Until the moment five villagers stuck in a flooded cave for more than a week were rescued, the group had no idea a rescue mission was even afoot.

It's a story with echoes of the famous Thai cave rescue of 2018 - and in fact, some of the same divers are involved. Today, we're taking you through what happened and where things stand. 

Hosts: Sam Koslowski and Billi FitzSimons
Producer: Rosa Bowden
