0:00:02 > 0:00:06Today on Real Rescues, the race to save a cow and its unborn calf.
0:00:06 > 0:00:10You need to lay flat on your belly and put your arm down alongside her torso.
0:00:10 > 0:00:13The heifer's stuck in six feet of slurry
0:00:13 > 0:00:15and it's starting to give birth.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Two men are pulled from the sea, moments from drowning.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Rescue workers battle to save them.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31And a 999 call - a fire at a pub.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38The thatch is alight, as customers drink inside.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00Hello and welcome to Real Rescues.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Throughout this series we've followed the work of the police, fire and rescue, ambulance
0:01:04 > 0:01:06and coastguard
0:01:06 > 0:01:09and within the services there are many specialist units,
0:01:09 > 0:01:11trained to cope with more unusual emergencies.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14For example, the fire and rescue service has experts trained to deal
0:01:14 > 0:01:16with incidents involving animals.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Today, we're going to an extraordinary rescue,
0:01:19 > 0:01:21one the animal specialists will never forget.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28The fire and rescue service are needed at a farm just outside Winchester.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31A valuable animal is in danger.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36A desperate sight greets them - a cow is struggling to stay alive
0:01:36 > 0:01:38after falling into six feet of slurry.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44There's not just one life at risk here - this heifer is pregnant.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48What's worse, it's all happening as it was being moved to give birth.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52This animal's been in labour for two hours.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Animal specialist Anton Phillips and his crew will have to work
0:01:55 > 0:01:58in liquid animal waste to free the heifer.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00The cow was really wound up.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03You can tell by looking in their face, looking in their eyes,
0:02:03 > 0:02:07and this particular heifer, she was really upset, really wound up
0:02:07 > 0:02:09and probably really scared.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14The plan is to pull the animal out with straps.
0:02:14 > 0:02:20They will operate on inflatable pathways to minimise their exposure to the slurry.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Got to slide it down. Literally just guide this across now.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26You're in.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30The environment is full of flies. The smell is horrendous.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33In fact, it gets into absolutely everything.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Those suits will smell for weeks afterwards.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38It's a very difficult environment in which to work.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Just gently, gently.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42First, the heifer must be sedated.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44All right, cow. All right, cow.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49A frightened animal like this could kill with one kick.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Good girl, good girl.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56In a human emergency, you can normally reassure a casualty.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Because it's an animal, we had no way of saying, "Calm down,
0:02:59 > 0:03:02"help is on the way."
0:03:02 > 0:03:03Good girl.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07Weighing around 600kg, in water, in fluid,
0:03:07 > 0:03:10potentially, that cow could bring one of us down and drown one of us
0:03:10 > 0:03:12or several of us.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14We needed a very decent amount of sedative.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Vet Pete Platt has to get all of the tranquilliser in.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Two jabs and it's done.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Good girl.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24He has only moments to put on the head restraint
0:03:24 > 0:03:27which will keep the heifer's head out of the slurry.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33The crew have just 45 minutes to get this animal out of the slurry
0:03:33 > 0:03:35and then remove its unborn calf.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Duncan, you're going to need to lay flat on your belly
0:03:38 > 0:03:40and put your arm down alongside her torso.
0:03:40 > 0:03:41It's the worst job.
0:03:41 > 0:03:46With their arms at full stretch, they try to pass the strops under the animal.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49The stench is almost overpowering.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Yeah. But even with a strop guide to help them,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58locating the strop ends is proving desperately difficult.
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Finally, success.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05Just check - is it behind her front legs, guys?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Behind her front legs and nice and tight?
0:04:08 > 0:04:10And then we're going to try and slide her up onto a path.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Yeah. We're going to need a tractor to pull it.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22With the help of a tractor, the heifer is inched onto the inflatable pathway.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29Once on board, they can now pull it to the base of a concrete ramp.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Stop, stop! Right, stop.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Anton wraps a sheet around the heifer's head
0:04:42 > 0:04:44to protect its eyes from the gravel.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Bit more, then. Go on.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48It's then moved onto a rescue mat.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Just there. Lovely, OK.
0:04:50 > 0:04:55The pressure is on. To save this animal, they have to get her calf out
0:04:55 > 0:04:57and do it before the sedative wears off.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59That'll do for a minute.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Hang on. She's waking up, boys and girls.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05We felt really pressured because we could hear people saying in the background,
0:05:05 > 0:05:08"15 minutes, 10 minutes.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10"Come on, guys, we've got to be quick."
0:05:10 > 0:05:15Then a worrying discovery. The calf's hooves are visible.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18The protective sac around the calf has been broken.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Cow man Pat Wilcox knows both calf and mother have been exposed
0:05:22 > 0:05:24to the toxic slurry.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27The risk of infection is high.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I remember talking to Pat and saying, "There's no hope.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32"This isn't going to be alive. No way."
