Episode 3

Series following workers at one of Britain's biggest water companies. How do United Utilities deal with potential disasters, including sewage in Liverpool and blockages in Oldham?

In the world of water there is never a dull day, from broken sewers contaminating water supplies in hundreds of homes, to raw sewage polluting a river. This episode sees the men and women of United Utilities keep calm and carry on in the face of potential disaster.

On the front line, the company's only all-female waste water A-team Vic and Babs are happy to unblock customers' drains and see off sewage in Liverpool - even in the face of some customers who feel drains are no place for the fairer sex. A stomach-churning blockage in Oldham sees apprentice manager Faz just about managing to keep it down. Unhappy customers voice their concerns about a new six-mile water pipeline near Blackburn, and the disconnection team come face to face with some tricky customers as they try to recover an eye-watering 拢64,000 in unpaid bills.
