Dont you mean the "P-Company - Three Weeks of being stretched to the limit, and beyond"

If so, ive got that one. Its good because it is more up-to-date than "The Paras" bbc documentry. It does have alot of filming of the 'wasters' or the ones who are struggling with the course, would be nice to see how it is actually done, as oppose to how it is not done!

Recomend it though. Watch it before you go to do a long tab or something, gets me really motivated, (that and listning to Daft Punk - Harder, better, faster, stronger :P )

When you watch the vid, look out for the guy who did All Arms Commando Course a few years back, he cant hack p-coy and gets binned...albeit he did have ankle problems, and he was pathetic. Makes me wonder how he actually passed the Commando Course when it is harder than p-coy :oops: ......just kidding fellas, dont want to start a heated debate. :D

Well, I think it was during the transition from SLR to Sa-80s, so late 80s? As the recruits use SLRs to tab with and you see a para with an SA-80. My poers of deduction must amaze you all!
