Coastguard Coastguard: Search & Rescue SOS

An 85-year-old woman hangs on for dear life as she's battered by waves in north Wales.

A distress call comes in from the uninhabitable granite islet Rockall, a lone dog on a cliff in Wales causes concern, and there are people stranded in a Cornish blow hole.

A helicopter crew from Newquay must fly 60 miles into the English Channel to an incident aboard a cruise liner, where a passenger is having a suspected stroke and must be winched off the ship.

Helicopter Rescue 936 from Caernarfon are called out when a walker has a serious laceration to his head, and the paramedic must be winched down in tricky circumstances.
