Part one of two. Return of the documentary following the building of Crossrail, with the first part charting the race to fix the railway's hi-tech software and systems so that the new line would be open in time for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. For more than 10 years, cameras have followed the engineers, technicians and transport staff under pressure to deliver their section of the project, including construction fixes in the tunnels, safety checks of the stations and the testing of the complex, bug-ridden train software, all in a bid to make it safe for passengers
