BBC ALBA - Rathad na Deighe/Ice Road Rescuers, Episode 5

Tha Thord a chuideachadh le bàta a th' air a dhol fodha. Thord rescues a sunken boat.

Documentary series following Norwegian towing teams. In this episode, Thord and Bjorn go to rescue a sunken boat in a fjord in southern Norway.

Gach bliadhna, tha sneachd a' gheamhraidh san Nirribhidh a' dèanamh rathaidean nam beanntan cunnartach le reothadh, a' cur nan ceudan de làraidhean mòra far an rathaid. Tha Rathad na Deighe a' leantainn nan gaisgeach Lochlannach seo a' dol a-mach gus cobhair a thoirt do na làraidhean airson am faighinn air ais air an rathad.

Tha Thord Paulsen agus a chriutha ann an Odda agus Bjorn Lægreid, a tha ag obair na aonar ann an Eidfjord a' farpais gus tiotal an luchd-sàbhalaidh rathaid as fheàrr a chosnadh. Ann an ceann a deas Nirribhidh, o chionn 's nach eil sneachd air na rathaidean, tha Thord agus Bjorn a' dol a chuideachadh le bàta a th' air a dhol fodha sa chaolas.

Sa cheann a tuath, tha làraidh Gearmailteach a tha a' giùlain chàraichean air a dhol far an rathaid agus tha Frank a' dol a-mach a chuideachadh. Cuideachd, tha Thord agus a sgioba a' falbh gus cobhair a thoirt do dhràibhear a th' air a dhol far an rathaid sa cheann a deas.

It happens every year. The harsh Norwegian winter turns mountain roads into bob sleigh tracks, and forces hundreds of 50-tonne trucks off the road. Ice Road Rescuers follows the daredevil Norwegian towing teams who set out to rescue these trucks and trailers on the icy mountains and get them back on track. Enter Thord Paulsen and his crew in Odda, and lone wolf Bjorn Laegreid in neighbouring Eidfjord, both competing to be the best road rescuer.

With the lack on snow on the roads, in the south of Norway, tow rescuers Thord and Bjorn go to rescue a sunken boat in the fjord. In the north, a German truck driver transporting new cars, has slid off the road and Frank has to come to the rescue. Also, a truck driver goes off the road in the south, and Thord and his crew have to save the day.

Series following Norwegian towing teams as they rescue trucks and trailers in the icy mountains.
