Just e-mailed ITV:
Thank you for your email.

Commando: Britain's Front Line is part of the Autumn schedules on ITV1.
Exact start for the series has still to be confirmed.

Hope this is of help.

I think its the fact that out of all of them they get the wounded guy to drive them out.

Hes doing his job spot on then. Despite being hurt he carried on being a soldier and took instruction well even though he was in serious pain. Thats top professionalisum there.

It just shows how well trained our armed forces are.

Hi Guys. The series called "Commando: On the Front Line" will be an eight part series starting on Sept 20th at 21.00. The first programme is an hour. The following seven will be half hours screened at 22.00 every thursday. In the new year ITV4 will repeat the series but all eight programmes will be re cut so all are one hour in length (ie 8 x 60 mins) On the 25th Sept there is a Special on ITV4 about the old geezer filmmaker who attempted the Commando tests (erm...that would be me)

Hope you enjoy the series (and book). I've tried to get it as realistic as possible.

I think this is what the call 'straight from the horses mouth'

Also AJ, I know what you mean, it really shows the disicpline and training taking effect. You actually hear someone on the land rover telling the wounded man to make sure his firearm has its safety on while hes driving away.
