And I thought it was just us Irish that swore all the time!

It looks like the IP assessed the risks and carried out the "rescue" in as safe a manner as was possible. He was mindful of his tail rotor so it was a good lesson for the student. Granted, it shouldn't be something the new PPL should try for a long, long time, but at least he had an off-airport landing and departure demonstrated to him.