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Pat's not going to give up on one of his prize heifers.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Later, cow man Pat fights to save the mother and the calf.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52Air-sea rescue at Lee-on-Solent.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54There's an emergency on the Sussex coast.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58On duty, winch man and paramedic Alf Kitwood.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04The pilot heads east. They're going to West Wittering,
0:06:04 > 0:06:07a popular beach, especially at the height of summer.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13The coastguard is reporting a group of people in trouble in the water.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18A call came through for multiple casualties in the water
0:06:18 > 0:06:22off Wittering's beach, which is something not the norm,
0:06:22 > 0:06:26so quickly into the aircraft and en route.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28We're trying to fathom out exactly what was going on.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33At least one person is reported as unconscious and not breathing.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36It's early evening but the beach is still packed.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38It's impossible for the helicopter to land
0:06:38 > 0:06:40but they can't delay this rescue.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43I needed to get down on the beach as soon as possible.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Looking down onto the beach, it was incredibly busy.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51It was packed out for a summer's day.
0:06:52 > 0:06:57Couldn't find a space to land, so the pilot elected to winch me down over the sea
0:06:57 > 0:07:00and then manoeuvre into a position to put me onto the edge of the beach.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Recorded on Alf Kitwood's helmet camera,
0:07:03 > 0:07:06a group of people is seen huddling around a man on the sand.
0:07:06 > 0:07:11He's too weak to move but he is breathing, thanks to the lifeguards.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31An ambulance crew is already on the beach.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Paramedic Steve Andrews brings Alf up to date.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45RADIO: Go ahead.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Alf goes to check the second casualty.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08It's clear the two casualties were just moments from drowning
0:08:08 > 0:08:11when they were pulled from the water by a vigilant jet-skier
0:08:11 > 0:08:13and trained lifeguard.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16I noticed there was a dark shadow in the water.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19It wasn't until I was about five to ten metres away
0:08:19 > 0:08:23that I realised it was actually a body face down in the water.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26So I approached him, I grabbed an arm,
0:08:26 > 0:08:29swung him onto the back of my jet-ski.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31I had to rope in a member of the public as well
0:08:31 > 0:08:34to help me clamp him onto the back of the rescue sled.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37But James' work is not over. There's another man in trouble.
0:08:37 > 0:08:42As I did this, I noticed there was a second casualty in the water,
0:08:42 > 0:08:45probably another ten, 15 metres further out
0:08:45 > 0:08:47into the middle of what we call The Trench.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50This guy was face down on a body board.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51His head was out of the water,
0:08:51 > 0:08:55so immediately, it was my priority to get the first one in as quickly as possible.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59When I pulled the first guy out, there was really no response.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Sort of foaming at the mouth, sort of spluttering,
0:09:02 > 0:09:04but there was no breath there.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Now James has to go back to rescue the second man.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14I grabbed his arm. He was very limp, sort of semi-conscious.
0:09:14 > 0:09:19As we got back onto the beach, we lifted him up the beach a little bit, clear of the water,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22and then set him down in the recovery position,
0:09:22 > 0:09:25where he proceeded to be sick
0:09:25 > 0:09:27but at that point, he was still breathing.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31Both men are breathing but not out of danger
0:09:31 > 0:09:35and suddenly reports come through there could be a third person in cardiac arrest.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38PEOPLE SHOUTING
0:09:54 > 0:09:57Coastguard volunteers continue the search for the third man,
0:09:57 > 0:10:02leaving air paramedic Alf to organise airlifting the two known casualties to hospital.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Take them further back. OK, I got it, yes.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11He needs the helicopter back urgently
0:10:11 > 0:10:14but there are still crowds of people on the beach.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Alf gets everyone organised to act as soon as the helicopter lands.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37He radios for the helicopter.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Later, as the casualties are airlifted to hospital,
0:10:56 > 0:10:58one of them takes a turn for the worse.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02My casualty required his airway supporting
0:11:02 > 0:11:05whilst en route down to the A department.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19The M27 stretches for 25 miles along the south coast.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Like most weekday mornings, at 8am it's busy
0:11:22 > 0:11:24and today, there's an emergency.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26The nearest ambulance is on its way.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28On board, technician Stacey Smith
0:11:28 > 0:11:31and emergency care assistant Jordan Gablin.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33HORN BEEPS, SIREN WHOOPS
0:11:33 > 0:11:36We've just passed the incident on the opposite side of the road.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38I can see one car up against the barrier.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41There are several resources there already - the police, the fire
0:11:41 > 0:11:44and one of our RVs as well.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Traffic is at a complete standstill.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Four vehicles have been caught up in the shunt.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52All attention is on the driver of the silver car.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55She is a 27-year-old female.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Bringing Stacey up to date is student paramedic Jade Foley,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02who stopped on her way to training.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06And instantly winded, unable to get out of the vehicle.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08I was walking towards the crash.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11The policeman was telling me to go back to my car
0:12:11 > 0:12:15and when I shouted to him that I was ambulance service,
0:12:15 > 0:12:18he beckoned me over, so I knew that something was wrong.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21It's the first time Jade has worked alone.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25And lungs are clear, SATS at 79%.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28But she's trained with senior paramedics for two years
0:12:28 > 0:12:30and seen many accidents.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Maria was complaining of quite severe back and neck pain
0:12:33 > 0:12:34and a really nasty headache.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38So I just sat with her and tried to calm her down
0:12:38 > 0:12:42because she was obviously quite upset and shocked by what had happened.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45I just tried to calm her down.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48The car was travelling at about 60mph
0:12:48 > 0:12:50when it went into the car in front.
