SAS: Rogue Warriors
Season 1 Episode 2 of 3
Ben Macintyre examines how continued success for the unit could only be achieved with ever more dangerous and ambitious missions, while David Stirling's new second-in-command Captain Paddy Mayne was an officer as unpredictable and dangerous as the phase of war that was about to begin. The historian also reveals how many SAS members were captured by the Germans - and hears the extraordinary story of two of them who outran their pursuers by surviving for three days in the desert without food or fresh water
SAS: Rogue Warriors airs on PBS America (Freeview) at 8:20 PM, Saturday 14 September.
