Common Mistakes to Avoid When Using Tower Scaffolding

Not using the right equipment

One of the most common mistakes when using tower scaffolding is not using the right equipment. You should always use equipment that is designed specifically for tower scaffolding, and you should never try to modify the equipment or use it for anything other than its intended purpose. Using the wrong equipment can result in instability, which can lead to falls and other accidents

2. Not following safety guidelines

Safety guidelines are put in place for a reason, and it's important to follow them when using tower scaffolding. This includes wearing the proper safety gear, such as hard hats, safety glasses, and harnesses. You should also be aware of weight limits and not overload the scaffolding. Additionally, you should make sure that the scaffolding is properly secured and stable before using it.

3. Ignoring weather conditions

Another common mistake is ignoring weather conditions when using tower scaffolding. You should never use scaffolding during strong winds, heavy rain, or snow. These conditions can make the scaffolding unstable and increase the risk of accidents. You should also avoid using scaffolding on uneven or unstable ground, as this can cause it to tip over.

4. Improper assembly

Improper assembly of tower scaffolding is a common mistake that can result in accidents. You should always follow the manufacturer's instructions when assembling the scaffolding, and you should never attempt to assemble it without the proper tools or equipment. Additionally, you should make sure that all of the components are secure and in the correct position before using the scaffolding.

5. Lack of training

Another common mistake when using tower scaffolding is a lack of training. You should never attempt to use scaffolding if you haven't been properly trained on how to do so. This includes understanding how to assemble and disassemble the scaffolding, how to safely use it, and how to recognize potential hazards. Lack of training can lead to accidents and injuries, and it's important to take the time to learn how to use scaffolding properly.

6. Failure to inspect the scaffolding

Before using tower scaffolding, you should always inspect it for damage or wear and tear. This includes checking the components for cracks, rust, or other signs of damage. You should also inspect the scaffolding for stability and make sure that all of the components are in good working order. Failure to inspect the scaffolding can result in accidents and injuries.

7. Improper use of braces and ties

Braces and ties are an important part of tower scaffolding, as they help to provide stability and prevent the scaffolding from tipping over. However, improper use of braces and ties can actually make the scaffolding less stable. You should always follow the manufacturer's instructions when using braces and ties, and you should never try to modify them or use them for anything other than their intended purpose.

Conclusion

Tower scaffolding is an essential tool for many construction workers, but it's important to use it correctly to avoid accidents and injuries. By avoiding these common mistakes, you can ensure that your scaffolding is safe and stable, and that you can work on it with confidence. Remember to always follow safety guidelines, inspect the scaffolding before use, and use the right equipment for the job.

Tell us about fitzgerald air!

hi yay!! i get to talk about fitzgerald muahahaha

so fitzgerald air (temporary name) is set in an alternate 1920s london in which an immortality-obsessed airship magnate competes with a fanatical cult to awake an ancient, powerful pantheon from where they lie dormant beneath a monolith in the centre of westminster. yeah. such a slay

it's centered around unemployed engineer elias digby, who has finally been released from the grip of his family; an airship pilot named andrew spencer who is on the run after discovering a dark secret at the heart of the famous company fitzgerald air, which has a monopoly on airships and is headed by sir hugh fitzgerald, who is incredibly rich and influential; nora atkins, a wealthy and glamorous heiress who also happens to be a mathematical genius; adrien bennet, the owner of a motor car company called merlin motors who are attempting to improve the design of the airplane so it can become a rival to fitzgerald's airships.

after stumbling upon the scene of a seemingly sacrificial murder, elias, who is bored and smart and has nothing better to do, starts to investigate, and gradually uncovers a secret and terrifying cult who worship a mysterious, ancient being.

meanwhile andrew, on the run from fitzgerald's hitmen, hides out with his close friend nora (because she owns two whole mansions) while attempting to decipher some strange blueprints he stole from fitzgerald after a fellow employee's death, as well as a map, centered around westminster monolith (where big ben is now) with what seem to be ley lines stretching out around it.

