1SL on Andrew Marr

Having just watched the interview, it seemed like it went well for 1 SL.

Started anti-piracy ops off East Africa, moved to Herrick (30% of troops in theatre are RN), then touched on CVF before Marr dropped in the line

"I bet you love the RAF".

1SL answered well - talks of robust discussions but no threat to retire early...and if he was considering ending his career, he wouldn't talk about it in public.

As a people watcher - I would say that the robust discussions have been a bit heated.
