Ross Kemp In Afghanistan

Ross Kemp In Afghanistan

Just a quick blog to say what a fantastic series this has been on Sky 1.

I've often said we've really got no idea what our brave soldiers go through over there and this series has backed that assumption up.



Contstant attacks, all manners of danger and of course the searing heat. Kemp is right there on the front line with a very brave cameraman and soundman. Every aspect seems to have been covered.

The scenes of ambushes and scrambling under fire, the confusion followed by sheer relief at survival, often expressed by a lot of swearing are amazing to watch. Also though the scenes from Helmet Cams and the aftermath when the "Friendly Fire" incident happened are pretty harrowing.

It's been excellent TV and there's still one Episode left.

...and good luck Bolton Wanderers in the UEFA Cup tonight against Real Madrid's poor relations "The Mattress Makers". Give 'em a spanking Bolton.