eventually the three join up, and adrien bennet enlists their help to bring the two organisations down and stop them before they've awakened this sinister eldritch entity, which could endanger the fate of humanity

and also elias helps adrien design a new and improved plane which is cool

it's not the most developed idea as of now but i'm kind of obsessed with it <3

elias digby – sarcastic, smart, talented engineer, SO traumatised, can quote shakespeare any day, internally screaming every time andrew or adrien so much as looks at him (he has a type)

andrew spencer – THE bisexual, flirt, literally has never taken anything seriously in his life (not true he loves everyone around him very fiercely), reckless, loves flying as in he can't live without it, for someone who seems so confident and sure of himself he sure blushes a lot whenever he makes eye contact elias......

nora atkins – fashion icon, mathematical genius, somehow manages to keep andrew in check (how does she do it), actually SHE'S the bisexual of all time and i'm obsessed with her, she owns a motorbike which is hot

adrien bennet – a bit similar to andrew but with more mad scientist vibes, he's also a very charismatic leader and just generally really good with people and makes friends easily

and here's the opening paragraph because it's one of my fav things i've ever written:

That morning, London had awoken to a great downpour, the first storm after a long, dry summer, but it was evening now and its inhabitants were grumbling about the weather as if they were well into autumn and had been wearing their raincoats for weeks, trudging along rain-soaked pavements and dodging puddles with the ill-tempered resignation of a country famous for its rain. The walkers’ umbrellas groaned and sagged beneath the water that tumbled from the sheet of grey above, and they cast envious glances at the occasional passing motor car. The airships trundling high over the grimy streets suffered a similar fate: the water washed over their sloped tops and surged down their furrowed sides, collecting in gutters and gurgling down rickety pipes or simply streaming down and onto the people below. An airship hung heavy in the sky above one construction site, shielding it from the pouring rain like a great, ungainly umbrella, and a young man stood a little way from the ramshackle scaffolding, a dark blue bicycle propped up against him as he rummaged around in his pockets. He was lean and serious and his eyes sparkled with intelligence, though his face was a little pinched and his chin rather sharp; his black hair was sopping wet and flattened to his forehead, sending a steady stream of water down his nose. He payed it no mind.

[mariacallous]

David Wakeling, head of London-based law firm Allen & Overy's markets innovation group, first came across law-focused generative AI tool Harvey in September 2022. He approached OpenAI, the system’s developer, to run a small experiment. A handful of his firm’s lawyers would use the system to answer simple questions about the law, draft documents, and take first passes at messages to clients. 

The trial started small, Wakeling says, but soon ballooned. Around 3,500 workers across the company’s 43 offices ended up using the tool, asking it around 40,000 queries in total. The law firm has now entered into a partnership to use the AI tool more widely across the company, though Wakeling declined to say how much the agreement was worth. According to Harvey, one in four at Allen & Overy’s team of lawyers now uses the AI platform every day, with 80 percent using it once a month or more. Other large law firms are starting to adopt the platform too, the company says.

The rise of AI and its potential to disrupt the legal industry has been forecast multiple times before. But the rise of the latest wave of generative AI tools, with ChatGPT at its forefront, has those within the industry more convinced than ever. 

“I think it is the beginning of a paradigm shift,” says Wakeling. “I think this technology is very suitable for the legal industry.”

Generative AI is having a cultural and commercial moment, being touted as the future of search, sparking legal disputes over copyright, and causing panic in schools and universities. 

The technology, which uses large datasets to learn to generate pictures or text that appear natural, could be a good fit for the legal industry, which relies heavily on standardized documents and precedents.

“Legal applications such as contract, conveyancing, or license generation are actually a relatively safe area in which to employ ChatGPT and its cousins,” says Lilian Edwards, professor of law, innovation, and society at Newcastle University. “Automated legal document generation has been a growth area for decades, even in rule-based tech days, because law firms can draw on large amounts of highly standardized templates and precedent banks to scaffold document generation, making the results far more predictable than with most free text outputs.” 

But the problems with current generations of generative AI have already started to show. Most significantly, their tendency to confidently make things up—or “hallucinate.” That is problematic enough in search, but in the law, the difference between success and failure can be serious, and costly.