0:12:50 > 0:12:56The priority is to get the driver out of the car as quickly and safely as possible.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02The fire crew soon have the roof off.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06The woman is complaining of considerable pain
0:13:06 > 0:13:08and Jade goes in to reassure her.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12The driver has been given an injection of morphine.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14She's also taking gas and air.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18Shane, do you want her on the scoop? Are we going to transfer her onto the scoop?
0:13:19 > 0:13:20So shall we get her onto the stretcher
0:13:20 > 0:13:23and then we'll just scoop it and lift it?
0:13:23 > 0:13:25The car has taken quite an impact
0:13:25 > 0:13:27and the woman's pain levels are high.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Emergency care practitioner Mark Ainsworth Smith is on site,
0:13:31 > 0:13:33as well as the ambulance crew.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36They'll work together to get her out.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38The back board slides in first,
0:13:38 > 0:13:42so the injured driver can be carefully lowered to a horizontal position.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46All the time, trainee Jade is by her side,
0:13:46 > 0:13:48letting her know what's happening.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Ready, brace and lift.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Finally out of the car, ambulance technician Stacey takes over.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02Hello. Maria, we're just going to get you onto yet another stretcher.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05All right? There's two pieces that come in either side of you.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08It feels a bit strange but you're perfectly safe.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11On roll. Ready, set, roll.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15OK. And back. Ready, set, back.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18ECP Mark regularly trains students like Jade
0:14:18 > 0:14:20but usually in the classroom.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Well done, Maria. You've done really, really well, OK?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25These guys were on their way to trauma training.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Wow! You don't need to go now.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30The first aid's really boring because I teach it.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33Is that where you're supposed to be?
0:14:33 > 0:14:35With the blocks taped firmly in place,
0:14:35 > 0:14:38the driver is now completely secure.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Her spine is completely immobilised. There is no risk of further injury.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46If you do feel sick, tell us straightaway, OK?
0:14:46 > 0:14:48We've given you something to stop you feeling sick
0:14:48 > 0:14:51but if you're lying like this and you start vomiting,
0:14:51 > 0:14:55that's a concern for us and you must tell us straightaway. OK.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57We'll get you in the back of the ambulance.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58It'll be much warmer in there.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09It's the end of the driver's car and her day at the office.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Her husband has been told and is meeting the ambulance at the hospital.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17She's got a good radial pulse. Yeah, yeah.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19After a quick consultation with Mark,
0:15:19 > 0:15:21they can leave for the hospital.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24Yeah, we're happy, then. Yeah, thank you.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Give us a shout if you need anything. All right, will do.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34We're just about to turn into the hospital now, all right?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36The pain relief is working.
0:15:36 > 0:15:41The woman is feeling much more comfortable, even though she's strapped to a long board.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Inside, the casualty will be x-rayed and examined fully
0:15:44 > 0:15:46to discover what injuries she's suffered.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Here's an interesting thing.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Not everybody who calls in to ask for help can speak English
0:15:57 > 0:15:59and that presents a problem.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01If Cat's not on a call... Are you all right to talk? Yeah.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04So what do you do when somebody calls in but can't speak English?
0:16:04 > 0:16:07They must be really panicked to be calling at all.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Yes, we've had several calls from people who don't speak the language.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13For instance, I had a call from a Chinese gentleman
0:16:13 > 0:16:15whose wife was in a lot of pain
0:16:15 > 0:16:18but all I could get from him was the address and the postcode.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20OK. And can you hear her in the background?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Yes, she was crying out. You could tell she was in a lot of pain.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25So this sounds like a serious call.
0:16:25 > 0:16:29Is it easy to establish what language they do speak?
0:16:29 > 0:16:34Because if they don't speak English, then you asking, "What language?" is kind of...
0:16:34 > 0:16:39It's not always easy but we do get there eventually. OK.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42So you had a pretty good idea this person was Chinese,
0:16:42 > 0:16:44even if he couldn't tell you. Yeah.
0:16:44 > 0:16:49So what do you do then? How do you go about getting that specialist knowledge and help?
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Well, we have a special phone number for this - the Language Line.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56If you come round, on the screen you can see there's different kinds of services
0:16:56 > 0:16:58available to the call-takers here.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01And this one here is Language Line.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05So you fire onto that one. Yeah and it gives us the phone number, which we would call,
0:17:05 > 0:17:09and we give them a code that lets them know it's the ambulance service calling
0:17:09 > 0:17:11and they would find an interpreter for us.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14And they can find pretty much any language? Yes, pretty much.
0:17:14 > 0:17:15And then the person comes on.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Will they just translate in one direction
0:17:18 > 0:17:20or will they stay on the line and help out?
