Hovercraft Calamity: Out of Control

Two brothers arrange a day trip to the Isle of Wight, off England’s south coast. Keen to experience a novel form of transport, they travel by hovercraft. But on the return journey across the sea, the bad weather rolls in. With the hovercraft overwhelmed, Andy and Tim Benford will find themselves thrust into the centre of a disaster with tragic consequences. Wrenched apart, they’ll enter simultaneous survival scenarios - each fighting for his life whilst unsure if the other is alive or dead… A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins.