Over email, Gabriel Pereyra, Harvey’s founder and CEO, says that the AI has a number of systems in place to prevent and detect hallucinations. “Our systems are finetuned for legal use cases on massive legal datasets which greatly reduces hallucinations compared to existing systems,” he says.

Even so, Harvey has gotten things wrong, says Wakeling—which is why Allen & Overy has a careful risk management program around the technology. 

“We’ve got to provide the highest level of professional services,” Wakeling says. “We can’t have hallucinations contaminating legal advice.” Users who log in to Allen & Overy’s Harvey portal are confronted by a list of rules for using the tool. The most important, to Wakeling’s mind? “You must validate everything coming out of the system. You have to check everything.”

Wakeling has been particularly impressed with Harvey’s prowess at translation. It’s strong at mainstream law, but struggles on specific niches, where it’s more prone to hallucination. “We know the limits, and people have been extremely well informed on the risk of hallucination,” he says. “Within the firm, we’ve gone to great lengths with a big training program.”

Other lawyers who spoke to WIRED were cautiously optimistic about the use of AI in their practice. 

“It is certainly very interesting and definitely indicative of some of the fantastic innovation that is taking place within the legal industry,” says Sian Ashton, client transformation partner at law firm TLT. “However, this is definitely a tool in its infancy and I wonder if it is really doing much more than provide precedent documents which are already available in the business or from subscription services.”

AI is likely to remain used for entry-level work, says Daniel Sereduick, a data protection lawyer based in Paris, France. “Legal document drafting can be a very labor-intensive task that AI seems to be able to grasp quite well. Contracts, policies, and other legal documents tend to be normative, so AI's capabilities in gathering and synthesizing information can do a lot of heavy lifting.”

But, as Allen & Overy has found, the output from an AI platform is going to need careful review, he says. “Part of practicing law is about understanding your client’s particular circumstances, so the output will rarely be optimal.” 

Sereduick says that while the outputs from legal AI will need careful monitoring, the inputs could be equally challenging to manage. “Data submitted into an AI may become part of the data model and/or training data, and this would very likely violate the confidentiality obligations to clients and individuals’ data protection and privacy rights,” he says. 

This is particularly an issue in Europe, where the use of this kind of AI might breach the principles of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which governs how much data about individuals can be collected and processed by companies. 

“Can you lawfully use a piece of software built on that foundation [of mass data scraping]? In my opinion, this is an open question,” says data protection expert Robert Bateman. 

Law firms would likely need a firm legal basis under the GDPR to feed any personal data about clients they control into a generative AI tool like Harvey, and contracts in place covering the processing of that data by third parties operating the AI tools, Bateman says.

Wakeling says that Allen & Overy is not using personal data for its deployment of Harvey, and wouldn’t do so unless it could be convinced that any data would be ring-fenced and protected from any other use. Deciding on when that requirement was met would be a case for the company’s information security department. “We are being extremely careful about client data,” Wakeling says. “At the moment we’re using it as a non-personal data, non-client data system to save time on research or drafting, or preparing a plan for slides—that kind of stuff.”

International law is already toughening up when it comes to feeding generative AI tools with personal data. Across Europe, the EU’s AI Act is looking to more stringently regulate the use of artificial intelligence. In early February, Italy’s Data Protection Agency stepped in to prevent generative AI chatbot Replika from using the personal data of its users. 

But Wakeling believes that Allen & Overy can make use of AI while keeping client data safe and secure—all the while improving the way the company works. “It’s going to make some real material difference to productivity and efficiency,” he says. Small tasks that would otherwise take valuable minutes out of a lawyer’s day can now be outsourced to AI. “If you aggregate that over the 3,500 lawyers who have got access to it now, that’s a lot,” he says. “Even if it’s not complete disruption, it’s impressive.”

Nina Tolstrup channels Barbie and Palm Springs for LDF installation

Designer Nina Tolstrup has positioned three immersive pavilions informed by Barbie Dreamhouses and Palm Springs' mid-century modern architecture on the Strand as part of London Design Festival. Tolstrup, co-founder of London-based design studio Studiomama, worked in collaboration with Barbie creators Mattel and tourism agency Visit Greater Palm Springs to create the installation, titled Pavilions of Wonder.

