A1: Britain's Longest Road

Traffic officers battle to reach the scene of multi-car pileup which gridlock the road. Police use the A1 to catch shoplifters on the run and a mission to drive a life size TV icon through the night proves anything but a piece of cake.

A pedestrian goes walkabout on the motorway putting lives in danger and police use brute force to rescue a stranded motorist in rush hour traffic. Plus, a British military icon goes into battle against the A1 traffic.

An accident on a wet road leaves a life hanging in the balance. A lorry fire threatens to cause traffic chaos on the A1, and the closure of the road leaves an antiques dealer counting the cost.

Police face a hefty challenge to clear a road after a bin lorry overturns. Safety inspectors launch a clampdown on dangerous lorries, and a canine team's journey up the A1 is dogged by traffic chaos.

Police face a tricky pursuit to stop a suspected stolen car on a rain-soaked A1. Traffic officers battle to remove dangerous debris from the road which could cause chaos. And police arrest a reckless drink driver who is nearly five times over the limit.

Police race to a lorry engulfed in flames which is threatening to close the road. Plus, the gospel choir singing out loud on the Great North Road and the supersize RAF blowout that goes from bad to worse.

Traffic cops box clever to catch a motorist red-handed. A distressing crash leaves drivers in shock, and two film-loving newlyweds take the A1 high road for a bit of movie magic.
