2:05 I love how the guy getting off the truck bumps into the other guy's face

[@chicagonotactuallychicago]

I don't know why I find a show about the British underground so fun. Am I boring?

[@ayomide1007]

You ain't the only one!

[@andmos1001]

It might because there is always something happening on the tube

[@hamishc2445]

Well Yes But Actually No

[@RoboCoonie]

No.

[@nenblom]

No. I've been trying to find shows about the New York City subway. I live about 2 hours west of NYC and I have ridden that subway many times.

[@LachlanKellett]

that's the Tube for ya. On side in panic and the other side of customers are like ( 1. These flowers are 10/10. ( 2. Why am i looking at flowers when i need to catch a train to work.

The staged emergency must be so hard to do without p!ssing yourself laughing while doing it.

[@VerilyVerbatim]

Hmm... nice simulation... but a train hitting the buffers, at any speed..... no-one is going to be standing up and banging on the windows for help? Make it an actual simulation?

The intro to this and music reminds me of a video you’re forced to watch at school or work and you’re just sat there bored thinking well at least we’re at the video part of the presentation.

[@TheFlatCapFromWN5]

You know, I reckon it would be amazing if we could revive this show and have Geoff Marshall and Vicki Pipe, be a part of it. How good would that be? 😁

[@limesaviation2602]

The Sons of Epsilon This show was filmed in the mid 2000’s before Geoff and Vicki were KZbinrs. Can’t you not see the quality and also the KZbin channel that uploaded this did not make this show They just brought the rights to it. Some people are so daft

[@TheFlatCapFromWN5]

Limee Gaming I'm fully aware of that. You're completely missing my point. My suggestion was of a revival of this show with said people. It's absolutely possible to do. Not likely, but possible.

[@limesaviation2602]

The Sons of Epsilon Ok sorry my mistake sorry for calling you daft

[@sonuchadalavada5193]

Actually I believe Geoff was in one of the episodes. I don't remember which one exactly.

[@BeansRUs]

Hold up, so the ERU doesn’t even have any blue lights, or sirens? How do they expect them to arrive quickly to an emergency incident without having to wait for a police escort?

[@rxss6154]

Its because of all the extra hassle registering a vehicle as an emergency service vehicle with the DVLA, plus all the extra training involved. (You need to get your blues and too’s certificate which can take some time, plus it costs a lot of money to train someone), in the end it just isn’t worth it. My sister used to work for the MET and she wasn’t even blues and too’s trained. They train the bare minimum. They could put coloured flashing lights other than blue or green (eg yellow) to show the importance (kind of like Doctor’s cars with green lights) but they can’t break any speed limits or rules, plus people don’t have to move out of the way for you. But most likely if it was really serious, like you said, they will get a police escort

[@cesariojpn]

Since the video was made and as a result of inquiries of the 7/7 bombings, some ERU response units now fall under the purview of the BTP. Easier to assign a BTP officer and slap BTP livery onto vehicles than going thru the hassle of going thru the registration process with certifying the ERU staff for Emergency Service Driving. www.ukemergency.co.uk/wx07-nwb-this-mercedes-truck-is-marked-in-british-transport-police-livery/

[@sunshubian]

Thats why they respond so slowly and more people die

[@RBenjo21]

As has been said this has been changed now.

[@jaxcoss5790]

​@sunshubian Absolute nonsense. It's obvious you know nothing about the team!

[@RoboCoonie]

That drill was way too calm. It needed more screaming, maybe some fake blood, a fog machine (for smoke), way more noise than what's going on. Passengers aren't going to be that calm and quiet, and it would be a lot more hectic.

[@mistywolf312]

The victims are volunteer members of the public not trained actors, they do their best to act as they think they will in the situation, if the scenario involved a fire then i am sure a different set up would have been done, this one did not, i aggree with you on the noise levels, also this was edited so its possible that some of the volunteers panic was removed.

[@rachaelevans8351]

Bitter Gay Man a lot of the time, certain people (regular civilians) will help people by taking a lead and encourage people to walk slow, single file

[@MakeItWithCalvin]

It is impossible to fully recreate a disaster but I think this is more about getting everyone to drill reporting in, finding problems, and fixing them.

[@yss57able]

No, you're not boring.😀 I LOVE these episodes. I'm literally addicted to "news/info" shows anyway. Keep doing what you're doing. I sure am!!😉

[@nenblom]

I guess the Emergency Response Unit is the same as New York City’s Emergency Services Unit (ESU). Both very elite units.

[@Eliteerin]

They are a small amount of highly trained staff so yeah exactly
