loses his sister a geordie loses his juggling stick so this is actually happening now and everyone's feeling lost in translation [Music] customs is where so many misunderstandings can arise across 34 checkpoints travelers are asked to empty their bags under the keen gaze of customs officers anything to declare like officer poppy communication to passengers is very very important because if if you misunderstand what they want to tell you it's going to be it's going to be bad you have anything to declare nothing to declare no nothing to the exactly my place poppy and her team have to watch out for anyone bringing in anything unusual and they've seen it all snake life fish live total in bed luckily they've got their high tech x-ray machines to flag up any threats to the country this is one another and this one is kitkat and i believe that it's a green tea kitkat we see a lot of drugs we see ivory we see rhinos or rhino horns today christian has flown in from nigeria with a big bag of white powder it's enough to raise poppy suspicions what do you have sir drop this it's spicy yeah i know i don't need to declare this horse this one we what kind of powder this one is floor a flower eh poppy's heard that one before okay take this and those to the x-ray machine please the x-ray machine will help bobby get to the bottom of this the orange should present organic products with some type of drugs we'll turn it in green colors all right thank you so much happy the white powder really is flower poppy lets christian go with smiles all round bye bye now yeah bye you have to allow them to their work i mean you don't need to argue with them you give them the freedom if you're free you're free if you're not free the law will get hold on you does it finding a common language is a big help either that or downloading an app normally people traveling can speak english but some might not and we cannot speak all kinds of language so we try to use our technologies to communicate to passengers but all the technology in the world won't help officer who with her next case how long you stay here ma'am elena's flown in from moscow with her friend natalia and the cat it's a present for elena's son alexi they are at you she's extremely dumb oh my goodness go oh my god you pay duty for 1000 thai baht [Music] no problem yeah okay okay thailand has fairly relaxed quarantine restrictions on pets so after a quick trip to the cash point for the 19 pound duty fee elena's pussy's free to enter i do receipt the ladies pay the bill and go in search of elena's son okay bye thank you [Music] lexi can't wait to play with his new pet [Music] you know when you come back and there is something like alive near you like uh something that you can play with like cheer up it means it means a lot like for you [Music] not all misunderstandings can be sorted out as easily as alexi's new cat over in departures louise has requested the help of airport officials after she missed her flight home to paris they didn't let me get on the plane i need to get on the plane the plane left without her after an altercation at the gate and what's worse her daughter lilia has now vanished you get to the gate you go through security and your kid disappears it's relief all round when her daughter turns up this is my daughter that's her passport i found her back and basically they made me get off the gate right but louise is unhappy with how an information assistant spoke to her when she was searching for lilia she comes to the tourist police hq to confront the officer you told me to shut up no no no you told me to shut up you told me just shut up calm down no no no no i don't come down shut no you told me to [ __ ] shut up okay when my daughter was missing as they missed their original flight louise needs to find another one to get her and lilia home the staff give her a list of outgoing flights every day it doesn't really work for me at france that led to the parties but today that's fine can i have the boarding passes thank you but something gets lost in translation i'm not buying the ticket because i already paid for my ticket right i paid for my tickets and they took me away from the terminal this is your responsibility i don't care golf air air france american airlines whatever it is i need a boarding pass and i need to get back to france i don't understand why this is the boss man of the tourist police is sub lieutenant nila chart a man with a reputation for plain speaking police cannot do everything so i don't have any money i like boarding pass are you drunk sorry are you drunk no i'm not drunk i'm telling you about my problems and you're asking me if i'm drunk i'm not drunk sir i'm you have a whiskey before some whiskey before no look like a gun i cannot to help you miss i don't understand why this is happening right foreign he just walked out [Music] [Music] um with no money and no ticket looks like louise and lilia are stuck at bangkok airport bangkok airport calls itself the airport of smiles but don't be fooled to run smoothly an airport needs rules and no one loves rules more get in the line then captain a few from this line or that way i don't want all the passengers to expect that we will always smile all the time sometimes you need to be tough when you deal with some passengers the airport has more than 200 passport control checkpoints it's captain a's job to keep the queues moving and the tourists in line back to the line back in the line for captain a the rules are simple if you're caught pushing in you go right to the back it's not the rocket science to get in the line so why you do that it's not acceptable not at all captain a bends the rules for no man sorry