Special Forces - Ultimate Hell Week
An ultimate endurance challenge as 29 of the UK's fittest men and women are pushed beyond their mental and physical limits by battle-hardened veterans from the world's toughest Special Forces.
Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff presents as 29 of the fittest men and women from all over the UK face the ultimate endurance challenge. Over the course of 12 days, our 'recruits' are pushed beyond their physical and mental limits by battle-hardened veterans from the world's toughest Special Forces, from the Navy Seals to the British SAS.
Based on the special forces' selection methods, every 48 hours the recruits are put through a set of challenges, each one designed to break them down and every one more difficult than the last. In the end there can only be one winner of Special Forces: Ultimate Hell Week.
2) Israeli Yamam
29 started, now 22 remain. Episode two sees recruits under the command of former Israeli Yamam operative Itay Gil. He is looking for strong leadership under extreme pressure. Brutal challenges result in hospitalisation and failure. Recruits get up close and personal with Israeli self defence system Krav Maga, strive to remove a Land Rover from a mud pit with their bare hands and are pushed beyond their physical limits in a punishing weight bearing race.
