Episode 2
The container terminal finally welcomes their new semi-automated cranes, H&W workers discover their fate and Belfast Harbour Police are on patrol as Halloween descends on Belfast.
We catch up with crane operator Ryan on a windy day at the container terminal. When the winds are too strong, the cranes must cease operation and Ryan can鈥檛 do anything but wait. The coxswains and pilots have no other choice but to face the weather. Pilot Liam has steered the vessel Afalina out to open water, but he must get back to land by climbing onto coxswain Paul鈥檚 pilot boat 鈥� while both vessels are still moving!
Surprisingly, there鈥檚 a nature reserve in the heart of the harbour. We meet Chris at Belfast鈥檚 Window on Wildlife, who needs to maintain the site to encourage the harbour birds to spend their days there.
Back at the container terminal we see the arrival of new, state-of-the-art semi-automated cranes from China. They mark a new future for the workers, who鈥檒l be able to operate the cranes from an office.
After seeing a group of volunteers at Lagan Search and Rescue leap into action for a training exercise, we see them on high alert for real at the annual Halloween monster mash, along with the harbour police. Luckily the night goes off without a hitch, and our heroes get to enjoy the fireworks at the end of the evening.
