
0:49:49 > 0:49:50and get some treatment.
0:49:51 > 0:49:54And he'll be stable enough to fly home.
0:49:56 > 0:49:59Finally, the ambulance takes Atul downtown,
0:49:59 > 0:50:02where he can be properly cared for at a specialist hospital.
0:50:22 > 0:50:24After their holiday of a lifetime,
0:50:24 > 0:50:27the boys from Kent are heading back home.
0:50:27 > 0:50:28Here we go. PG 902.
0:50:28 > 0:50:32They made it around the islands, with just the odd wrong turn.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34- We went to the wrong airport at one point on this holiday.- Yeah.
0:50:34 > 0:50:37Next time we come travelling, we're going to take our parents,
0:50:37 > 0:50:39so we actually know where we're going, what we're doing.
0:50:39 > 0:50:42They can just sit in the corner, while we just have some fun.
0:50:42 > 0:50:43THEY LAUGH
0:50:43 > 0:50:46That's what I mean. You don't actually feel clean, though.
0:50:46 > 0:50:47Cool ones, like me. THEY TALK
0:50:47 > 0:50:50After various upsets, the guys have kind of given up on Thai food.
0:50:50 > 0:50:54We stuck to, like, the old pizzas and burgers and stuff.
0:50:54 > 0:50:57We've been so Western, it's unreal.
0:50:57 > 0:50:59Not even the Western food agreed with me out here.
0:50:59 > 0:51:01I've just had a bad stomach the whole time.
0:51:01 > 0:51:04Brad didn't pull, but he won't be going home empty-handed.
0:51:04 > 0:51:06I bought a really cool, like, antique.
0:51:06 > 0:51:08- THEY LAUGH - Oh, my God. Yeah.
0:51:08 > 0:51:10Looks like something from Jumanji.
0:51:10 > 0:51:12This must be 150 quid.
0:51:12 > 0:51:14It's got, like, a tattoo kit in it.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17Like the old, traditional tattoo kit and I was like,
0:51:17 > 0:51:21"That looks pretty expensive", so I thought I'm going to buy that.
0:51:21 > 0:51:24And we went back the next day and she had another one sitting there.
0:51:24 > 0:51:26- THEY LAUGH - She said this was really rare.
0:51:26 > 0:51:30And he's got the tattoo to go with the kit. Just like Dane's.
0:51:30 > 0:51:33- Then SOMEONE copied me!- I got it done...
0:51:33 > 0:51:35But we've got it in different places.
0:51:35 > 0:51:37We always said we were going to get matching tattoos.
0:51:37 > 0:51:39One of the lines means that you become
0:51:39 > 0:51:41more attractive to the opposite sex.
0:51:41 > 0:51:42That intrigued me.
0:51:42 > 0:51:45- HE LAUGHS - That's the main reason I got it.
0:51:45 > 0:51:47While Brad dreams on, the boys head for the gate
0:51:47 > 0:51:49after one last Thai meal.
0:51:49 > 0:51:51LAUGHTER
0:51:51 > 0:51:53- Yeah. It was horrible. - What you on about?
0:51:53 > 0:51:56- That triple burger? - Chicken? The chicken stuff?
0:51:59 > 0:52:02In Bangkok, John's not had a square meal in three days,
0:52:02 > 0:52:06but, today, he's one step closer to finding a way out.
0:52:06 > 0:52:08Got a phone call from my mum now.
0:52:08 > 0:52:11She's been worried for the last couple of days.
0:52:11 > 0:52:15Erm, she's lent me the money to get a flight home.
0:52:15 > 0:52:18So that's part of my mission.
0:52:18 > 0:52:22So I'm on my way now to get to the Western Union to get some money.
0:52:22 > 0:52:23I'm down to my last 20 baht.
0:52:24 > 0:52:27God bless mothers, eh?
0:52:27 > 0:52:31A quick trip to pick up the cash and his immediate troubles are over.
0:52:31 > 0:52:34Yeah. I've got 36,000 baht, which is enough for my flight,
0:52:34 > 0:52:38but now I've got to wait whether I can get a passport or not. So...
0:52:38 > 0:52:41I've got enough to live and survive.
0:52:41 > 0:52:44John's now got the money to stay in Bangkok till he's issued
0:52:44 > 0:52:47with the paperwork that will finally bring him back to England.
0:52:50 > 0:52:53And, after three days in hospital,
