Out in the English Channel, there are reports of a dangerously overcrowded small boat in the shipping lanes. As the Dungeness crew head to the location, they find that there are 62 casualties - and the boat they’re crowded into is now breaking up.

In North Berwick, a call comes in from a woman whose husband has been blown out to sea on a kayak that has capsized.