Studiomama's Nina Tolstrup has designed three pavilions for this year's London Design Festival. Photo by Ed Reeve"The theme for London Design Festival (LDF) this year is play, we originally were thinking of a fairground", Tolstrup told Dezeen of the installation, which is currently on display as part of LDF. "Eventually we went to Palm Springs and studied the amazing houses there." Pavilions of Wonder celebrates the playful design of Barbie Dreamhouses, while also referring the desert modernism of Palm Springs' mid-century modern architecture in California. This year marks the 65th anniversary of Barbie.

The installation was informed by the architecture of Barbie DreamHouses and Palm Springs. Photo by Ed Reeve"The pavilions sit together in harmony on the Strand," the designer said. "We early on went in with our small traffic cones and marked it all out to know exactly how the pavilions would look, where they're sitting in the space and how this works to scale." The first pavilion, Dream: Infinity Garden, is the largest of the three, measuring five meters in diameter with a height of three and a half meters. According to Tolstrup "the rest are within that footprint, but in different shapes."

Dream: Infinity Garden reflects desert modernism with a cactus garden surrounded by mirrorsInspired by the oasis landscape of Palm Springs and the resort city's surrounding mountain range, Tolstrup designed the first pavilion as a circular 360-degree structure that is mirrored on the inside with a cactus garden reflected in the mirrors. Its rounded facade with upside-down arches was partially inspired by the bank buildings in the Palm Springs area, including the Coachella Valley Savings & Loan Bank designed by local architect E Stewart Williams. "The climate is very much this outdoor living situation you get seduced by when you are there," the designer said. "Everything is highlighted on top of the mountains – cactus gardens and an incredible sunrise and sunset. We wanted to bring that into the Strand."

Discover: Design Stories is made from corrugated MDF sheet material that can be flat-packed and reusedThe pavilion was built by construction company Cloud & Horse using corrugated off-the-shelf MDF sheet material that can be flat-packed in sections and reused after dismantling, without needing to be cut into. Water-based pink paint was applied to one side of material. According to Tolstrup, Swiss architect Albert Frey's second house in Palm Springs, Frey House II, informed this more sustainable and cost-effective way of building.

It features vignettes of Barbie Dreamhouse backdrops that display actual Barbie dollsDiscover: Design Stories, the second pavilion, was built with CNC-cut plywood held together on legs by a metal scaffold grid system that can also be dismantled. A play on shape and form, this structure combines elements of the geometric signage commonly found in the Palm Springs area with aspects of straight, often squared, swimming pools. These are commonly associated with both mid-century architecture and the designs of Barbie Dreamhouses dating back to 1962.

Ten must-see installations at London Design Festival 2024

"This pavilion is snake-shaped and has a mirrored roof," said Tolstrup. "In there we have peephole openings, windows into the Barbie world where you can look in and discover." Mattel provided the design team with vignettes of Barbie Dreamhouse backdrops to inform the peepholes. Each of the structure's openings displays actual Barbie dolls throughout history.

Reflect: Playful Pauses has a pointed roof with kaleidoscopic round circles made out of drainage tubesThe third pavilion, Reflect: Playful Pauses, was inspired by the Palm Springs City Hall and the Tramway Gas Station, also designed by Frey. Known for its distinct hyperbolic paraboloid canopy, the gas station has been referenced in previous Barbie Dreamhouses that incorporated similar overhanging roofs. Built as a "very simple metal grid", the pavilion has a pointed roof along with ornamenting kaleidoscopic round circles made out of painted drainage tubes. "The idea that your views are distorted or changing and reflecting when you walk around, that is an effect used in the front of the City Hall," said Tolstrup. "The qualities of mid-century architecture in Palm Springs, there's this wonderful simplicity to it."

This pavilions are located at The Strand in central London. Photo by Ed ReeveAll three structures will be lit up at night, providing a colourful intervention to arouse the curiosity of pedestrians in the area. "A very central London location like that in itself will generate a lot of traffic," said Tolstrup. "The installation is not a theme park but still inspired by that idea of play, you can walk around and have different experiences. It should invite for interaction, and it should be colourful." Other LDF events and installations include a modular furniture showcase and an exhibition and auction of eyewear by designers and artists. The photography is by London Design Festival, unless stated otherwise. Pavilions of Wonder is on show from 14 to 22 September as part of London Design Festival.