and that includes peter from norfolk where's your wife but anyway sorry she's already passed the line that way sir just get back to the line the rules is through you need to get in the lie and i do have zero tolerance for the pastor who didn't follow by the rules zero tolerance i've got to go to the back yes of course my wife is there i've got my passport okay i can give you your password no that's fine because i've been waiting for him yes i don't understand but you know i cannot answer the question to those passengers why i cut the line for him worried too much just one person i've been to the toilet i had to go to the toilet quickly yes but anyway how can i answer the question all the way around there again please that way please let me know please after a short standoff peter makes a tactical retreat [Music] i gave way in the end i thought i might be sent to the prison cellars for the passengers who do that they don't like me but for the rest of passengers who's still in the line i think they love me not everyone has to go to the back of captain a's q thailand is a buddhist country monks are always passing through the airport and special rules apply the monk is a representative of the lord buddha and for the rules for the buddhists we can pay respect to the monk but we cannot touch the monk at all untouchable mungsa even fast tracked through immigration which is where the trouble began for din pala from cambodia his sister's sock got left behind in the queue and now she's disappeared tourist officer panya is assigned to the case first stop is immigration where sock was last seen but they arrived too late [Music] [Music] outside no no it's difficult to fly difficult because they know ford cannot speak english and thailand everybody go with me having reached a heightened state of consciousness through many years of meditation din pallar has an idea he'll give her a poke on facebook [Music] back at police hq the officers get his wi-fi working and discuss the case is not online if she's online i can't contact her but now she maybe see no internet so they're off again but with 80 000 people passing through the airport every day din palace starts to lose faith [Music] maybe i lost i lost her maybe [Music] but just as hope fades he spots his sister much to pania's amazement [Music] socks in the queue at the mobile phone shop she was trying to get a new sim card so she could call him but now there's no need i think his exercise it's exciting and i'm glad to see his sitter you think my sister that i i love her but now i meet her thank you so much that you always go with me and face my accent thank you so much now and brother police i thank you so much in the excitement panya nearly forgets the no touching rule but no harm done it's another result for the tourist police and it's back to hq for a team photo [Music] getting lost in translation is just one of the hazards of international travel doing yourself a mischief is another bangkok airport can sometimes resemble a war zone with doctors treating 700 patients every week the latest casualty is british backpacker hannah she's been sent down from check-in where they didn't like the look of her cast i fractured my leg about five days ago in vietnam i was um going canyoning and i was doing a cliff jump at the end and you're supposed to run and jump over the ledge i ran and then i stopped and then i fell and tumbled and i landed with all my weight on my leg are you okay i'm due to fly out home today to london and they need me to get a medical certificate to say that i'm okay to fly the fit supply certificate should be routine but hannah's cutting it a bit fine today's decision lies with dr art how are you i'm okay thank you many sick people want to travel but they don't know the rules when you travel by air there is a risk if you have medical problems you have to make sure that everything is okay before flying how long has it been uh five days five days did you fly a long flight communication is a very crucial for the treatment because if it's go wrong it's go wrong normally if you have a cast we have we recommend to split the gas because it might be swollen they're swollen it can cause you know like compartment syndrome which is you know you might lost your leg thing is we cannot cut it here you have to go to the hospital but it takes only 20 minutes there and then you have to come back yes you will still have time yeah yeah wow because if you fly like it i'm afraid that it will be bad well i just really want to get there as quickly as possible yeah so that i can yeah i can fly well hopefully they're going to take my cast off really fast but it just depends on traffic whether i can get to the hospital in time i really really want to get on this flight has anybody told them that i'm coming yeah okay okay can you get taxi the hospital's only 14 miles away but bangkok traffic can be slow and hannah doesn't know the tie for get a move on maybe go faster because yeah because i've only got um like less than two and a half hours now go go i don't have any luggage how long will it take okay if hammers to stand any chance of boarding her flight she's got to get across town get the cast cut and get back to the airport preferably while the plane's still there making yourself understood is one of the biggest challenges facing tourists and staff all of you can speak english in a cosmopolitan airport like bangkok avoiding communication cock-ups is a constant battle over at tourist information officer jibby doo is on the front line how may i help you for me i'm talking to india is a bit hard because their accent their pronunciation and that accent a bit hard for me to understand