Meet the Immigrants - Episode 2

Sixty ferries make the crossing between Calais and Dover each day, carrying around 5,000 trucks. But freight is not their only cargo. Every day, refugees arrive in northern France from Africa and the Middle East hoping to enter the UK illegally. We meet 'Jamal', who has been living in a makeshift camp near Calais. The camp gets burned down by authorities so Jamal moves to Paris, where he meets fellow Afghani Wahid. In Bristol we meet Sardar, an Iraqi Kurd who came into the country hidden in a lorry six years ago. Now he has a job and wants to build a new life with his girlfriend Petrina. He's applied for leave to remain in Britain, but will he get it? Fellow Iraqi Kurd Armin works as a courier. He also smuggled himself in a lorry from Calais five years ago but hasn't been granted leave to remain.