Scaffolding

Scaffolding is a temporary structure that supports construction workers and allows them to work at height. It is commonly used on skyscrapers and other tall buildings, but it also is important for maintenance work such as painting and cleaning windows. Depending on the type of building, scaffolding may be made from wood or steel. It is generally erected by trained and licensed erectors, who have the necessary knowledge of the building’s construction and safety standards. The scaffolding also must be properly maintained to reduce the risk of falling debris and other hazards.

One of the most common causes of scaffolding accidents is poor construction. This can include using unsuitable materials for the job or ignoring construction and safety standards. Additionally, weather can make working at height dangerous. Rain or snow can cause planks to slip, and temperature changes can affect the structural integrity of the scaffolding. Another significant cause of scaffolding accidents is a lack of proper training. Workers must be trained in the specific types of scaffolding they use, and should receive ongoing training to prevent unsafe practices.

Teachers use a teaching technique called scaffolding to help students understand new lessons and concepts. The strategy involves offering lessons in distinct segments and gradually reducing the support as students master the material. This approach can be used at any age level, and it can benefit students of all abilities. It is especially helpful for students with learning disabilities, as it helps them comprehend new concepts without overwhelming them.

Efficiency of Abseiling Window Cleaning in London

In the vibrant cityscape of London, where towering skyscrapers and modern architectural marvels dominate the skyline, maintaining the cleanliness and aesthetic appeal of buildings is a critical task. Among the various methods employed for window cleaning, abseiling has emerged as a highly effective and increasingly popular technique, particularly for the tall and complex structures that characterize the city. Abseiling window cleaning, also known as rope access window cleaning, is a specialized service that combines the precision of traditional window cleaning with the efficiency and reach provided by industrial rope access techniques.

Abseiling Window Cleaning: The Ultimate Solution for High-Rise Structures

Abseiling Window Cleaning is the go-to solution for high-rise buildings, where traditional methods, such as using ladders or scaffolding, are either impractical or impossible. The technique involves highly trained and certified professionals descending from the roof of a building using ropes and harnesses to clean windows as they go. This method is not only safe but also allows for easy access to all areas of the building, no matter how complex the structure may be. The flexibility offered by abseiling ensures that even the most challenging architectural designs can be addressed, making it an essential service for maintaining the pristine appearance of London’s skyscrapers.

One of the key advantages of abseiling window cleaning is its minimal impact on the surrounding environment. Unlike scaffolding, which can be cumbersome and obstructive, or cherry pickers, which require space and can disrupt traffic or pedestrian flow, abseiling requires only a secure anchor point on the building's roof. This means that businesses and residents experience little to no disruption during the cleaning process, allowing daily activities to continue as usual.

Safety and Professionalism in Abseiling Window Cleaning

Safety is paramount in abseiling window cleaning, and all technicians undergo rigorous training and certification to ensure they are equipped to handle the physical demands and potential hazards of the job. Companies offering these services in London adhere strictly to the highest safety standards, including those set out by the International Rope Access Trade Association (IRATA). This ensures that every cleaning operation is carried out safely, efficiently, and with the utmost professionalism.

The safety measures employed in abseiling window cleaning extend beyond just the technicians. The method itself is designed to minimize risk to the building, its occupants, and the public. The use of high-quality, regularly inspected equipment, combined with the expertise of the cleaning team, guarantees a smooth operation from start to finish. Furthermore, abseiling allows for a thorough inspection of the building's exterior, enabling early detection of any potential issues such as structural damage or wear and tear, which can be addressed promptly to prevent more significant problems down the line.

Why London’s Buildings Need Regular Window Cleaning

London’s buildings, especially in the city center, are exposed to various environmental factors that contribute to the accumulation of dirt and grime on their windows. Pollution, dust, and bird droppings are just a few of the elements that can tarnish the appearance of a building over time. Regular window cleaning is essential not only for aesthetic reasons but also for the longevity of the windows themselves. Dirt and grime can cause scratches and other damage to the glass, leading to costly repairs or replacements if not addressed regularly.