0:17:20 > 0:17:21We do an assessment with the patient,
0:17:21 > 0:17:24so we'd have the interpreter on the line
0:17:24 > 0:17:28and they would translate the questions for us, into Chinese, in this case.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31OK. What happens if, say, the paramedics that work in here
0:17:31 > 0:17:33need to come on and give information?
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Will that person help with that? Yeah, they would give all the advice that we need to give them.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39So what happened to the Chinese lady?
0:17:39 > 0:17:42It turned out she had quite bad stomach pains
0:17:42 > 0:17:44and she was taken to hospital and treated. OK.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Reassuring that no matter what language you speak,
0:17:47 > 0:17:50you'll get understood if you call through. Yeah. Smashing, thank you.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Still to come on Real Rescues.
0:17:57 > 0:18:0040 fire-fighters battle to save a 400-year-old pub
0:18:00 > 0:18:02from a thatch fire.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06We were just having a breather when we noticed smoke had started again.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11And emergency hospital staff stand by to treat two men
0:18:11 > 0:18:14pulled from the sea unconscious and not breathing.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20All right, that'll do for a minute. Right.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22At a farm in Hampshire, a cow man is fighting
0:18:22 > 0:18:26to save the life of a heifer which bolted into a slurry pit
0:18:26 > 0:18:28as it started to give birth.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31The rescue operation has been going on for two hours.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33The heifer's been dragged out of the pit
0:18:33 > 0:18:35by animal rescue specialists
0:18:35 > 0:18:38but now Pat Wilcox knows that to save its life,
0:18:38 > 0:18:41they might have to sacrifice the calf.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45It's taken us two years to get her to that stage.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47If we lost her at that point,
0:18:47 > 0:18:51we've not only lost between 1,600 and 1,800 quid
0:18:51 > 0:18:56but we've lost all the time and effort it goes to get her there.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00And, you know, she was going to be part of our future.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03The heavily sedated heifer can't push the calf out,
0:19:03 > 0:19:06so Pat uses a mechanical device.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09With the pulling power of five men,
0:19:09 > 0:19:11it takes all of his experience to use it safely.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15We're checking all the time that we're not pulling too tight
0:19:15 > 0:19:18but at the same time, we're trying to do everything as quickly as we can
0:19:18 > 0:19:22because we've got a heifer that's flat out on the floor
0:19:22 > 0:19:25that really needs to be in a box on some straw
0:19:25 > 0:19:27and being looked after properly.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31The rescue is now all about saving the heifer.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35No-one believes a half-born calf can survive this ordeal.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39They really want to get this calf out of this cow really quickly.
0:19:39 > 0:19:44Dead or alive, it's got to come out to enable the cow to survive.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46To get the calf and win that one would have been a bonus.
0:20:05 > 0:20:11We knew it was going to be a busy few days. That's still going. That's still going.
0:20:11 > 0:20:16Then suddenly, something happens that takes everyone by surprise.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Come on. It's alive!
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Yeah, she's alive.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24It looks brutal, but to get this calf to breathe on its own,
0:20:24 > 0:20:27they need to dislodge any fluid in its lungs.
0:20:27 > 0:20:28Got to survive now, hasn't it?
0:20:30 > 0:20:31Go on.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37You've never had such an audience.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41It's going. Then it happens. It's going. Yeah!
0:20:41 > 0:20:43It takes its first breath. Oh, excellent.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47Excellent. That's a miracle. It is a miracle. Yes.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50I felt emotionally relieved.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53After having worked with cattle all my life,
0:20:53 > 0:20:57it really did sort of pull at me a little bit.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01So, yeah.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11A heifer calf means it will live out its life on the farm
0:21:11 > 0:21:13as part of the milking herd.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Now all attention turns to the mother.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18The sedation will wear off any minute.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21They need to get her somewhere familiar and comfortable.
0:21:23 > 0:21:28It may be undignified but it's the safest and quickest way to move the animal.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36Back in the barn, the heifer is given an antidote to counter the effects of the sedative.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Just because she's dangerous? Yeah, oh, yeah.
0:21:43 > 0:21:4715 minutes later and the new mother is back on its feet.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51The fire-fighters on scene were really quite emotional at that stage.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55There were one or two there with the odd tear in their eye
0:21:55 > 0:21:58and I thought, "Yeah, we've pulled this one off by sheer luck."
0:21:59 > 0:22:04They're fantastic guys. They've got the kit, they've got everything
0:22:04 > 0:22:06that was needed to perform the rescue
0:22:06 > 0:22:08and we couldn't have done it without them.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11And when it comes to naming the newborn,
0:22:11 > 0:22:13inspiration came from the fire-fighter in charge of the operation - Anton.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15inspiration came from the fire-fighter in charge of the operation - Anton.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Initially they were going to call it Antoinette,
0:22:18 > 0:22:20which I thought was hysterical,
0:22:20 > 0:22:23but I understand they're probably going to call it Lucky,
0:22:23 > 0:22:24and quite rightly.
