I liked SAS Survival Secrets where Eddie's looks would say 1000 words. Classic when he was talking about the wire saw that can be used for cutting wood "amongst other things :wink: " Brilliant

His conversations with Mac where also a highlight. Colourful.

Both Eddie and Mac had long carreers in 22.

when that Thai Boxer guy didn't want to give up and was in tears, eddie NEARLY patted him on the back, but checked it. I think he is human.

Brilliant when talking about intelligent or not. :evil:

Maybe - but i'm a fast runner and all Eddie appears to be able to manage these days is a waddle...

I was never that fast, I could keep going though and thats what counts in the end ENDURANCE. the use of the regimental Prayer seems apt.

My eldest trooper , sorry "son" turned round to me and asked what the kick boxer was waiting for

I reckon he was waiting for ES to tell him he'd done well and pat him on the back

Maybe happened off camera , who can tell

Just goes to show its not all muscle though , look at that 50 year old doctor !

God knows, how is power boat racing going to make you fit for Selection? Most the others are fell runners etc.

I think you should have a bit more respect for Eddie,being as he has done selection and you havn't.
The body takes a hell of a battering in the services so eventually it gets worn out.
People carry permenant injury's that they have to put up with.
Its his experiance that he is putting into the programe, not his ability to run about.
I think the power boat women is doing well,right attitude towards the tossers who were late on stag.
She's got a gob on her, but it would straighten out with experiance.
O.K i wouldnt mind sharing a basher with her.
The guy using his silvermans (compass) against his weapon,classic mistake.
I used to be in the SASS (Saturday and Sunday Soldier)
