DESCRIPTION

This winter, the ice road heroes face freak weather conditions. A once in a lifetime storm and record breaking rain and snow throw up massive challenges. Tackling the toughest jobs of their careers, Thord and Bjoern face new dangers and rely on each other like never before. In the north, Jo Roger needs last year’s rookie, Stig, to step up and become a rescue leader - but is he up to the job?
