The boxset of season one and two of SAS Rogue Heroes. Season One: Cairo, 1941. David Stirling - an eccentric young officer, hospitalised after a training exercise went wrong - is bored. Convinced that traditional commando units don't work, he creates a radical plan that flies in the face of all accepted rules of modern warfare. He fights for permission to recruit the toughest, boldest and brightest soldiers for a small undercover unit that will create mayhem behind enemy lines. More rebels than soldiers, Stirling's team are every bit as complicated, flawed and reckless as they are astonishingly brave and heroic. Season Two: Series two returns to action with the troops in Spring 1943. Paddy Mayne takes control of the SAS following David Stirling's capture, and now attention must turn from the conflict in North Africa to mainland Europe. But GHQ have cast doubt over the future of the regiment, while the creation of a second unit and an influx of new arrivals make things even more difficult for the men. Can they prove that the SAS remain essential to the war, wherever it may lead them? The SAS have described the combat fighting in Italy as the most brutal they had ever endured, ensuring that season two will provide another action-packed outing.
