This new series starts tomorrow at 9pm on BBC1, I’m really looking forward to it. It’s about the formation of the SAS during WW2 and their exploits thereafter. Apparently it was shown to past and present members of the regiment and they approved it as very authentic.

It was of course the dramatized version of what happened, we enjoyed binge watching and I’m sure that the story line was pretty accurate. Was the constant swearing really a true reflection of army speech at that time ? or was it deliberately spice up for modern effect. As For Jack O’Connell playing Bond maybe, he is a very talented actor

A good friends father was in the SAS towards the end of WW2.
A lot of his story is documented but the family have little detail as he didn’t feel able to tell his full story.
He was a true gentleman.
