Dangerous Cargo
The Coastguards share Spurn Point with the Humber Lifeboat. It is their task to co-ordinate all search and rescue missions - and to launch the lifeboat when necessary. But part of their job is to guard the shoreline. One weekend last winter, some containers of toxic chemicals were washed up on the beaches around Spurn. This set in motion a train of events that was to keep the Humber Coastguard very. busy for the next 48 hours. Written and narrated by Brian Thompson