0:22:28 > 0:22:33Later, Lucky and mum continue to amaze their rescuers.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35We're used to dramas on the farm
0:22:35 > 0:22:38and we try and handle it in as calm a way as we can.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46This area of the room is where 111 calls are answered.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49They recently had a call from a mother whose baby was coughing.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51It wasn't serious, which is why she dialled 111,
0:22:51 > 0:22:53but she was worried about the child.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57After a little while on the phone, though, that child then started to choke,
0:22:57 > 0:23:02at which point a clinician is needed to explain how best to deal with chocking.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05I haven't seen before how to deal with that,
0:23:05 > 0:23:08so Mark's come along with the mannequin of the baby to explain.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10When you get involved in a conversation like that
0:23:10 > 0:23:14and the child is choking, how can you clear the airways of the baby?
0:23:14 > 0:23:18OK, as long as the baby is fighting for breath, is still breathing,
0:23:18 > 0:23:22the easiest is the way we do it. This is the way we tell everyone to do it.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26Pop the baby on your forearm like this, supporting the head with your hand
0:23:26 > 0:23:29to make sure it's nice and safe - you don't want to drop it.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33And then you give five sharp back slaps with the hard part of your hand
0:23:33 > 0:23:34and it's as hard as this.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37FIRM THUDDING
0:23:38 > 0:23:42Now, if that clears it, fine. If not, turn the baby over...
0:23:42 > 0:23:44I'm surprised how firm that was, actually.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48That really was quite... Yeah, it's got to be firm to clear the blockage
0:23:48 > 0:23:51because we need to clear the blockage - it's an emergency situation now.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54We want the airway clear. The baby won't cope without it at all.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Turn the baby on the back if it's still struggling for breath
0:23:57 > 0:24:02and using two fingers, between the nipples, you press down five sharp times again.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10And you continue that routine until the blockage has come out
0:24:10 > 0:24:13or until an ambulance crew turns up or help turns up.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Now, obviously, although the mother dialled 111,
0:24:16 > 0:24:18this has obviously become very serious.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20As soon as the word choking is used...
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Yeah, a life-threatening situation. The ambulance is dispatched and you are brought in as a clinician.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27At this point, the mum said she thought the baby was turning blue.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30That's a different kettle of fish again, isn't it? Absolutely.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32We would give her advice on how to do CPR,
0:24:32 > 0:24:34which is basically chest compressions.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37And that's different for a baby than it is for an adult? Yeah.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41The problem with doing CPR on babies is there's a lot of soft tissues.
0:24:41 > 0:24:46You've got to be careful about giving soft tissue injuries around the kidneys and stomach,
0:24:46 > 0:24:47so, yeah, it's a different procedure.
0:24:47 > 0:24:52We'll demonstrate this but bear in mind this is something that must only be used
0:24:52 > 0:24:54if you're given instruction by an expert on what to do. Absolutely.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57It's not something you should attempt on your own.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00But to get an idea... This is what we'd ask people to do
0:25:00 > 0:25:03that have no experience and have not been trained in any way. OK.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06So what we're going to do, lie baby on a hard surface.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09You need to pop a little towel or a tea towel between the shoulder blades
0:25:09 > 0:25:12because what you need is that completely level along there
0:25:12 > 0:25:15because the baby's physiological build is different than an adult.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19And then again, between the nipples,
0:25:19 > 0:25:22you do about 100 to 120 compressions a minute.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26So one and two and three and four and one and two and three and four
0:25:26 > 0:25:28and one and two and three and four.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30And you keep doing that until the ambulance crew turns up.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33It's very fast. It's got to be fast.
0:25:33 > 0:25:38What we're trying to do now is to get all the blood perfusion round to parts of the body,
0:25:38 > 0:25:40and most important is the brain.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45And babies' hearts do seem to beat very fast - 100 to 120 beats per minute.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47It's 100 to 120 a minute
0:25:47 > 0:25:50and you'd keep doing that until assistance turns up.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51OK, so there you go.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54If the baby's choking, we've given you an idea of how to clear that choking
0:25:54 > 0:26:00but you always dial 999 and a clinician like Mark or someone like Mark will be here
0:26:00 > 0:26:01to talk you through it.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04This isn't something that you should just go for yourself.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08You need medical advice but hopefully that might be of some use in the future.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Mark, thank you very much. Thank you.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20A major rescue operation is underway at West Wittering beach in Sussex.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Two men have been dragged from the sea, moments from drowning.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27The coastguard helicopter is preparing an emergency airlift to hospital.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Both men are in a critical condition.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33They each need a paramedic to travel with them.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54A third casualty has now been found.
0:26:54 > 0:26:59He's not in cardiac arrest but is on his way to hospital by ambulance.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Now the beach is clear, the helicopter comes in to land.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17Alf wastes no time as he heads off to get the stretcher for the first casualty.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23But the man is still vomiting.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39It's too unsafe for him to travel on his back.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45They work quickly to get him onto the stretcher.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48They're keeping him in the recovery position.
0:27:55 > 0:27:56Ready?
