Grenfell, the worst fire in living memory, shocked the firefighting community across the West Midlands, but only two weeks later - as tensions about tower blocks run high across the country - firefighters tackle a high-rise blaze in central Birmingham. Sheldon White Watch responds to the incident, where residents run down the stairwells as smoke is seen coming from the sixth floor.
Elsewhere in the city, fire safety officer Mia Temple is out reassuring residents of other tower blocks that they are safe. Mia conducts safety tests to calm the nerves of some elderly residents. Meanwhile, Highgate Red Watch is on nightshift when it's called out – the team has to use brains and brawn to save a man's leg trapped by 10 tonnes of double decker bus.
