About this episode
Is there anybody there? Can anybody hear me?
Senior Constable Ian Bembridge heard these faint calls for help come across the radio as the sun was setting on a cold winter’s afternoon.
He and his partner embarked on a race against time to locate and rescue a father and his twin nine-year-old boys from their sinking vessel.
You’ll hear how a set of extraordinary coincidences helped police in their search and rescue efforts that day.