indeed noah british americans australian and new zealand um okay and if no one on the desk speaks your language there's a translation service at the end of the phone but even that doesn't always help what do you want and even if you speak perfect english things can still get lost in translation this almost looks like german toya and ali were due to fly home to south africa today till they got a message from their airline yeah they were like apply this cancer so we're like what are we gonna do and we call them and they're speaking in thai there's quite something but then they made a plan for the flight to be rescheduled to tomorrow so hence another day in bangkok but another day in bangkok means another night so they need to find their airlines desk to help arrange a hotel right now we're finding information let's try our accommodation for tonight there's a big question mark hanging over the information desk which is kind of fitting because toya and ali are about to get lost in pronunciation please can you tell me with this seems like he knew what he was talking about so i think you're in good hands or are they down on the first floor there's no sign of their airline desk anywhere hello i'm looking for the counter for [Music] [Music] but they've already been over there and it wasn't there [Music] first of all is it b or is it b that's what it says you're not on first floor wait it's not simple but hopefully we find it looking for the counter for cafe airways [Music] eventually the penny drops [Music] back on the fourth floor the girls soon find the cafe airways desk it's been there all along they could enjoy an extra night in bangkok after their free tour of the airport and a long lesson in clear diction maybe we just have to learn to say it better must be something like that [Music] over in customs officer poppy is logging all the booze she's confiscated from passengers who've exceeded their allowance but in an airport like bangkok that's not as easy as it sounds and how can i write down this because it's all chinese platter i believe it's a liquor sake but it's written in chinese and i couldn't read it but i have to do their list so i don't know what i'm gonna do with this okay next time could you please in english a little bit but it's not just liquid spirits that poppy has to look out for for years the custom staffer believed that the storage area in the basement is haunted sometimes you might hear some noise that you cannot experience or things happen that you cannot explain to us it just like believe legend has it that someone fell into the concrete as it was being poured leaving an eerie outline of a face in the pillow he said to me it's look like a lady but i won't get it yet according to officer cringsak the face can be clearly seen [Music] is not sure but just in case the staff created a small shrine where they leave gifts we pay her respect by just keeping her julie that we think that she loves it and just occasionally the pillar gives back the one who asked for the lotto number he or she won won the lotto [Music] up in departures louise could do with some divine intervention she and daughter lilia missed their flight home to paris after a row at the gate the tourist police can't help her so she's refusing to leave the airport even though it's driving her nuts i'm feeling like i'm gonna die i just wanna pass out and disappear you know i'm like i haven't slept i don't know what to do louise calls her airline and asks for a free flight but it sounds like they're not listening 340 euro to get on the plane it's so much money i don't know i'm a student i don't have travel insurance please you gotta help me can you please put me on that plane [Music] please i'm gonna die i think he said that i should try to go and speak with the information desk and that i should have called him earlier and go to the french embassy and that now basically he can't do anything i have to talk to those people at four o'clock tomorrow with their pleas apparently falling on deaf ears louise and lilia face another 24 hours at bangkok airport [Music] we last saw hannah racing to a bangkok hospital to have her cast split open but she's got less than two hours to sort it all out before her flight takes off but the doctor's nowhere to be seen and she can't communicate the urgency of her situation thinking the clock is ticking and no one's doing anything there's the saw right there i could just do it but i don't want to slice my leg off so yeah i just feel really worried that it's not going to happen [Music] after 40 long minutes the doctor finally comes and goes [Music] but only to get hannah's x-ray results how are you good thank you okay so i have to split the cast yeah did you fly this 11 it's 11 15. yeah really soon thank you for doing it quickly yeah during the procedure i would like you to relax okay and it may cause some noisy and some heat inside okay just relax [Music] thank you so much thank you thank you thank you let's go go go go medical certificate in hand thank you very much it's a race back to the end go faster please go faster i could walk faster than that so i need to go to the airport really fast go go go i have to be at the airport in in the next few minutes so if we could just go that would be really good come on i feel like i'm gonna throw up oh my god i bet they're closed oh [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] do you work here can i have i still got time wow looks like i might be getting on i'll believe it when i'm on there i will i feel like i'm so close though i can't possibly not get on the flight with only seconds to spare hannah makes the gate it's her first lucky break of the