No VWs = not though enough
jwpicton10 October 2022
I really enjoy this series. I'm a bit of an armchair viewer and could definitely do with some more exercise. So now that disclosure is out of the way I can launch into what's irking me about the series.

They have been way way way too soft on this lot. It should be getting steadily tougher as the series progresses. We should be seeing at LEAST one VW per episode. It should be an unusual talking point if there are NO VWs during an episode.

The whole thing of being pushed to their limit is a key component of the series. So for me it's starting to get boring, and although I think the psychology aspect is important, and that we see the staffs empathy, in a way they need to be a little LESS understanding.

The fact that episode 4 ends as it does is a complete failure of the series to deliver what it should be delivering. Really really dissapointing.

Best bit of tv ever

I just love this series, the physiological aspect alongside the laugh out loud moments generated by the way the staff talk to celebs is just tv gold. It just makes me feel so many different emotions and I can honestly say that there isn't much that's ever done the same.

The show has really gone downhill. Totally unrealistic selection

Warning: Spoilers
I am a HUGE fan of the regular SAS Who Dares Wins Series. This Celebrity Sas Who Dares Wins is just a joke. I just finished watching series 2 and I can't believe who actually got through the selection course- a One armed female!!!! Good on her for attempting the course but realistically There is NO WAY a one armed person, either male or female would pass the course, but she did!!!! I have HUGE Respect for the SAS soldiers and what they do but I am pretty sure that they would be outraged if they saw this. These guys have to operate in war zones and carry very heavy amounts of kit and supplies so having a disabled person pass the course is not realistic at all. The show needs to get back to its core requirements and actually pass people that would have a possible chance in passing the real SAS course. I am sorry Ant and the guys, I know that you mean well but it is lowering the integrity of the SAS Selection Course.

Loose the septics ....embarrassing !

Absolutely nothing without Ant Middleton! The new guy does my head in with his shirtless parading around and boxing while the other DSs are chatting or drinking coffee, he seems to have an innate need to look tough and it actually makes him look so painfully insecure. The black guy is better but he's often overshadowed by his shaggy-haired friend. This isn't SAS (or SBS, for that matter) anymore, it's simply a pair of American tough boys taking over a UK program and putting the British public through their paces, all while keeping in line with Channel 4's blatantly left-leaning agenda. The only highlight of this show now is Jason 'Foxy' Fox and Mark 'Billy' Billingham, with their straight-talking and quick wit when the recruits really mess up.

Shouldn't call SAS Who dares wins anymore why not SAS who cares losers.
