SAS Rogue Heroes 

BBC + iPlayer (6 episodes)

 

(No spoiler) 

Worth watching but somehow doesn't capture the very thing the subject is supposed to be about (IMO).

Yes, there is plenty of rat a tat tat of machine guns and daring deeds - But the fake beards, and the (mostly) Heavy Music soundtrack from the likes of AC/DC, Sabbath, Priest, Motorhead, Sham 69, Damned, Stranglers, Foghat (ex-Savoy Brown) while boosting the feeling of urgency in some of the story lines has no reality in something set in 1940's North Africa.

The fake beards are dismal, the heavy posing in sunglasses and the almost Hollywoodesque filming didn't do it for me.

 

Expected more :mad: but worth watching 8)

I have only seen the first episode and TBH that was enough,  I just saw a pair of show offs ( Posers) idiots.  To achieve the proven reputation the SAS has, they wouldn't be seen poncing around like the two Clowns mentioned.  :roll:

In an hour-or-so, I'll be watching yet another episode of "Spooks".

I've been hooked (again) since coming back to the UK, and the fact that it's on every weeknight means that I don't have to wait a whole week for the follow-up!

Great series, and very far sighted script-wise.

I just watched last nights Louis Theroux interview with Judi Dench (BBC Two). After a naff day it did make me laugh a fair bit.

Always love a Louis Theroux documentary / interview and was very happy to see these new episodes with British celebrities. Enjoyed the Stormzy one as well.

 

But nothing will beat his dead pan face when he's talking to the likes of people from Westboro Baptist Church

The repeat of the documentary which followed the dramatisation is far better viewing