holiday [Music] in immigration they're bracing themselves for rush hour with airlines from over 60 different countries flying into bangkok clear communication is vital luckily captain a can send people to the back of the queue in several different languages be sat on but she always finds time to answer passengers questions patiently yes do you speak mandarin no that's for china chinese working under captain a today is captain saric password please he makes a point of greeting passengers in their own language i work here for for one year so i just just take a look at them and i know that what is their nationality is captain saric's always looking for new passengers to practice on sometime even have free time actors learn their language today he's mainly been practicing portuguese what is it means with a little help from his homemade phrasebook he can now greet passengers in russian good luck and korean han but he knows not to push it too far if i'm busy i i didn't do this because my boss will he can't gonna kill me [Music] next in line is 24 year old danny from wolverhampton he's left his family and friends to carve out a new life in thailand i was quiet last night my mum was crying my brother was fine being on your own that's the hard because you've got you've you've got no one you know what i mean and then you've left all your friends and your family and everything you know danny gambled everything on making it big as a dj i know i have loads of dj experience but i've watched the famous djs on youtube constantly and i'll watch them thinking i can do that if i'm better danny's brought over all his cds they're in his suitcase but finding that suitcase might not be easy i'm lost with more than 20 carousels baggage reclaims a bit like danny's record collection big play any music anything um drum bass techno [Music] [Music] baseline house garage jacking house not many people tech house depots i think this is the right one i'm not sure trance side trains just a way to see [Music] house dany finally tracks down the right luggage belt the whole life's in here for the for the near future anyway outside the airport he gets even luckier not only does the taxi match his suitcase but the driver speaks fluent english welcome thailand can i ask you a question why you won't come to bangkok what brought me to bangkok i've come to try and pursue my dj in korea i'm going to go to a few bars ask them if i can play hopefully if they say yes then play tonight everybody like to come to bangkok tell them because the reason why we are cool people bangkok may be cool and danny's hopes are high but can he really crack the city's famous nightclub scene while danny hits the town louise is going nowhere fast it's more than 24 hours since she and daughter lilia missed their flight home to paris and she can't pay won't pay for a new ticket if i have to pay for those tickets or whatever they want 30 baht if i have to pay for that um like i said i'm gonna have to not i can't pay my rent i can't sleep and i feel sad and i just wanna be in my home in my bed in my bed and take a shower and like count and i stare here and see them it's just horrible and just feels so sad so what did you do louise has a four o'clock appointment at the airline desk she knows this could be her last chance the chance is good but i don't like to pay right in that way i have to contact my boss yeah because actually you need to pay well that's what they've been telling me you know and the problem is that we did everything right and there is a major breach of protocol i'm studying with no answers and the prospect of more hours to fill the stress is taking its toll they keep bouncing me here and there and here and there and here and there you know it's supposed to be a holiday now it's just like a nightmare you know money tux [ __ ] walks while louise plots her escape the tourist police have a new case and here it is duncan and susan picked it up from the carousel but it's not theirs in all the years we've been traveling i've never done this before and i've picked up the wrong curve all i can plead in my own defense forgive me i'm a lawyer by profession is that the cases are absolutely identical i'm hoping we haven't spoiled somebody this holiday i probably haven't improved it the allies started but if they've got the wrong suitcase who's got theirs it's got all my clothes and absolutely every single thing that i need for my holiday um that's it really i mean i've got what i'm standing up in there lost luggage is one of the great holiday nightmares bangkok's no different to any other busy airport but it always seems worse when you're so far away from home this airport and its layout is different also in the fact that the language sort is completely unfamiliar all the signs it just disorientates you a little bit when you see writing in a language that you can't even read never mind understand duncan and susan aren't alone joining the lost luggage club today are geordi's gary and dave they've just touched down four hours late and two bags light we've decided that in dubai we'd stop and have some king crab and caviar and champagne and i don't drink so this is a bad idea once you start drinking champagne and you just went on holiday you just lose all track of time don't you and then pour it away you're like oh let's go and get the plane and then you watch it flying away so we had to get the next plate and said oh your baggage will be waiting there for you and it wasn't typical brits dave's come to thailand to study the ancient art of fire juggling but his missing bag has his fire juggling stick in it and without it oh please please please he can't fire juggle it's my first