Down at the Docks - Bristol

Bristol Port Company brings in huge cargo ships from around the world carrying products ranging from food and wine, to cars and aeroplane fuel. It is in operation 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. We meet the team working throughout the night ensuring the ships arrive and are unloaded safely.

Spencer works high up as a crane operator but he’s also an aspiring musician who brings a ukulele to work. We also meet Rich, a newly promoted supervisor getting to grips with the role, Dave, the assistant harbour master who oversees the coming and going of the ships, and Oksana, the car operative who drives brand-new cars off the ships all night whilst her daughter is home sleeping.
