SAS Ultimate Force - Drama Series from Britian
-
Very interesting drama series that is make in british. Have a chance of viewing seaon 1, 2, 3 in scotland, did not manage to catch the season 4.
Very real life situation, drills, weapons and fighting tactics shown. Also show that SAS are well train soldiers but not rambo that cannot die or injuried, it show a very true side of taking casulities.
Feature very real life SAS operations, including ship boarding, airplane boarding, and build storming in different episodes ...
It was a great drama as they don't just like most show - show that the enemy as idiot and unprofessional, all die once they are stormed ....
Don't think it will be shown in Singapore, as british show are more expensive. -
I saw one episode, didn't think it was that good. The episode I saw was when they had a major blue on blue situation, the team stormed a ship and killed all the French operatives who were undercover on the ship.
I felt they had pretty poor trigger discipline and muzzle control.
I believe they didn't make a 4th Season.
Doubt it will ever been shown in Singapore without a lot of censoring, the show can be considered quite violent. -
I live in the UK but only caught a few episodes ( may be 3 at most). I notice that they have female operatives... one is a MO and the other is an operator. It is quite realistic in terms of scenarios and locations ( I know because I have been to some of the buildings that were filmed). But as the series got older, their storyline became more unbelievable. Perhaps they were running out of ideas ???
There is a new drama series featuring MI6 , the British secret service , called " Spooks". This one also has a lot of action but from the secret service viewpoint. But the storylines now are getting too fantastic. -
Cannot say they are poor discipline and muzzle control, because of the unquie situation.Originally posted by Raptor937:I saw one episode, didn't think it was that good.

The situation being unknown armed men ( possible terrorists) on a ship is in your harbour, SAS is task to observe and to go in to put tracker on the ship.
The situation being a 2 man team that board the ship to install tracking devices is cut off from contact due to poor radio signal when they are in the ship. As the ship is about to move off, they did the only thing they can do, pose as custom officer to stop the ship from moving of using excuse of not enough paper work. However things went down hill when the french go jumpy, and put out guns, which lead to all out fire fight. When you got men down, in this situation, you don't stop even 1/2 way as is you stop they still shooting, you will die. -

From what I have heard, it is rubbish! I have not actually watched it, but any series with Ross Kemp in it must be rubbish.

well they did hired SAS consultants to direct the actions sequences. There is one which show the classic storming of the commerical jet, the drill is a real as you can get to see it .Originally posted by lwflee:From what I have heard, it is rubbish!

Also the storming of the embassy .
Maybe you should watch it first before you comment. -
I was talking about their weapon handling skills. Not the mission or the characters.Originally posted by storywolf:Cannot say they are poor discipline and muzzle control, because of the unquie situation.

Finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target and you are ready to fire.
Which wasn't the case in the episode I saw.
Link to HK-Pro they've got some screencaps there of the show.
