Contains some strong language.

When will the next episode be broadcasted?
The show is very interesting, I've seen some parts of a similar show at liveleak.com about the british royal marines in training and in Afghanistan it was something like "Commandos on the front line".

[Jimbuna]

Cool....thanks :up:

[Konovalov]

I watched the first episode on SKy One earlier this week. Excellent stuff. It is a five part series so another 4 nights of decent tv viewing for a change over the coming weeks. :yep:

[Jimbuna]

I read somewhere the other day (can't remember where) :damn: he said about the experience:

"That's the most effective laxative I've ever experienced" :lol:

Thanks for posting, respect to those guys. Wish i could join them, im pissed how weak our politicians are.:nope:

[Rotary Crewman]

Trust me, your politicians are doing you a favour.

[Happy Times]

Trust me, your politicians are doing you a favour.

Im not saying i would be happy but i dont believe in this that while others are fighting a common enemy, others just continue their lives as normal. I know im not too bad of a infantry soldier when it comes to skills. I might think different if i had a family, but at the moment i have no excuses as i believe taking the fight to them. My country should send more troops to Afganistan and engage the enemy. If they did that i would sign up.

Part 4 was on tonight. Excellent again. :yep:

There is one thing I would like to mention from tonights episode. 7th Platoon is interviewd after it lost three of it's men in a blue on blue incident where a US air strike killed three of 7th Platoon's men while in battle against the Taliban. None, absolutely none of the soldiers interviewed over the incident had a bad word to say about the US air support. None of them apportioned blame to the US. "**** happens" and "this is war" were the common lines and they said that without the US air support things would be a hell of a lot worse. It's only the darned media here in the UK, doesn't matter be it the Sun or any other paper, that beat up on the US, so as to try and make it look like they are supporting the British boys. What a load of crap. :nope:

While I'm at it I have to say that I am getting sick and tired of the massive burden that the US, Britain, my Australia, and Canada are taking in Afghanistan. There are quite a few NATO nations that aren't pulling their bloody weight in Afghansitan. :down:

[Q3ark]

Hi guys. Just thought i'd share with you some videos that I found on youtube, they are about the Royal Anglian regement in Afgan.

This second one is rather somber and shows the real cost of war

My total respect and admiration to all the boys and girls in the British armed forces wherever you are.

Not surprising.

I just watched thw entire series. Great show. It was very insightful. Thanks for sharing.

[Rotary Crewman]

I just wish this was on terrestrial (Free) television in the UK as it is a huge insight to what the guys are going through out there.

The whole of the UK needs to see this.

[Jimbuna]

Oh bumb. I completely forgot about this Monday night. Will have to watch the repeat on Sky sat channel some time this week.

[Rotary Crewman]

A superb last episode. I'm glad that Ross said exactly what the rest of the armed forces about what needs to happen.

You may have a great deal of respect Mr. Kemp, for our troops out there. I'm sure they have the same respect for you going out there and living as they live. Thank you for bringing the true picture of the Afghanistan war home to the percentage of the general public who hide behind copies of red top trash newspapers and enjoy GMTV with their important news about Britney Spears on a weekday morning, but still give derogatory opinions and comments to members of Her Majesty's Armed Forces.
