The really sad thing is that the series is preaching to the converted. Most viewers would have had respect for the guys n galls in field conditions anyway. The shocker was that it is almost WWI combat with bayonets and trenches rather then hi-tech. Award winning documentary and a shame that the MOD could not present Ross and his support crew with the appropriate medal for IMHO they deserve it.

It should be shown on terrestrial TV on a night when the other 4 stations has a power cut. Compulsive viewing.

"I fell asleep in Afghanistan and woke up in Birmingham; and it looked the same"

Priceless.......
