It's getting more ridiculous by the second but this year's candidates, how have some of them not been vetted?!
 
Stopped watching after the first series... Its a load of staged bolloc ks with fame hungry wannabes. Its no different to all the other reality tv cr ap
 
I like the sas but mainly because you never used to hear about them they have a job and they did it Weather we knew it or not . Pimping the SAS brand out like this devalues them a in my mind .
 
It'ss watchable but it feels even more dramatised than before.

I mean it's blatant marketing for the army but that's also every action movie ever
 
The first series was genuine and interesting. It lost credibility bit by bit when Ant Middleton and the rest became celebrities.
 
That bit at the start where the DS were acting “ok boys let’s make it the toughest one yet” was pretty cringeworthy. I’ll still watch it and I don’t believe the competition side of it is staged. But then it’s one of the few things on tele I still enjoy.
 
Makes you wonder why people go in blind, thinking it will be a stroll or is that just for the audience figures.
 
I watched and wondered how a couple were doing so badly on the first task. It was walking up hill with a heavy bag, so something that could be trained for.
 
Loved the first couple of series of this show, in fact I binge watched them during a pretty hard point during my life and they gave me some encouragement. They’ve gone downhill a bit now, too much of a reality show now.
 
I know and work with a few former SAS blokes and they all hate this series. They seemed to have a special level of loathing for Ant Middleton. I enjoy the celeb version, but that's for sadistic reasons. :)
 
I find it hard to hate Ant Middleton. I guess those who've served with him may not like his celeb lifestyle.

I have respect for any bloke who can pass not only the parachute regiment course but also the Royal Marines. Then go SBS (he's not actually been in the SAS😂).

He fought in Iraq and afgan..... The very definition of a 'bloke' 👏 (if you can say that now?).
 
I'm friends with Jeff Brazier who did the first celeb season, it ain't staged, was really hard work apparently.

I met Foxy a couple of years ago at some work thing, turned up late, scruffy, mumbled a lot of nonsense, interesting character though