0:27:58 > 0:28:01The first casualty, the second to be pulled out of the water,
0:28:01 > 0:28:03is loaded onto the helicopter.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12The second follows shortly after.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17There is little room to look after these two very sick patients.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20They're both connected to life support equipment.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28During the transit, I was looking after the second casualty,
0:28:28 > 0:28:30who wasn't very well.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32He was breathing very shallowly
0:28:32 > 0:28:34and at times I had to assist the breathing
0:28:34 > 0:28:36using an apparatus called a bag and mask.
0:28:36 > 0:28:41The second casualty was being looked after by the ambulance paramedic.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44Again, in very similar condition.
0:28:44 > 0:28:49The two men need to be continually monitored throughout the five-minute flight to hospital.
0:28:49 > 0:28:53It's demanding work, especially for paramedic Nicola,
0:28:53 > 0:28:55who's working in an unfamiliar environment.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02The ambulance paramedic did a fantastic job
0:29:02 > 0:29:04because, for me in the back of the aircraft, it's where I work,
0:29:04 > 0:29:06it's my office, if you like.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09For the ambulance paramedic to do such a fantastic job
0:29:09 > 0:29:12in the back of the aircraft was tremendous
0:29:12 > 0:29:14and I'd say well done to her.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20The emergency department at Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth
0:29:20 > 0:29:23are ready and waiting as the helicopter touches down.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32The hospital staff will take both casualties straight into resus.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40But one man's had to come off his board
0:29:40 > 0:29:42and getting him out isn't straightforward.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44Can we get these things out the way?
0:29:44 > 0:29:48But Nicola and Alf quickly manoeuvre him back onto the board
0:29:48 > 0:29:50and out of the helicopter.
0:29:54 > 0:29:59Alf deals with his patient and both men are wheeled to resus.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02But Alf's patient is deteriorating.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05After landing on the helipad at QA Hospital,
0:30:05 > 0:30:11my casualty required his airway supporting whilst en route down to the A department.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17Alf continues to monitor his airways until handing over to staff
0:30:17 > 0:30:19in resus.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25The man is now going to get the best possible care
0:30:25 > 0:30:28but his chances of survival are still in the balance.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Later, more details of the men's condition.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41It's mid afternoon. A 999 call comes through to the control room
0:30:41 > 0:30:43at Cheshire fire and rescue.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Barmaid Ann has raised the alarm.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58It's a bank holiday Monday and the pub is packed.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09While Ann is on the phone to the emergency services,
0:31:09 > 0:31:12landlady Laura is trying to get through.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14It was a bank holiday Monday, April Fool's Day,
0:31:14 > 0:31:19and I'd called here on the landline to see how busy they were,
0:31:19 > 0:31:21to see if they needed me back straightaway.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24Ann Yates, who was on the bar for me, said,
0:31:24 > 0:31:26"You need to come back, the pub's on fire."
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Every year on April Fool's Day
0:31:29 > 0:31:32somebody tells you that your thatched building is on fire.
0:31:32 > 0:31:36So my first initial thought was, because I was two minutes away from here,
0:31:36 > 0:31:40is to get back here and shout at whoever's made it up.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46Laura is heading to the pub while another 999 call comes in.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48This fire is for real.
0:32:10 > 0:32:11'Thanks. Bye-bye.'
0:32:11 > 0:32:15A total of 40 fire-fighters from seven stations are needed.
0:32:15 > 0:32:19As one team pour water onto the fire around the chimney stack,
0:32:19 > 0:32:22another team make a firebreak in the thatch.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24It was a well-developed fire
0:32:24 > 0:32:27and there were quite a lot of crews in attendance already
0:32:27 > 0:32:31and there was members of the public stood nearby.
0:32:31 > 0:32:35The next job is removing all the burning and smouldering thatch.
0:32:35 > 0:32:39Thatch is obviously designed to repel water because it's part of a roof.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42The only way to stop the fire spreading is
0:32:42 > 0:32:44to remove all the thatch.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46The only way to get it off the roof
0:32:46 > 0:32:49is to physically have people working off ladders,
0:32:49 > 0:32:52actually dragging it off with implements we call stack jacks,
0:32:52 > 0:32:55their bare hands, axes,
0:32:55 > 0:32:58otherwise the fire will spread either through it or underneath it
0:32:58 > 0:33:00and whilst you're still removing it,
0:33:00 > 0:33:02the fire will be starting to burn past you
0:33:02 > 0:33:05and on parts of the roof that aren't affected.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09At seven in the evening, after three hours of hard work,
0:33:09 > 0:33:11the fire-fighters are confident they've put it out.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Three hours into the incident,
0:33:14 > 0:33:16there was no smoke showing, there was no flames.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19We'd taken most of the thatch off half the building
0:33:19 > 0:33:20and we were having a breather
0:33:20 > 0:33:24when we noticed smoke had started again at the hip joint of the other part of the roof,
0:33:24 > 0:33:26so we scrambled to make sure that was out.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29It just shows you the nature of thatch fires.
