Michael Buerk presents more stories of heroism and bravery, reconstructed by the emergency services, actors and those involved in the actual rescues. Tonight, a diving accident leaves a young woman at risk from the bends, and forces a helicopter to fly under the Tamar Bridge to get her to safety; the teenage boy speared in a freak accident on a school sports field; and the cyclist who needed 718 pints of blood after he was run over by a lorry. Plus a look at the lifesaving work of a kidney transplant coordinator.
