Recorded it on the old sky plus,.. set a series link on it.
Thought it was really good.
Don't know if UKSF do it but thought the "Hares and Hounds" was a really good test. Basically exactly like the game, a member of DS starts running and at a given time later the recruits are sent after him..
Also the "Operation Von Hempski" (must be named after a former member) was a real sickener. Would not like to do that!!
24 hours on a given bearing, keep going no matter whats in the way.
Oh yeah, with loads of bergen weight, a weapon and a 44lb jerry can each. And a spare jerry can that everyone had to carry at some point. (so 2 jerry cans at once!)..
Looking forward to next weeks.

Sounds interesting, I'm sure there will be a repeat at some point before next week won't there? Digital TV channels usually do nothing but recycle stuff they have shown ten times before.... *cough* FILMFOUR *cough*.

This series was called 'NZSAS First Among Equals' in New Zealand. It's on youtube under this heading.
