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.
5) Russian Spetznaz
After surviving the first four brutal training courses, the ten remaining recruits are about to enter a more psychologically challenging phase - the world of the Russian Spetznaz Special Forces, under the authority of veteran Sonny. With only 6 places available in next week's grand final, the recruits will have to draw on every ounce of their depleted reserves to make it through 48 hours of rigorous mental and physical testing. From carrying heavy weights for miles through the gruelling hills of south Wales to having their wits tested under extreme mental endurance, the recruits will be marked down for the smallest mistake and any weakness shown could mean not making it to the final. Who will be in the final 6?
