Gladiators Of WWII - The SAS (Special Air Service)

This programme examines the SAS, from its conception as a shall, deep-penetration raiding force led by Commando Office David Stirling in the deserts of Libya and Egypt in World War II, to its work on the modern day battlefields in the Falklands and Gulf wars. Today the SAS is among the best special services in the world. Its men are the toughest of the tough, and those who have served in it over the 60 years since its inception have lived and fought unswervingly under the motto on their badges: Who Dares Wins.
