Episode 1

Following the day-to-day operations of a mobile crane company as it moves everything from precious works of art to enormous wind turbines. The first episode looks at the staff and machines challenged with carrying out the biggest lifts of all, including the dismantling of the aquatics centre at the former Olympic Park in Stratford, east London. Life on the road often means sleeping and eating in vans, conditions that cause crane driver Tristam to complain to management - while new recruit Wayne struggles to deal with life 200 miles away from his family.
