Format
editThe show pits contestants against harsh environments all around the world in a shortened two-week long training course that is designed to replicate a number of elements of the actual United Kingdom Special Forces selection course; a notoriously difficult programme that has been known to claim the lives of those who take it on, although the training has been modified to prevent fatalities.[2] The show's Directing Staff take the recruits through hostile and unforgiving warfare environments, while testing their mental and physical ability through a series of tests. Unlike many reality competition series, there are no formal elimination points; instead, contestants may be culled by the DS, voluntarily withdraw, or be medically withdrawn at any point prior to completion.[2]
History
editThe fourth series, which aired in early 2019, allowed female recruits to take part for the first time, in line with the Ministry of Defence's announcement that Special Forces selection would be open to women.[3] The fifth series proper aired in January and February 2020.[4]
Cast
editThe original Chief Instructor was Ant Middleton, who is an ex-United Kingdom Special Forces operator serving in the Special Boat Service.[5] He was dismissed from the show by Channel 4 in 2021 over his 'personal conduct'.[6] In October 2021, former United States Recon Marine Rudy Reyes was announced as the series's new Chief Instructor.[7] The other Directing Staff (DS) instructors are: Jason 'Foxy' Fox, a former SBS operator;[8] Mark 'Billy' Billingham, an ex-SAS Sergeant Major;[9] and veteran Navy SEAL Senior Chief Remi Adeleke who left in 2022, after appearing in that year's civilian and celebrity series.[10][11]
Series 8 saw the contestants tested in the jungle of Thung Ui, north Vietnam, and Mark 'Billy' Billingham as the Chief Instructor because of his extensive jungle warfare training. Joining the Directing Staff is Chris Oliver, a former Royal Marine Mountain Leader and ex-Special Boat Service operator.[12]
