Overview

Time passes very slowly when you're a firefighter waiting for the emergency call. When the siren sounds, though, it's action stations - down the pole, into the vehicle, don the gear, and off and away! This short film featuring members of 'A' Division of Greater Manchester Fire Service shows us just how a firefighter's day can unfold.
