32
At 00:03:23,008, Character said: (ocean waves crashing)

33
At 00:03:25,467, Character said: Is it too fanciful to imagine
that the small sea towns

34
At 00:03:28,657, Character said: which border this coast,
cower from the sea,

35
At 00:03:31,714, Character said: perhaps as if in race memory

36
At 00:03:33,453, Character said: of the invaders who came
across these narrow seas,

37
At 00:03:36,016, Character said: the Vikings.

38
At 00:03:38,934, Character said: Or is it, perhaps, an awareness,

39
At 00:03:40,543, Character said: that the North Sea gives up
its treasure unwillingly?

40
At 00:03:44,119, Character said: But the men who have fished
it for generations know that,

41
At 00:03:46,443, Character said: for them, the North Sea is a widow maker.

46
At 00:04:20,716, Character said: From the sea bed to the
top of the drilling derrick

47
At 00:04:23,038, Character said: would be 690 feet.

48
At 00:04:25,278, Character said: The steel had to be
protected inside and out

49
At 00:04:28,369, Character said: by a combination of plastic
coatings and electrolysis.

50
At 00:04:32,093, Character said: Not something you can do
in any old totter's yard.

51
At 00:04:35,445, Character said: (slow-paced orchestral music)
(choir singing)

54
At 00:04:46,660, Character said: (slow-paced orchestral music)
(choir singing)

55
At 00:04:56,154, Character said: - And somehow these cumbersome

56
At 00:04:57,552, Character said: steel contraptions had to be set afloat

57
At 00:04:59,955, Character said: and towed 110 miles offshore,
and to be set upright

58
At 00:05:03,957, Character said: and pinned on the ocean bed.

59
At 00:05:06,899, Character said: On launching day, nobody could
guess what might happen next.

60
At 00:05:10,149, Character said: (loud explosion)

to withstand waves of 94 feet

65
At 00:05:59,310, Character said: and winds of 130 miles an hour.

66
At 00:06:01,933, Character said: In the splash areas the impact of a wave,

67
At 00:06:04,395, Character said: could be several thousand tons

68
At 00:06:06,194, Character said: striking both sideways and
downwards at the same time.

69
At 00:06:10,824, Character said: Floating cranes had to be designed

70
At 00:06:12,928, Character said: to lift into position
units that were heavier

71
At 00:06:15,562, Character said: and more cumbersome than anything that had

72
At 00:06:17,338, Character said: ever been lifted before at sea.

73
At 00:06:19,520, Character said: Nobody knew all the answers,

74
At 00:06:21,598, Character said: nobody could hope to think of everything.

75
At 00:06:23,816, Character said: You could only do your
sums and say your prayers.

76
At 00:06:28,657, Character said: It wasn't expected though
they'd ever turn out

77
At 00:06:30,747, Character said: quite like this.

78
At 00:06:32,327, Character said: Machinery has bred machinery,

79
At 00:06:34,346, Character said: platforms have grown up and
out like junkyards on stilts.

80
At 00:06:47,478, Character said: - Piper, one
of the largest fields

81
At 00:06:49,905, Character said: in the North Sea, holds the
current world production record

82
At 00:06:52,923, Character said: for a single platform.

83

quarter of UK production.

84
At 00:06:57,764, Character said: (ticking)

85
At 00:07:14,887, Character said: - A vision of hell I thought it was.

86
At 00:07:16,629, Character said: The first thing I thought,
"God, how can anybody

87
At 00:07:18,370, Character said: "work on one of these things?"

88
At 00:07:21,735, Character said: Your ship seemed to be quite
comfortable in comparison.

89
At 00:07:25,196, Character said: Ya know, when you see these guys,

90
At 00:07:26,601, Character said: these ants walking
around in their hard hats

91
At 00:07:29,305, Character said: and their overalls, I have
nothing but admiration for them.

92
At 00:07:33,405, Character said: You know, if that rig
decides to upset you,

93
At 00:07:35,624, Character said: there's only going to be one winner.

94
At 00:07:37,934, Character said: He's goin' against the
man, 2,000 tons of heck,

95
At 00:07:40,472, Character said: he's gonna win all the time.

96
At 00:07:42,167, Character said: (machinery clanking)

97
At 00:07:54,623, Character said: (bass-heavy music)
(machinery clanking)

98
At 00:08:13,852, Character said: - Everything was hunky dory then.

99
At 00:08:15,607, Character said: (laughs) It was good.

100
At 00:08:19,409, Character said: Was some cracking times...

101
At 00:08:22,960, Character said: before that night.

102
At 00:08:24,558, Character said: (even-paced music)

103
At 00:08:31,814, Character said: - It was work.

104
At 00:08:33,196, Character said: I didn't go to work there thinkin' we were

105
At 00:08:35,261, Character said: particularly unsafe.

106
At 00:08:40,111, Character said: It was a different environment,
but it's an evironment

107
At 00:08:42,676, Character said: you soon g***t used to because a lot of it

108
At 00:08:44,951, Character said: was just similar to working on shore.

109
At 00:08:48,005, Character said: Except, obviously the getting
in there and the getting home.

110
At 00:08:51,002, Character said: (even-paced music)
(helicopter flying)

111
At 00:08:58,241, Character said: - It was 112 miles, so just about an hour,

112
At 00:09:00,881, Character said: 50 minutes to an hour, depending on

113
At 00:09:02,286, Character said: the weather conditions.

114
At 00:09:04,506, Character said: You just sat there and either
fell asleep or read a book

115
At 00:09:06,681, Character said: until you g***t out to the platform.

116
At 00:09:08,305, Character said: (helicopter flying)

117
At 00:09:17,379, Character said: - Oh, it was all a new experience then.

118
At 00:09:20,222, Character said: I have seen people fly out, step off,

119
At 00:09:23,995, Character said: and say, "I'm not, no I can't do this."

120
At 00:09:27,945, Character said: I've seen that happen, yeah.

121
At 00:09:29,914, Character said: (helicopter flying)

122
At 00:09:33,520, Character said: - I always thought, if there was

123
At 00:09:34,764, Character said: ever going to be an accident,

124
At 00:09:36,097, Character said: it would be the transfer there and back

125
At 00:09:37,795, Character said: in helicopter.

126
At 00:09:39,910, Character said: But you do think about it.

127
At 00:09:41,254, Character said: If anything ever happened,
you think once you get on the

128
At 00:09:42,996, Character said: platform, you're safe for the fortnight.

129
At 00:09:45,039, Character said: Which, obviously I g***t
that wrong as well, so.

130
At 00:09:47,531, Character said: Me ju-ju is not appealing, is it?

131
At 00:09:49,931, Character said: (waves crashing)

132
At 00:09:54,467, Character said: (ticking)
(ominous orchestral music)
