[laughter] then he turned to me and said, i should warn you, mate, there is a wee bit of a cyclone coming our way. he was not exaggerating, there was a cyclone coming our way. it was a national emergency and the power was out and there were gale force winds and i said that's not a problem, we will waited out. he said, no, no, no, the squids only hatched during this time, so we have to go in a bizarre opportunity. so we get in the skiff and it's getting dark and he starts to launch the boat in the water and i said, what you doing, it's getting dark. he said, oh, oh, giant squid's rise at night so we have to go at night so we get off set into deepwater and my -- the water in my squid hunter, from a diving accident, points to a buoy in the distance and says, what color is that? i said it is green

you know, many of them actually just because they've got very small outboard motors that are fast runningidn't make it, not because the french turned them, but they don't do that. but they just couldn't make it to this. >> sorry to be facetious. does that mean there's something in the home office is purported scheme put a wave machine in scheme to put a wave machine in the channel? of course the channel? this, of course appeared of papers. appeared in some of the papers. it's again and again. it's popped up again and again. is is this thinking is there is this the thinking behind is there is this the thinking beiyeah, it it's quite >> yeah, it it's quite ludicrous. i mean, they don't need because actually need to do that because actually the channel can be pretty treacherous even when they see it's flat calm. it's never really flat calm. you'll always get some wave activity. they get wakes as well from all of these parts shipping the big cargo vessels and oil tankers and other shipping that plough up and down the channel that create these huge, huge weeks in the can very quickly inundate

some component parts come for china from china, such as the outboard motors, but they are assembled tountries like germany . over to countries like germany. there's also been increased cooperation between the uk and german law enforcement agencies. so they are trying to do some things on the you know, on the side of going after the people smugglers to try to stop it in the first place. but it's difficult to do because it's now such a well organised in industry that the people smuggling industry with these people traffickers who are making from . between 100 and making from. between 100 and 50,000 to $250,000 for each boat because it's costing someone who wants to go on a boat across the channel between 3 and £5000. there are getting at least 50 people on these vessels . it's people on these vessels. it's a very lucrative industry. it's like the drugs trade. you know, the war on drugs is never ending. they can have some success is, but it's just such a lucrative industry that the criminal gangs will always find a way through if one raid results in a particular ring being smashed and all

have intelligence on who is manufacturing these boats, the actual rubber boats providing the outboard motorsu stop them. that way. and there are efforts to be fair, as i say, there are underway, but it's such a difficult job given the large nature of this operation and the sophisticated nature of this illegal operation. i'm not 100% sure why any of us bother working for a living, because it does appear that you can manufacture completely undetected the very lucrative sale of these small boats. >> but when it comes to working for a living, mark, apparently tougher rules and regs when it comes to people who are employing illegal immigrants. i did make little quip earlier did make a little quip earlier on about, well, goes your on about, well, there goes your local car wash, but you actually did investigation into to did do an investigation into to this kind of stuff. and what's going to happen then if people are employing illegal immigrants now . now. >> well, the potentially will face the prospect of immigration enforcement coming banging down their door in these raids that they are seeing th

but if i have a lorry load not so small boats lorry load of not so small boats with a load of outboard motorsmous for people smuggling, we're looking at one of these ones now, by the way, with the reinforced base on it. then that's all right. you can wave on through . so should wave that on through. so should we honest say that we just be honest and say that this more to do with the this has got more to do with the complete and utter corruption by our european friends? is that fair . fair. >> i don't think that's fair. i don't think they're necessarily corrupt. that's to not say that there isn't corruption in place, in my experience, patrick, in many, many countries of the world. and i'm afraid that some of international organised of the international organised crime in fact state sponsored in my experience, what have done my experience, what we have done in provide funding in the past is provide a funding or there has been funding provided by the cho to us to send training trainers, expert trainers out to borders around the to world give them equipment, to show them how to deal equipment, to
