In this critically acclaimed series Ross Kemp joins his father's old regiment, 1 Royal Anglian, and travels to Britain's frontline in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, to experience, for himself, the British Army's fight against the Taliban.
Filmed during the summer of 2007, Ross dodges the bullets to witness and endure the worst fighting British troops have suffered for over fifty years.
Candid and brutally honest, this series is the first on UK television to show in detail what our soldiers are doing to win peace in this war torn land. Extraordinary battle scenes show us in close up the brutality of war. Off the battlefield we find out what a soldier's life is like and why they continue to fight this fanatical enemy. And with exclusive footage, we tell the stories of those who made the ultimate sacrifice, along with powerful and moving interviews from relatives bereaving the loss of their sons.
This hard hitting and thought provoking series of 5 programmes is Ross' most difficult assignment to date.

This dvd shows how bad the boys have it out in afganistan, its just brilliant. You get to see what they do on a daily basis, shows you parts of there training and how they live out there. It is also very touching and vert sad in parts of this program. I would deffo recommend this to anyone who wants to find out whats it is like out there! Though one thing is for sure, what he says at the end of the last episode i strongly agree with, this is deffo a 5 star dvd!!