For businesses, the appearance of their building can significantly impact their brand image. Clean, well-maintained windows project a professional image and can contribute to a positive first impression for clients and visitors. In a competitive market like London, where reputation and appearance matter, investing in regular window cleaning is a smart business decision.

Contract Window Cleaning in London: A Tailored Approach to Maintenance

While abseiling is an excellent solution for high-rise buildings, contract window cleaning services in London offer a comprehensive approach to maintaining the cleanliness of buildings of all sizes. These services are tailored to meet the specific needs of each client, ensuring that all aspects of window cleaning are covered, from the frequency of cleaning to the methods used.

Contract window cleaning is particularly beneficial for commercial properties, where regular maintenance is crucial. By entering into a contract with a professional window cleaning company, businesses can ensure that their building's windows are cleaned consistently and to a high standard. This not only keeps the property looking its best but also helps to prevent long-term damage caused by neglect.

Contract window cleaning services in London are designed to be flexible and convenient. Clients can choose the frequency of cleaning, whether it’s weekly, monthly, or quarterly, depending on their needs and budget. Additionally, professional window cleaning companies use a range of methods and equipment to suit the specific requirements of each building. For instance, low-rise buildings might benefit from traditional window cleaning techniques, while mid-rise structures could use water-fed poles, and high-rise buildings would employ abseiling.

The Environmental Benefits of Professional Window Cleaning

In addition to the aesthetic and maintenance benefits, professional window cleaning also has environmental advantages. Many window cleaning companies in London are committed to using eco-friendly cleaning solutions that minimize the impact on the environment. These solutions are not only effective at removing dirt and grime but are also safe for use around people and animals, making them an excellent choice for buildings in busy urban areas.

Furthermore, regular Contract Window Cleaning London can help reduce energy costs. Clean windows allow more natural light to enter a building, reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day. This can lead to significant energy savings over time, particularly for large commercial properties.

Choosing the Right Window Cleaning Service in London

When selecting a window cleaning service in London, it’s important to consider several factors, including the company’s experience, reputation, and the range of services they offer. A professional and reliable window cleaning company will have a proven track record of delivering high-quality services and will be able to provide references or testimonials from satisfied clients.

It’s also essential to choose a company that prioritizes safety and follows industry best practices. This is particularly important for abseiling window cleaning, where the risks associated with working at height are greater. Clients should look for companies that are members of professional organizations such as IRATA and have fully trained and certified technicians.

In conclusion, abseiling window cleaning and contract window cleaning services are indispensable for maintaining the appearance and integrity of buildings in London. Whether it’s a towering skyscraper or a mid-rise office block, regular window cleaning ensures that properties remain in top condition, enhancing their value and appeal.

04x09 - Country Cousin

Burnside arrives at Kings Cross to collect a visiting DS Jarvis from Matlock. Jarvis' train is apparently delayed by half an hour. Frank buys himself a burger to fill time, but spots DS Jarvis before he can tuck in. (He can tell he's a copper without even speaking to him - I guess like can tell like!) He came in on an earlier train as he wanted to get his wife a present to take back. DS Jarvis is an uncultured country bumpkin and has no idea what Frank is on about when he tells him - using slang - that he has Jim and Mike waiting for them "in the vicinity of the house where your man is shacked up."

Taffy and Malcolm are called to an accident where a bus has crashed into building supplies with scaffolding poles having breached the front of the bus. Taffy cuts the engine of the bus before managing to force the doors open. The driver is badly injured and passengers are panicking to either be let out or shouting for help for other passengers. Upstairs is an elderly man who is out cold after falling from a standing position when the crash happened. He slowly comes round as Taffy directs a young lady to secure his head. An elderly lady is bleeding from a cut but seems otherwise alright. Downstairs Malcolm tries to keep the driver awake, calm and still as there are poles dangerously near his body.

Tom is driven to his hospital appointment by Viv. She tells him to look on the bright side as he'll soon be able to chase the girls again. He's arriving hours too early but Tom says he's looking forward to getting his teeth into some real police work "terrorising the public."