uh juggling fire stuff and it's probably about that tall i only paid 80 pounds for it but i've just had it it's the perfect way it's like it was perfect like designed for me you know so that's just what's okay back at the police station the staff are pulling out all the stops but with a connecting flight to catch time's running out just hoping to get it to us in sufficient time for us to make the connection we're still open we've still got an hour at the moment so it should be all right okay quickly the airline has news there are two bags left at the carousel and both match duncan and susan's as for gary and dave they've been sent a lost property but the staff can't find the staff oh no way no team is this yeah oh you can't help beef but the language barrier is always there yes right so this is actually happening now oh so now it's off to the airline desk i'm trying to laugh it off but i'm actually very upset unfortunately gary and dave aren't the only ones feeling the heat i'm just saying i haven't actually seen another bag as yet duncan's told to wait while susan goes back air side the moment of truth is approaching that's not it it's bigger like this the one that i need is like this exactly the same things are looking bleak for dave too his whole future as a fire juggler is in jeopardy with lots and lots of different symbols on it which are coloured symbols wounded absolutely devastated he plans on going to a school down in the island somewhere to teach how to do it as well so i think that's you know he will be very upset i feel like i feel like a donkey with a carrot it's like we have your bag we don't have your bag we have your bag we don't have your bag while gary and dave continue their search duncan and susan have reached the end of the line yes we have only this one can i go back i don't know how to go back i don't know how to go about it the couple just make their flight but they leave without susan's suitcase for gary and dave there's one last throw of the this is still dice one piece oh fantastic nothing's broke either yes not a big fence no oh no a mixture of 15 relieved 50 heavy hence yeah more relieved actually thank you [Music] in downtown bangkok danny's found the khao san road an old rice market now teaming with cafes and bars it's base camp for a million backpackers and the perfect place for an aspiring dj to land his first gig danny dreams of making it big on the city's club scene but first he needs somewhere to stay hmm this looks a friendly place time to give the thais a master class in bartering have you got a room for one cheapest one the cheapest one you have a room for 150 or not oh no never i thought you had one no um maybe if you could do one five price at a good price for us this one yeah yeah is it 300 baht you can do one for 350. one second if i pay you 350 you can give me an upgrade as a better a better room with aircon for 350. you can't yeah okay well it was worth a goal and with 50 baht to the pound he can take the hit i did try and i was like should i walk off and then i thought no i do like i'll just pay so i paid seven pen tonight for this so i don't know if that's expensive you see earphones spongebob flannel baseline jackie install my cds hopefully i'll use them after slippers everything i own now yeah this is it this is my life after a quick shower danny starts looking for work trying to look for bars or club signs everything's hidden he sets off with bags of optimism if i can get like three one hour or two hour one hour then we can go from there go to another one hello where's the manager but slowly reality bites i'm a dj from england do you have decks if i ask them you think they let me play or not oh no worries thank you anyway i'm so confident that one at least one bar or club will say yeah so we'll just keep going keep going keep going but there are only so many clubs even on khao san road and too many djs spoke to one of the staff and basically that's the lineup for tonight a lot of dj's in there as darkness falls the knockbacks keep coming so danny tries a new tactic no charge looking like that just me it's a desperate ploy but will the gamble pay news gonna off got uh somewhere to play and hopefully we put a good night on show him some proper english garage music so all the effort was worthwhile so danny's landed the gig but will it be his passport to success [Music] [Applause] [Music] back at the airport captain a's limbering up for another shift but it turns out keeping passengers in line is just one of her passions going to the gym that's my hobby when she's not in work she's working out the whole body my arm my back my shoulder my leg my stomach but when it comes to keeping order captain a never goes into battle empty-handed the police who work in the police station they carry the gun but for the immigration we didn't carry the gun we carry our immigration stamp yes that's our weapon like the gun captain a may be tough but she's by no means the toughest cookie in the immigration department that title goes to inspect him why a battle-hardened immigration officer who likes to play it by the book you need all your paperwork in order when she's on duty as vince is about to discover i need to know about this one templarly life yes vince flew out of germany on an emergency passport after realizing at the airport that his was out of date the passport was only meant to get him home to france but now he's used it to fly to thailand the lady from lufthansa hey your passport is too old yeah she said you have to go to the police and the german police yeah uh made this the command for you is mainly temple ali how long do you stay in 10 days 10 days because you are