0:33:29 > 0:33:33You can never be completely sure they're out
0:33:33 > 0:33:35until you've absolutely uncovered everything.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37Crews stayed on, dampening down the thatch,
0:33:37 > 0:33:40supported throughout by the local community.
0:33:40 > 0:33:44They were amazing. The farmers were here until 1am,
0:33:44 > 0:33:47moving with a loader all the thatch that was on the road.
0:33:47 > 0:33:52There were people from the church bringing cakes and soup for the fire brigade.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55People that live in the village were coming to help that night.
0:33:55 > 0:34:00The local community police officer finished his shift,
0:34:00 > 0:34:02came back with his wife to help.
0:34:02 > 0:34:03It was just amazing.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07With most of the rescue efforts focused on fighting the fire,
0:34:07 > 0:34:12a specialist salvage team helped Laura get ancient valuables out of the pub.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14This building's almost 400 years old
0:34:14 > 0:34:18and there's things that will never be replaced if they're removed or burnt.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22So they were amazing and they got out as many as they could.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25They were taking pictures off the walls.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27We was conscious from a very early stage
0:34:27 > 0:34:31that the nature and the age of the pub were very important.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33It's also an important focal point to the local community
0:34:33 > 0:34:37and sometimes during an incident,
0:34:37 > 0:34:40you have to look past actually resolving the incident
0:34:40 > 0:34:44because the first actions are to save life and protect property.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48But you've also got to consider the impact of any fire on the community.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Half a Guinness? Right.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52It means a lot to a lot of people,
0:34:52 > 0:34:56so it's not just me and my husband and family and staff
0:34:56 > 0:35:00that were upset from the fire - it's everybody else.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02They've had their weddings, their christenings,
0:35:02 > 0:35:05everything here, over 40, 50, 60 years.
0:35:05 > 0:35:09It took four months to restore this 400-year-old building
0:35:09 > 0:35:10to its former glory.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15The fire was thought to have been caused
0:35:15 > 0:35:17by embers from the ancient fireplaces.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19They've had to be replaced
0:35:19 > 0:35:22but their character has been preserved.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24It's a grade two star listed building,
0:35:24 > 0:35:27so it needed to be perfect, as perfect as it was,
0:35:27 > 0:35:31so it needed not to be apparent that there'd been a problem inside.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33It had to look as it did before.
0:35:43 > 0:35:456.30 in the morning.
0:35:45 > 0:35:50Jade Foley, now a fully qualified paramedic, is on duty with Lindsey Thompson.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52They're off to the first call of the day.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58A 93-year-old man has been suffering all night with chest pains.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01When the crew arrive, Leonard is not complaining.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05And you've got no pain any more, Len? Not at the moment.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07It's er... No. It's completely gone.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11It's quite... It was more like a scorching pain than anything else.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15Yeah? Quite uncomfortable. Very uncomfortable, yeah.
0:36:15 > 0:36:22And during the night, I used the puffer, I suppose, four times at least. OK.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26Which I hadn't used for months. Yeah.
0:36:26 > 0:36:30He's been using a prescription spray and the pain is easing.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34Did you take any pain relief last night or just the spray?
0:36:34 > 0:36:37The puffer... Yeah. ..and er... Yeah.
0:36:37 > 0:36:41Erm... paracetamol. OK.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43The GTN spray works by dilating the arteries,
0:36:43 > 0:36:46making it easier for the heart to work.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Was it just one you took or two? Two. Good. OK.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Even though the pain's gone now,
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Leonard could still be having a heart attack.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57It's impossible to tell without an ECG.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59Couple of bumps, Len.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02They need to get Leonard to hospital as quickly as possible.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04Daughter Barbara is going with him for support.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11Once Leonard's inside the ambulance, they can check out his vital signs.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15All right if we put some sticky dots on your chest, Len?
0:37:15 > 0:37:18You what, my dear? To have a look at your heart. Yeah, OK.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25The ECG immediately shows up irregularities in his heart.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31The chest pain could have been angina,
0:37:31 > 0:37:34a narrowing of the vessels around the heart.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37You can't just assume that he'll be OK, can you?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39No, no. It's always better to have it checked out.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Once in hospital, they'll do blood tests,
0:37:42 > 0:37:45as well as more ECGs to get to the bottom of what's happening to Leonard's heart.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52Jade and Lindsey can get back on the road
0:37:52 > 0:37:56and by chance, their next shout is to a 93-year-old with chest pains.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00The call's come from a holiday park on Hayling Island,
0:38:00 > 0:38:04where William is having a week by the sea.
0:38:04 > 0:38:07It's William, is it? It is, yes. Right, William.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Tell us a bit about what's been happening.
0:38:09 > 0:38:13It's the pain in his chest that's causing concern.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Well, the pain when I'm trying to get things up.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18I get a pain right in here, where my heart is.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Right, how long has this been going on for?
0:38:20 > 0:38:23It's only about a week, I think, yeah. Only?!
