Ray Mears continues his travels to inhospitable places.

RAF crews can find themselves in action almost anywhere in the world, and, if they are shot down behind enemy lines, their survival may depend on detailed knowledge of how to survive in environmental extremes - including desert, jungle, forest, the Arctic or even at sea.

Mears joins 20 airmen and women as they undergo the RAF's survival training course. He spends a week living rough in shelters on Dartmoor, where he traps squirrels and birds, lights fires and cooks what he catches. Adding to the discomfort, the group are then sent out on the run for three days and nights with a hunting party on their trail.

He is an economic migrant who wants a job in the EU so that he can provide a better life for his family back home. Dutch farmer Henke is also an economic migrant, but he wants to leave the Netherlands and buy a farm in Poland, where the land is cheaper and he would be free of the EU's agricultural restrictions. This film examines each man's reasons for his course of action.