Taffy and Malcolm try to keep control of the passengers to find out what has happened. From the sounds of it, the driver didn't stop for the last few stops and may have suffered a medical episode whilst driving. They return back inside to help with the other injured passengers inside the bus.

Jarvis is unimpressed with London and how busy it is. Frank snarks that his suspect must have set fire to some straw bales. Finally, they pull up beside Jim and Mike who tell them the suspect is still inside. Mike and Jim take the back of the house whilst Frank and Jarvis take the front. Jarvis brings the gift for his wife with him(!) Mike and Jim find the back gate locked so try to climb over the wall...

The dog is chained up so they inch towards the back door of the house. Frank and Jarvis see a man come to the front door but he walks away once he's realised they're police. Jarvis continually presses the doorbell and punches the suspect in the nose when he finally opens the door, claiming he needs to learn respect for the law. Frank pushes him back and warns him to leave it out.

A trauma doctor arrives to help the passengers as the driver is weakening before he can be cut out. Soon after his heart stops and Taffy and the fire brigade have to act to quickly get him laid flat so the doctor can perform CPR. With the driver flat they also take the opportunity to remove him from the bus to be able to help him properly.

Viv wishes Tom good luck as she pulls outside the force doctors but he doesn't move. "If I'm not a copper I'm a nobody..." he worries. Viv tells him there's nothing wrong with him and urges him to go inside.

Taffy, Malcolm and the firemen help get the driver into the back of the ambulance once his heart has been restarted. The manager of the bus company tells them that the driver has no known history of illness and has been with them for 7 years. Taffy tries to get him to contact next of kin but he complains bus drivers are in short supply and that he's going to have to get someone else to drive the route.

Mike and Jim take the suspect to the station with Frank marching Jarvis to his car. "You think you're a bit of a hard nut don't you!" Jarvis told his wife he'd be back in time for supper so he didn't want to prolong things! Frank is not impressed. "No copper comes onto my manor and starts GBH'ing suspects in front of me." Frank decides he's going to give him a special welcome and drives him to a dark and seedy strip club. Jarvis is amazed and can't take his eyes from the women inside. In the gift bag is something 'personal' and he's still carrying it around with him. He catches Frank trying to nose.

Frank has to return to the station so leaves Mike to watch Jarvis. The owner tries to charge Mike £18 for a single brandy 'with entertainment thrown in'. Mike refuses and the owner offers to 'work out a discount'. Mike tells him he might be Burnsides 'great mate' but he's a ponce to him and suggests his 'discount' includes not being nicked for living off immoral earnings. Unfortunately, as Mike turns around, Jarvis has gone walkies and is nowhere to be seen. Mike drives off to try to find him.

Taffy and Malcolm follow the stretcher into the hospital, covered in the bus driver's blood. They share a drink until the driver's wife arrives. Mrs Williams denies her husband is on drugs and explains that he's epileptic. He purposely didn't declare it so he could keep his job. He's knowingly committed an offense. Mrs Williams is taken away by the doctor to see her husband.

Tom sits in the doctor's, eyeing over the other injured and sick officers gathered around him, all wanting to be signed back to work. He has a medical and is assessed by the doctor who gives him no clues either way. It'll be a month until he knows for sure.

Jarvis has finally made a reappearance. He's angrily thrown out of the strip club by the manager and what looks like a brothel madam. He fights to go back inside and brawls with the security. Mike hears the call come over the radio and turns back to try to get there before any other officers do. Viv answers the call officially with Tom who gets a bit of a spark back in himself at the thought of being the first on the scene. They separate the fighting group and try to find out what happened. Jarvis tells Mike that they'd tried to bill him for £120. "A carrot cruncher I may be. A fool with me money? Never."

Jarvis calls his wife to tell her that he might not be home that night because he's having to go 'undercover for the MET'. He insists it was his cover story for the black eye he received. Frank wants him gone on the next train but Tom insists he can't as they're charging the bouncer and club owner with assault on him, for running a brothel and for procuring underage girls for prostitution. Tom is even more amused when he realises that the owner is a friend of Frank's.

Frank finally gets rid of him with his prisoner and tells him to send someone else next time 'his lot needs some help.' He still doesn't get to look in the gift bag after all that!
