The Battle for the Channel (S15E28)
S15E28
This year, over 17,000 migrants have made their way to the UK by traversing the English Channel in small boats, more than double the figure from the previous year. Despite strong rhetoric from both UK and French officials, the influx continues to grow. What makes it so challenging for these two wealthy nations to manage crossings in such a heavily trafficked shipping lane? Lucy Williamson joins the police on patrol, aiming to curb the trend, and encounters migrants who are resolutely trying to evade capture.
