This public information film is charming and fun – but the message still stands, at least for the UK – if you see someone on the coast in trouble, dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.

The BBC is reporting that the Coastguards are going on strike this Bank Holiday weekend, so if you’re going out please take care.

Stay safe, everyone.