0:38:23 > 0:38:25William's playing it down
0:38:25 > 0:38:28but they have to take all chest pains seriously.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32Point to where the pain goes. Well, it's there now. In here.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35Not much, though. I try to be macho.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38William's got a history of high blood pressure,
0:38:38 > 0:38:41another cause for concern,
0:38:41 > 0:38:44but he's reluctant to disrupt his holiday.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46I don't want to go into hospital on my holiday.
0:38:46 > 0:38:51Are you diabetic? No, I'm not. I'm very lucky, there.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53Bill's away with his mate Fred.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55They're related through their children's marriage.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59We're father-in-laws to each other's... Father-in-laws, yeah, so...
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Although he's never had any problems with his heart before,
0:39:02 > 0:39:04they need to do an ECG in the ambulance
0:39:04 > 0:39:06and make sure there's nothing sinister going on.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09Think you're up to walking out there?
0:39:09 > 0:39:11Oh, yes. Or shall we get you a chair?
0:39:11 > 0:39:14No, no, I can walk. It's fine. We'll get you a chair.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17They're not taking any chances.
0:39:18 > 0:39:22So you live by the Dartford Tunnel? Yeah, about four miles away.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24So you haven't got that pain at the moment? No.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27Nothing. Everything's marvellous.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30William's pain keeps coming and going.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33He had an ECG about three months ago.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36So they didn't find anything the last time they did one of these?
0:39:36 > 0:39:41Bill, have you ever been told that you have an irregular heart rate?
0:39:41 > 0:39:43No.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47The ECG confirms that William needs a more thorough examination.
0:39:47 > 0:39:51Bill, I know you're not going to like what I'm going to say.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55No, go on and say it. I don't mind. I'm past worrying about anything.
0:39:55 > 0:39:59Because you've got a bit of an irregular heart rate
0:39:59 > 0:40:00showing on there,
0:40:00 > 0:40:05and you've got no heart problems, no history of heart problems at all. No, I haven't.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08So obviously, we don't know that that's normal for you.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11It might well be but if you haven't been told that,
0:40:11 > 0:40:14and we don't know, we need to get it checked out, really.
0:40:14 > 0:40:18So it's going to be a little trip up to the hospital to get them to have a look at you.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20Today? Mm, yeah.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22It's the last thing he wants to hear.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26Fred's going to keep him company. Anything for a ride.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29And with any luck, he'll soon be out of hospital
0:40:29 > 0:40:31to enjoy the rest of his holiday.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48The two men who were airlifted to hospital
0:40:48 > 0:40:50after they were rescued from the sea at West Wittering
0:40:50 > 0:40:52have both made a good recovery.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54One of the men was discharged the same day
0:40:54 > 0:40:58but the second man was in intensive care for just under a week.
0:40:58 > 0:41:03He didn't regain consciousness until four days after the accident.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06The third man who was taken to hospital by ambulance
0:41:06 > 0:41:09suffered no ill effects and was allowed home the same day.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15The driver who had to be cut out of her car
0:41:15 > 0:41:17after a crash on the M27 motorway
0:41:17 > 0:41:20suffered whiplash and serious internal bruising.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22She was off work for more than a week.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Paramedic Jade Foley was on her way to work
0:41:26 > 0:41:28when she came across the accident.
0:41:28 > 0:41:32Still a student at the time, this was something of a first for Jade.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36It was the first time I'd ever been at an accident like that by myself
0:41:36 > 0:41:38without anyone standing behind me,
0:41:38 > 0:41:41telling me that I was doing something right or something wrong.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44That was the first time that I was treating somebody
0:41:44 > 0:41:47for a car crash without having anybody else clinical...
0:41:47 > 0:41:50I was the clinical person on scene.
0:41:50 > 0:41:51I was the one who was making decisions.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56And Jade's two older patients are both at home and doing well.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58Len's feeling much better
0:41:58 > 0:42:01and although Bill's undergoing tests to find out what's wrong,
0:42:01 > 0:42:04he simply puts it down to old age.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Four weeks on, and this heifer calf and its mother are showing
0:42:10 > 0:42:12no ill effects after their dramatic rescue.
0:42:12 > 0:42:16In fact, they're barely recognisable.
0:42:16 > 0:42:21The unborn and its mother were saved from drowning in six feet of slurry.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23No-one was expecting the calf to live.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27Since then, both animals have made a full recovery.
0:42:27 > 0:42:30Once the calf was born and we'd put her in a box,
0:42:30 > 0:42:33we made sure they paired up,
0:42:33 > 0:42:35made sure that the calf got its colostrum
0:42:35 > 0:42:40and 24 hours later, she was coming through the parlour and milking as normal
0:42:40 > 0:42:41with no ill effects.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43We're used to dramas on the farm
0:42:43 > 0:42:47and we try and handle it in as calm a way as we can.
0:42:49 > 0:42:53Like her mother, the heifer calf, Lucky, will live out her life on the farm.
0:42:59 > 0:43:03I hope you found the rescue of the cow and her calf moo-ving.
0:43:04 > 0:43:08That's it for today's Real Rescues. See you next time.
