The men and women of the 110 Lifeguard Clubs will be patrolling Britain's beaches this summer and preventing holidays turning into tragedies. Last year alone more than 2,000 people were saved from drowning in resorts as far afield as Barn-staple and East Kilbride. The teams are manned by volunteers and the youngest cadets are 13 years old. Simon joins the boys and girls from Poole and Bournemouth who will be competing in the National Lifeguard Championships later this year, and gets thrown in at the deep end with the torpedo buoy relay race.

'Bumper' Morgan is a tough Los Angeles cop with a reputation for unorthodox working methods. After 20 years patrolling the city he believes that 'all the good busts come from walking, talking and being on the beat'. Increasingly he finds himself at odds with his superiors and with some young 'liberals' who resent his uniform. 'Bumper' decides to quit after solving one more important case ...