friends yeah i'm french here yes it says here it is good to live yeah and back to germany yes cannot too tired to enter to thai the worst that could happen is that they put me back on the plane and that would be really [ __ ] i i took my i took the decision to come here on the very last minute that's why i didn't i didn't check my passport i checked like a dozen times if i if it was right here with me in my pocket but never check the expiration date this one is like a situation that i don't like he cannot enter y sends vince to the immigration detention center in the bowels of the building for most visitors it's the first stop before deportation the decision rests with captain [ __ ] porn and his interpreter sasekamal so um he said that um he allowed you to stay here for one more day one more night and then tomorrow you try to contact with the embassy but um the thing is uh you cannot leave the airport nice information i have is that they're probably going to let me stay in the airport one night so i can call the french embassy tomorrow and try to get some better papers it's pretty much like a hotel that you have to stay in the airport since you cannot leave the country but it has to be on your expand so it's just like the hotel i'm feeling lost in translation do you know what's happening to my luggage just one moment so um for now your luggage um is electron is in the storage area and then we wait and see if tomorrow we can leave the airport or not vince may have escaped deportation for now but he faces an uncomfortable stay with no luggage at the transit hotel i'm not angry or anything because i know i screwed up but i'm anxious i'm tired [Music] while vince awaits his fate two other travelers are about to have theirs decided [Music] michael and jake are trying to make their way back to liverpool after their holiday in thailand but they forgot to read the small print our travel agent in the uk never said anything about needing a visa to thailand at all so when we got to checking in heathrow we're like no girl goes have you got a visa like what visa so the boys took out a standard 30-day visa exemption when they landed in bangkok 33 days ago [Music] yeah so we've been over three days over every day we thought it was two but she said it's three so we'll take a word for it for inspect and why this one's a routine case she gets it all the time from brits abroad many passengers from uh british that i see it's not the extension right it's me tagged because didn't check about visa she's happy to settle this kind of case with a fine the only question is how much at immigration the boys are stopped and escorted to a back room they're about to find out yeah yeah three days i think it's three days the 1500 bar 1500 baht might sound a lot in fact it's around 30 pounds but even so money as well so that's best part of 15 bottles left sign there might we have problem getting into thailand in the future okay no problem good we want to come back we like thailand had a good night out in bangkok we spent a lot more than 30 pounds in liverpool getting drunk yeah so it was cheaper in bangkok so you thought it was an investment thank you thank you so the boys can leave the country with their reputations intact and just a small dent in their wallets [Music] looks like vince is leaving too but his departure's not quite so happy after entering thailand with the wrong papers he got a late night call at his transit hotel they called me almost one hour ago to tell me that they're putting me back in a flight in the next two hours so i'm gonna finish packing and get back on the second 10 hour flight in a row pretty much it poor vince a 20-hour round trip and he never even left the airport meanwhile louise and lilia have been called back to the airline desk to learn their fate [Music] okay and today if you don't get on the flight next time i have to charge you 340 euros okay so we can go on this one yes thank you thank you it's the news louise was hoping for the airline will allow them both to check in for free better get out of here before they change their mind thank you i can't believe we're going away i'm never coming back to this [ __ ] country ever again in my life campbell's not like sorry i just want to get [ __ ] drunk as louise and lilia finally head home it's all about to kick off in downtown bangkok [Music] daddy's flagged a guest spot djing at a local bar but as khao san road comes alive he's feeling like death [Music] i think i've got sickness bug uh diarrhea just headaches i think just basically fatigue exhaustion yeah i've got no energy but i'm still going to give it a go hopefully the music will um get me going that's what i'm hoping anyway danny gets his head round the gear but just before the big gig he's caught short [Music] are his dreams of stardom about to go down the pan as the crowd gets restless danny returns in time to lay down some badass tunes it's not the liveliest bar and not the coolest crowd but somehow danny gets them going [Music] it's been a tough gig but his english house classics have broken down a few barriers and won him some new fans not normal english vomiting and diarrhea forgotten the gig has left danny flushed with success oh it's still racing a little bit but um yeah i think it went well i was so like just nervous when i was pressing the button i was a little bit out of time sometimes but obviously in the future i want to start producing want to start playing different different places different bars different clubs so yeah this is a step in the right direction so for a bit of a bit of sickness a bit of a headache just get over it he started small but his career could be about to take off
